Fantastic documentry on what is a great man's life, not only was he a great boxer but stood up for what he thought was right. Thought it was sad to literally watch him get punch drunk at the end and for his trainers to say that it wasn't parkinson's but brain stem damage that made a once champion seem so frail.

I'm sorry I missed it, but he was indeed a legend, but unfortunately, a lot of people are still very bitter about him, and his success both in and out of the ring.
