Movies and TvShows featuring "max-baer" theme.

James J. Braddock, a washed-up boxer forced to give up his career due to a broken hand, takes on a fight against the number-two contender and unexpectedly knocks him out. Against his wife's wishes, Braddock returns to boxing and becomes a symbol of hope during the Great Depression. He faces Max Baer, the vicious champion, in a title fight and defies the odds to become the heavyweight champion of the world.

It's wartime 1942, and hapless entrepreneur Yaakov Gendelmayer has an idea for a morale-boosting publicity stunt: bring Jewish former heavyweight boxer Max Baer to Palestine to fight a German boxer, in an effort to recreate Baer's legendary bout against Hitler's darling, Max Schmeling. Sixty years later, Gendelmayer's son comes to Israel to meet old-timers and find out the truth about Max Baer's last right hook.
