5.4 / 10

When the champ's promoter, Reverend Sultan, decides something new is needed to boost the marketability of the boxing matches, he searches and finds the only man to ever beat the champ. The problem is that he isn't a boxer anymore and he's white. However, once Reverend Sultan convinces him to fight, he goes into heavy training, while the confident champ takes it easy, and falls out of shape.

This comment section is funny, full of arguments about race. There are sooooo many factors yet people want to break it down to the color of skin. And of course there's disagreements because all colors have made their mark in sports, champions of all colors. If there's Jon Jones then there's GSP, If there's Serena there's Federer, if there's Woods there's Nicklaus, if there's Ali then there's Vlad Klitchko, if there's Coleman there's Yates, if there's Magic there's Bird, if there's Mays there's Cobb, if there's Hendrix then there's SRV...Biggie there's Eminem. If there's a great black running back then there's a great white quarterback. Blacks run fast, whites swim fast. Those events they do actually dominate. woopty doo. - @Friday, August 18, 2017 9:39 PM

Funny movie but a bit outdated, it's weird hearing them talk about how unlikely and unthinkable a white hw champ is, yet White Russians have been absolutely dominating the HW boxing scene lol I'm not just talking about the klitschkos either, I mean on an amateur, Olympic, and contender status level. - @Thursday, February 19, 2015 11:47 PM
