Champions Forever is filmmaker Dimitri Logothetis' bouquet to past boxing greats. Adopting a "then and now" approach, Logothetis alternates clips of these fighters in their prime with recently filmed interviews. The five boxers spotlighted herein are Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, Ken Norton, Larry Holmes, and George Foreman--whose "prime", it would later turn out, hadn't quite passed yet. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This entry in ESPN's documentary series 30 for 30 explores the dramatic relationship between rival heavyweight boxers Muhammad Ali and Larry Holmes. Directed by Albert and David Maysles, the movie follows both men as they train for an upcoming title bout between the two. It becomes apparent that each has a deep and abiding respect for the other, but still wants to crush him on fight night. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi
