Knowing what little about boxing as I do, I can at least attest to the fact that the outcome of the title fight would be highly improbable today, given the media exposure and all. Perhaps that could have happened in the 30's and 40's, but not today.
The fight outcome and movie outcome was mega-disappointing. If Joe Schmo had produced, directed, and starred in this film it would have gotten no attention at all. I like Clint a lot and I'm a helluva fan, but I think this movie's attention is along the lines of The Emporer's New Clothes; people are afraid to admit they didn't like it because it's Clint, after all.
