This is the first time I heard about this and the producers are Stallone and Klitschko brothers. However, I can't find any proof that the actors are working under "slave" contracts.

So, who would go and see it if it played over here and which actual boxer should have a musical made of their life?

They did a song in the ring prior to the Klit Wach fight. Never been a fan of musicals but this brought up a little bit of bile.

I'm off to see Swan Lake in January so no sly comments from me, Chris!

Is this the affect of the swear filter again? Is it the same one that changed Tyson Gay to Tyson Homosexual? (happened in a Canadian Christian Newspaper, I kid you not).

I'd watch it so long as Sly promises not to sing and to remain behind the scenes. Who else saw 'Rhinestone ' ?

Put him in the ring, Joe
Chicken a la carte
Let me have a wing, Joe
Tearing him apart
That chicken will crow

Let me have him Joe

Nice, Hibbz. Best musical number dealing with boxing ever. A personal favourite
