Please leave boxing alone!!

Warning: Spoilers
As a big boxing fan, I find myself more attracted to fight films than I really should be.

Please, please leave my favorite sport alone. I'm too much of a loser not to watch.

Did he not think to get someone on board who knew something about boxing when he made this (and hired himself as the protagonist). By the way, you are nowhere near 175 pound Light Heavyweight size, you could have made it about a 154 pound fighter and that's still a great division.

Why's your opponent sitting in the corner before the fight starts? That doesn't happen. You don't touch gloves then sit in your corner and get a pep talk. You don't get to sit until the end of round 1!

Why doesn't your build/ size change when you go from being a non- athlete to a full time boxer?

Why did you go from 0 bouts as an amateur straight into the pros?

Why was the number 7 spot in the WBC fighting in a bout against a novice from the club circuit?

Why do you throw straight arm punches with a really bent arm like a hook? You do know they're different punches right?

How is this the fight of the 21st century?

It's almost like you really hate boxing so you made a really flawed film to get your own back on the boxing community.
