Raging Bull is one of my all time favourite films. You won't be disappointed. I'm not much on the sporting genre but another notable boxing film is Cinderella Man. One of the years best films, sooo deserves an Oscar.

I'd say Martial arts.

Danny, you sly boots. I didn't know you were into Van Damme. 😉

WindDancer THE LOOSE CANNON

He was a childhood hero for me 😉

Don't forget The Boxer with Daniel Day Lewis.

'The Boxer' is a pretty straightforward boxing title. 😛
