Movies Great sports movies based on a true story or documentaries

[Mr. Shickadance]

So I’ve been watching hockey for the last few years but didn’t watch it growing up. So I’m sitting around watching the lightning vs the kings and thinking I don’t know much hockey history. So…

but I also figure why stop there? Why not every sport? Let’s do baseball , football, soccer, and hell let’s throw something like kabaddi in if you know one.
So movies I’ve seen:
Baseball:
Babe
A league of their own
Cobb
Moneyball
Football:
Brian’s song
Rudy
Soccer:
????
Hockey:
Miracle on ice ( I’ve never seen it)
Rugby:
????
Tennis:
????
Boxing:
Raging bull
The fighter
Figure skating:
I, Tonya ( haven’t seen)
Kabaddi:
????
MMA:

but you guys get the point, help a brotha out recommend some things.

The Netflix doc on the Danbury Trashers is fantastic.

Raging Bull
Ali

Still haven’t seen Ali but I have seen raging bull it’s a classic, I forgot to add boxing thanks for the reminder.

Man, I just thought about it.

ESPN's 30 for 30 would be perfect for you, if you haven't seen it yet.

Very first episode is about the trade for The Great One.

Some can some can’t all I know is woody harrelson could never get Rosie Perez in real life so it’s an absolute fiction
