that's exactly what i did. i just got this on dvd then realised i had seen it airing on tv a few years ago, because i recall the stories george foreman told in this (unless he told the same story in another program) that had just stuck in my mind since, i had to take a break watching it because there is no way to get focus back on the documentary straight off. sir henry cooper looked like 60 year olds do today when he was in his 20's. the dvd has a great cover. its mentioned in this that the match with foreman was like a hollywood ending, and that it can't get more hollywood than that, and that's put together great in "when we were kings" featuring the all around drama, entertainment, to have that match by the end.



i stood by the station everyday,
waiting for you to step off the train,
after such a long time,
of you gone from town,
finally i walked off,
gave up on you coming along,
as the squeak of the train,
as didn't even look for you to come here,
when on the evening train there were madeleine,
i had given up hope when i turned,
please promise youll always be around i need you in my world.
