We are definitely in the true crime era of entertainment. Sometimes Hollywood takes a lot of liberties with those stories, but other times the truth is so much stranger than fiction, all producers need to do is tell us what happened.
Peacock’s new limited series, “Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist,” is based on a real robbery that happened in Atlanta during Muhammad Ali’s 1970 comeback fight. The story comes from the podcast, “Fight Night,” which is based on the wild real life characters and events surrounding the heist.
We know these sorts of series don’t always have time to include every detail of the crime and investigation, so we’ve gathered some of the most shocking revelations from the podcast into one place. As the drama unravels on-screen, bookmark this page and follow along with our recap of the incredible, wild true story behind “Fight Night.”
Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist” is now available to stream on Peacock.
