The story of Sacramento heavyweight boxing champion Max Baer, specifically his portrayal in the film Cinderella Man. Produced, written and researched by Chris Lango for KCRA. Reported by Ron Hyde.
@reactri Thats a bit f*****g harsh... This was a different era... One YOU have no clue about... different standards, different medical care... different boxing rules... things have changed... Max Baer was NOT a killer, just a decent humble man entertaining people, earning himself and for his family the best possible wage he could... Hell doesn't exist and this story has f**k all to do with religion so don't bring it into it..
I've seen the movie several times and like Baer after watching it.... Hardly like Mr. T.... at all... He didn't boast of killing campbell in the movie... He just told Braddock that people die in fairy tales all the time... I'm happy to see that Max was a great guy in real life but I didn't think of him as a monster in the movie ... just dangerous, which he obviously was !
@reactri max baer was a good guy and was fucked up after he killed thoes guys .. it was the fucking 20's .. not like he mean to, and the hospitals didnt have half the shit they do today ..... IT's BOXING, baer didnt run up and shoot somebody, he was doin his job
Max baer deserves to be called a horrible person and should be remembered as a man killer forever. Remember he killed 2 men and got away from that. He's probably burning in hell. MAX BAER IS A MAN KILLER!
