It starts with Bruno – Britain’s first heavyweight hopeful for 100 years.
The popularity of boxing in Britain is through the roof. But a shocking moment in the ring makes the world stop and contemplate. As the dust settles, the appetite for fighting is as high as ever. It will be the biggest week in British boxing history - Benn VS Eubank & Lewis VS Bruno. The fights will attract millions of viewers worldwide. But could dirty tactics and injuries jeopardise the fights?
Bruno, Benn, Eubank and Lewis have all put British boxing right at the top of world stage, but personally they pay the price. Lewis is defeated for the first time in his career, Eubank is forced to retire after consecutive crushing defeats, Benn’s life becomes plagued by crime, drugs, and adultery, and Bruno’s mental health issues are worsening.
With Bruno, Benn & Eubank now in retirement, Lewis is the only one left fighting. He sees his chance to make history and if victorious, he would be Britain’s first undisputed champion. If it wasn’t for these four fighters, boxing would not be the sport it is today. They sacrificed everything to prove they were worthy, and in the process, they paved the way for and inspired the future generations.
