The Fight

on BBC Two England

2/4. Black and White. The 1938 title fight between two heavyweight rivals - America's Joe Louis and Germany's Max Schmeling - was sensationally billed as a showdown between US democracy and Nazi oppression. It was also a chance for African-American Louis to strike a blow for racial equality. Producer Tom Ware ; Executive producer Michael Poole
