Default New Movie / FACING ALI

Guys, If you are a baby boomer and always loved the glory days of heavyweight boxing like I do, you have got to see this movie "Facing Ali".

Watch the little video:
http://www.facingalimovie.com/

I have watched this movie 4 times in three days. Absolutely incredible. I am told you can get it on Netflix to rent and see too. I just ordered it from Amazon to have. It is more of a documentary than a movie with a plot.

Terriffic inside interviews with George Foreman, Earnie Shavers, Larry Holms, Ron Lyle, Ken Norton Joe Frazier, George Chuvalo, Leon Spinks and others. It was as much about all of these guys as it was about Ali.

This movie is the best I have ever seen on boxing period!!!

It was very moving to hear comments from the guys at the end. Even though these guys were the baddest MFs on the planet, they are regular guys, . . . good guys. It moved me to hear Earnie Shavers say "Even though Ali doesnt feel bad about what happened to him, we do because we are the guys who fought him". Larry Holms talked about in his championship fight with Ali, how he was reluctant to hit Ali in the body because years earlier when he was Ali's sparing partner, he would see Ali in the mens room urinating blood as a result of kidney damage. Holmes said "I didn't want to do that to him"! Smokin Joe Fraziers eyes welled up when he spoke of Ali and he had to wipe tears away to continue, he spoke of how you have to walk "straight" in life. Ron Lyle, a guy who was in prison for murder when he was a kid spoke about the love Ali had for everyone. We think of these guys as the baddest dudes on the planet and on top of the world, but when you see them here, now, you realize they are just regular guys like us, . . . . good guys.

Great fight footage, incredible interviews and interesting inside information that you would never know.

If you liked heavyweight boxing during the glory years of the sport, this is the one to see!!! **FACING ALI**
