Firstly, if you're not into boxing, this isn't for you. Yes, there are some other issues and topics discussed, but if you don't like the boxers and more importantly, have an understanding of the era that is the primary focus of this series, then it's probably not for you.
If you are a boxing fan (and that means proper, professional boxing rather than the awful, influencer based nonsense that currently encroaches on the sport), then this is fantastic series.
As the title suggests, it covers 4 of the greatest British boxers in history and how their lives and careers intertwined. If you were alive at the time (and especially if you remember watching some of these fights), then it's great viewing. This isn't a fight for fight review of their respective careers, but instead focuses on their place in history and in a changing British society.
It's great to see the four of them talk about their lives, fights and challenges, including the tragedies that happened along the way.
There are lots of moving moments, like when Frank Bruno finally secured the world title he had been chasing for so long and also when Chris Eubank visits Michael Watson.
A thoroughly enjoyable trip down memory lane, stopping at lots of nostalgic places along the way.
It's great that someone took the time to do this and immortalise the stories of these men while there is still time. Well done Amazon for making something actually worth watching for a change!
