Pretty good script, gripping story, all star cast, my biggest gripe is ALI!! This has to be the worst casting choice by far. This is really where it dropped the ball. The guy looks nothing like Ali, I could forgive it if he at least embodied him in cadence, or tone, he didn't. They should have looked for a better option. Don Cheadle , Samuel Jackson, Terrance Howard, Kevin Hart, all kill it. All in all very enjoyable and worth a watch, but reallly. Absolute worst Ali of all time, and he has been played by a lot of different people. You wonder if the casting director was too young to know or care about Ali.
Kevin Hart's 'Fight Night...' is a promising addition to the black film landscape, showcasing a talented ensemble cast and a captivating storyline. I told ya'll the Philly boy has acting chops! I may have been critical of his last few stand-up specials, but I Kevin can act indeed.
With Hart Beat Productions teamed up with Will Packer Productions again, I hope to continue to see films with strong scripts, strong actors and quality production value that showcases the black experience in its many different facets. We deserve better than we get from Tyler P's revolving battered woman syndrome and low budget Tubi productions.
The stereotypical portrayal of Clifton Powell's 'Mush Mouth' and a few other mob boss characters like Boone, Tex, and Bunker feel overly caricatured. Look, I get that it is an ode to the blaxploitation era, and I'm a huge fan of period pieces, but the only believable figures of the interstate bosses are David Banner, Terrance Howard and of course, Sam Jackson. They can feel out of place in an otherwise well-crafted film.
Anyway, I'm wondering how Kevin got all these heavy hitters in one project, like Don Cheadle, Tarija P. Henson, Terrance and Sam? Not to mention he put together a talented cast of heist bandits who are all rising stars in their own right. Overall, I'm loving this mini-series, and I hope it's just the beginning of many more strong stories to come from Hart Beat Productions; especially in a time when Hollywood seems all too interested in remakes than original stories. You did that Kevin!

You know as series is phenomenal when the moment that it's over, you're immediately looking for the next release of the next episode. I haven't seen something this good in quite a long time. The storytelling is beyond phenomenal. I can't tell how much is true and how much is fictional so it makes me also want to do some research into the history on the story in the narrative. This is an absolute masterpiece the way the story is told combine with the music, combine with it story and just the overall acting. The guy who plays the character of Muhammad Ali, did a fantastic job, and that's quite a hard character to master. There are so much depth within each character arc that you just love the show. I can't wait for the next one and I hope that it can continue for five more episodes.
The show was pretty good until the last episode; had it not been so obtuse I might have given 8 or 9 stars. The series stars (and is produced) by Kevin Hart and the cast also includes Samuel L. Jackson, Don Cheadle, Taraji P. Henson, and her Hustle & Flow castmate, Terrance Howard. The story takes place in 1970 in Atlanta the scene of a heavyweight boxing match with Muhamad Ali facing Jerry Quarry. It is based (loosley) on actual events. It stars Hart, known as "Chicken Man" who is a small time numbers runner and self-described entrepreneur who tries to organized a party with all of the country's biggest Black Gangsters who are in town for the fight. Cheadle plays an Atlanta cop who is assigned to be a bodyguard for Ali who arrested Chicken Man years earlier which resulted in a perison term.
While Chicken Man is putting together the party, there are others who plan to rob the party and now use Chicken Man as a fall guy. The story now is how to find the true robbers because everyone thinks Chicken Man was behind the robbery, the police and the big gangsters. Each episode was better than the previous one until episode 8, the finale. It was silly, unblieveable, and rushed. All in all I still agve it 7 stars. It is a watchable series in my opinion.

Without a doubt, this is one of the best series I've seen in years. The cast is exceptional, and the writing is top-notch. While Kevin Hart shines in his role, it's the supporting cast that truly keeps the show afloat. Samuel delivers at his absolute best, Don Cheadle is fantastic, and Taraji steals the spotlight at times. What makes this series special, though, is the seamless chemistry among all the actors. With great suspense and compelling storytelling, it's a definite hit. The pacing is perfect, and the performances are outstanding. This is truly great television. I have to admit, I was initially skeptical, but I couldn't have been more wrong-I was completely hooked from start to finish. Bravo!"

- QuizMuhammad Ali vs. Jerry Quarry was billed as, "The Return of the Champion," and was a professional boxing match contested on October 26, 1970 at the Atlanta City Auditorium, for the Lineal heavyweight championship. This was Ali's first fight since his suspension from boxing in 1967. Ali was suspended for refusing to enlist in the United States Active Duty Services[Draft] to participate in the Vietnam War. This was a protest due to his Islamic beliefs, and against the racial bias, discrimination, and treatment towards African Americans at that time in The United States. Ali did not believe in fighting the Vietnam war stating, "My conscience won't let me go shoot my brother, or some darker people, or some poor hungry people in the mud for big powerful America. And shoot them for what? They never called me 'ni**er,' they never lynched me, they didn't put no dogs on me, they didn't rob me of my nationality, rape and kill my mother and father. Shoot them for what? How can I shoot them poor people? Just take me to jail."
