i starting watching it last night, recored the remainder for my son. then recorded the whole thing. it is very good and really is good.

its about hte repercussions of the fight that occurred over 25 years ago.

luis resto (the winner) is in poverty and mental anguish over what happened. he claims innocence but is racked by guilt. he knew it was wrong but was young and impressionable.

billy collins died 9 months after due to a perhaps suicidal car crash. his family is still torn over the incident (and always will be)

panama lewis (the trainer of resto) declares innocence, he served jail time with resto for what happened, and is banned from being a cornerman for life. he still trains fighters in florida and seems to be afloat.

it examines what happens and brings some of the characters back together.

crazy? irrelevant in todays world? ask antonio margarito
