This film is aimed at kids/teenagers

If you are over the age of 25 and are male or if you are a genuine fan of boxing you are unlikely to enjoy this film

Here are a few things that really wound me up about this film:

1) The storyline was beyond predictable. It's been done a million times. Where were the plot twists? The only twist is his wife dying which is in the synopsis.

2) There is no credible explanation as to how he has gone from living in this huge mansion with all his fancy cars, giving away rolexes to his pals for fun, to living in a bedsit with no food.

3) His record is 43 wins, 0 defeats, yet he is seen as a boxer who never bothers to block. Those are Mayweather stats. He would be one of the greatest of all time. But he is portrayed as a rough diamond. And the guy who is a young unheard of at the start of the film, a few months on, is described as technically the better fighter. This really ground my gears

4) The boxing scenes were so over the top, no one blocks. Every punch connects. I know it's only a film but I like a bit of realism

I had only heard good things about this film, although admittedly from an emotional young woman who obviously fancied the protagonist and my 22 year old house mate who would call any film he watched in the cinema, a work of art. I couldn't wait for it to end
