I want to watch "Cindrella Man" when it comes out on disc. He was trained by a boxer for 5 weeks who went 15 with Ali and other greats. He also killed a guy in the ring.
The boxer's statement at the end of the training is that Russel Crowe now knows how to handle himself in a fight.
I wouldn't box with a guy like Crowe in a fight if attacked, however my size 12 Hi-Tecs would leave nice tread marks on his face. I know, tough talk (don't tell sensei), but I can't stand the guy. He's been in some great movies in parts that could have easily been filled by others.
