THE BIBLE is like a game. The drama of fight week and fight night can be weird and overwhelming. But throughout its history, boxing has found itself in the news for the right reasons and the wrong reasons. Documentary and film makers are drawn to science fiction for all of the above and more.
Next month ‘Four Kings’ – a documentary looking back at Lennox Lewis vs. Frank Bruno and the Nigel Benn-Chris Eubank remake – will air on Amazon Prime and looks like another engrossing watch on the small screen.
However, it is not only the fighters who have their stories told in front of the camera. Today, it was announced that a documentary series following Eddie and Barry Hearn and the Matchroom empire will be shown on Netflix.
Debate News offers five more ideas for documentaries that can get your fans watching.
Manny vs. Mexico
A look back at Manny Pacquiao’s nine fights with Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales and Juan Manuel Marquez. Wouldn’t it be nice for all four of them to go into the same room where their battles, results and competition would be discussed. A trip to Mexico to interview fight fans and the media to get their views on Pacquiao could be eye-opening.
Story of Scott Harrison
A featherweight fighting machine from Scotland who would go on to fight some of the greatest featherweights of his era. Instead he spent more time in prison than in the boxing ring. Maybe it’s time to look at her life with Scott and those involved to make sure there is a balance.
Chocolate
A look back at the life and career of Roman ‘Chocolatito’ Gonzalez. A fan-favorite and modern boxing legend who continues to box despite his 20-year careerth a year. Everyone loves Chocolate.
Boxing and PEDs
We all know that boxing continues to be plagued by performance enhancing drugs but where did it start? Who is willing to go on camera and talk about it? What do we know and what we don’t know? And how big is the problem? This will require more than one episode, that’s for sure.
Itchy Knuckles
A three-part series that follows three fighters at different stages of their careers and must balance work and fighting. Selling tickets on the small hall circuit, for example, is a must and few people outside of the sport know about the payoff that the balancing act takes on fighters who don’t have a big TV promoter behind them.
