    Not a bad low-budget attempt, but the title is unforgivably stupid. Imagine naming a biopic on a great fighter, & naming it after their lowest career moment.

    Pretty sure no one bandied, "Spinks SD15 Ali," or, "Drama In The Bahamas" as potential titles for Michael Mann's Ali film.

    That Ving Rhames biopic of Sonny Liston was originally supposed to be called Night Train, an INFINITELY better title.

    How about the Roberto Duran story "No Mas"? :lol:

    Exactly. See the obvious folly?

    I agree, too, about Night Train. It's a shame that a lot of people mistakenly attribute, "The Bear" to Liston as his fighting alias. That was Clay nonsense. "The Night Train" was his legitimate handle.
