Ali (Ali) has already been made.
LaMotta (Raging Bull) has already been made.
James Braddock (Cinderella Man) has already been made.
That's all I can think of right now 'cause I'm tired as ****
and I believe a Micky Ward movie is in the makings!
I'd like to see Robinson though, Mike Tyson (Think there actually is one) Hopkins, Joe Louis, Foreman, Gatti... There's a bunch of dudes that'd be cool to see a movie about.

Roy Jones Jr would be good aswell. Going from his robbery in the olympics to him being untouchable, then him getting KTFO

Marvelous Marvin Hagler.....where as a boy he witnessed the Newark riots that culminated in the destruction of the tenaments where he lived with a single mother,which led to the move to Massachusetts were he started to train in boxing....ending with the middleweight world title after beating Alan Minter to gain the crown who famously said in the build up to the fight "no black man will take my title"

A good one would be Michael Watson and how he came from nowhere to defeat Nigel Benn as a big underdog then failed in 3 attempts to win a title with the third ending in tragedy, and how this changed boxing for the good with new safety measures and then his biggest fight of all in trying to make a recovery and then running the london marathon.
Or maybe someone like Arnold Creme (Jersey Joe Walcott) and how he fought and failed 4 times to win the heavyweight title then finally succeeding in his fifth and final attempt to become at the time the oldest ever heavyweight champion.
