Pick your movie of the week: Boxing! (June 10-16/16)

This week we lost one of the greatest athletes who ever lived. Muhammad Ali not only dominated his sport, he also stood up against bullies, oppressive authority, and injustice in the world with the same kind of courage and fearlessness that he demonstrated in the ring. In memory of him, this week’s picks are boxing films. You will notice that Rocky is omitted. I think that would be too obvious of a win. I also chose to leave out the documentary When We Were Kings (1996) and the 2001 biopic Ali. Which of the following would you choose as this week’s movie?

Raging Bull (1980)

Million Dollar Baby (2004)

The Fighter (2010)
