Really good, factual documentary with lots of insightful stuff that is until the wokery rears it's ugly head. There's literally no need to bring Bruno's race into it but the loons at sky can't help themselves.

Plot summary
This is a documentary film that covers the lives, careers and contrasting personalities of British heavyweight boxer Frank Bruno and the American Mike Tyson. From their difficult starts in life, that led them both to boxing as a path to avoid a life of crime, their boxing careers would be closely linked from the early days where they sparred together and culminating in two World Heavyweight Championship fights that defined their boxing legacies. Tyson was an fast vicious animal in the ring whilst Bruno lacked the speed but was a destroyer who could finish a fight with a single punch - their personalities outside the ring were just as contrasting as their boxing styles. This documentary plots the rise and fall of both fighters in both their boxing and personal lives and culminates with the two meeting up for the first time in decades to reflect on their entwined boxing journeys and reflect on their lives and careers.

It's a knockout
Touching
Having always viewed these fights as a tyson fan and from his perspective it was a great insight to see it from Brunos side. What a gentleman he is.
Glory days
Very insightful documentary about two of the most charismatic boxers of the 80's and 90's, it really captures just what a huge deal these two bouts were back in the day, Tyson was the most skiled heavyweight of all-time and this shows exactly how Don King ruined his career, Bruno was interesting inthis documentary also, he looked in pain during his panto era after being stopped by Tyson, I grew as a kid during that era when boxing was hugely popular, happy days, two great guys despite Mike being a troubled rapist.
