História

Franklin Roy Bruno, MBE (born 16 November 1961) is a British former professional boxer who competed from 1982 to 1996. He had a highly publicised and eventful career, both in and out of the ring. The pinnacle of Bruno's boxing career was winning the WBC heavyweight title from Oliver McCall at a packed Wembley Stadium in 1995, in what was his fourth world championship challenge. Bruno faced multiple top-rated heavyweights throughout his career, including two fights against Mike Tyson in 1989 and 1996, and a domestic clash against Lennox Lewis in 1993. He was also known for his exceptional punching power, scoring 38 knockouts in 40 wins and giving him a 95% knockout-to-win ratio; his overall knockout percentage was 84.44%. Bruno has been ranked among BoxRec's 10 best heavyweights in the world 12 times, reaching his career-high ranking of world No.3 at the conclusion of 1984.[2] Like Henry Cooper before him, Bruno has remained a popular celebrity with the British public following his retirement from boxing, including his well-documented struggles with mental health.

Menino Cálcio: Um Lutador Duro na Queda
himself
Jimmy Connelly (Orlando Bloom) é um simples leiteiro que acaba se tornando um lutador de boxe. Esta comédia foi filmada no estilo que os americanos e ingleses chamam de "mockumentary" uma situação que nunca aconteceu tratada como se fosse a versão de uma história real. É assim que a vida de Jimmy, que treina boxe nas horas vagas, muda completamente quando se ve às voltas com um desafio que ele jamais imaginou enfrentar: entrar numa briga contra o campeão mundial. Entra em cena Herbie Bush (Omid Djalili), o organizador da luta que tenta transformar Jimmy num grande boxeador. Mais do que a luta em si, o que realmente assusta o rapaz é todo o assédio da midia e a expectativa que se formou em torno do combate. Mas o que ninguém suspeita é que todo o leite que ele consumiu em seus tempos de entregador Lhe reservará uma grande surpresa. O filme satiriza o mundo do boxe e o universo das celebridades instantâneas, tão em voga nos dias de hoje.
