Facing Ali

Obviously it's about Ali, and the impact he has had on boxing (and the world). It's also about the impact boxing had on him, for better and worse, but also about his rivals lives. It's an interesting idea for a documentary... you learn about Ali, you learn about them as well. It's got a touching ending, and it was well put together.

This documentary tells the story of Muhammad Ali's career through the eyes of the people who faced him in the ring. It's a compelling approach, not only because it's fascinating to hear their perspective on their famous matches, but also because you hear their perspective on each other's matches. Worth a look if you have any interest in Ali.

"Facing Ali" was beautiful in showing the old boxers, talking about their moves, strategies, and pros and cons.

cool concept, but i thought it wasn't nearly focused enough.
