Really good documentary about Michael Bentt on Netflix, goes over his career and he gives great insight into boxing and his upbringing. Says that getting hit by Herbie Hide is like sticking a knife into an electrical socket.

Was about to post the same. He's a charismatic dude with an interesting story and it was compellingly presented. Not many big 4 titlists finish with an 11-2 record.

Watched it last night, really interesting, he's very articulate and seems like a really nice guy, his dad however, what a orrible pudendum he was!

I just watched this last night. Very riveting story. He basically went from a so-called loser to champion in no time, and then quickly was out of the fight game soon after. A MUST SEE!

You gotta repect and admire Michael Bentt. Great story!

Just watched this, only disappointment was that it wasn't twice as long! Really good. Seems like a very likable bloke despite his tricky upbringing & has done some great work following the end of his boxing career. :TU:

Thought was good enough until all the back slapping at the end with Micky Rourke and the other actors. The one about the French golfer at the open was ok aswel :bag:

Enjoyed it. Was quite short though shame they didn't show a bit more fight footage.
