Summary: Dissapointed with documentary
Review: I own both 'When we were Kings' and 'Muhammad Ali: Greatest Fights (HBO)', I thought this DVD would complement my collection. It does not. The documentary does not show any of Ali's fights but gives you the fight summaries with the sound of the starting bell in the background. Ali's interviews are short (though some of them are rare footage). Two of Ali's greatest fights 'Rumble in the Jungle' and 'Thirller in Manilla' are treated like any other fight, with no emphasis on their importance in Ali's career. The summation in the ending is too abrupt and leaves a true Ali fan dissapointed with this short and commercially engineered documentary.
