Sort of interesting with Usher playing Sugar Ray.

After the "No Mas" fight they made it look like Duran just lost that fight & got the shot at Davey Moore as his next fight back.
I've heard about it, only because I found out Duran had been over to do a promotional tour for it.

Not too keen on these type of films as they're aimed at a completely different market to those that follow boxing.

Always hoped a company like Netflix would run an extended biopic on a boxer, effectively a career over several series.
