BT Sport has revealed the latest in its BT Sport Films documentary series, Make It Or Die Trying: The Frank Warren Story.
The film follows promoter Frank Warren from his humble origins in north London, through to the multi-million pound deals he has made in Las Vegas, USA at the peak of his career. Contributions from Mike Tyson, Bob Arum, Tyson Fury, Frank Bruno, Anthony Yarde, Daniel Dubois and Ricky Hatton, as well as Warren’s friends and family add detail to his eventful journey.
The documentary includes Warren’s experience surviving a shooting, his rocky relationship with Don King, his role in the return of Tyson Fury, and many more incidents through his life.
Directed and produced by Daryl Goodrich, with executive producer for BT Sport Sally Brown, Make It Or Die Trying: The Frank Warren Story will be broadcast at 9.30pm on BT Sport 1, on 11 April.
Warren said of the documentary charting his life to date: “I am delighted BT have decided to share my story. My 40 years in boxing have been nothing short of a rollercoaster but I wouldn’t have missed it for the world. I am thankful to everyone involved in the production and hope the fans, the very people that keep boxing alive, find it interesting and enjoy the film.”
Executive producer Brown added: “While sports fans will be familiar with the fighters in Warren’s stable, the story that surrounds the promoter behind them makes for compelling viewing. Make It Or Die trying: The Frank Warren Story will take viewers on a journey across decades of changing times in British boxing and give fans an intimate insight into the man behind some of the greatest British athletes in history and how, from humble beginnings, Warren rose to leave a legacy in his wake.”
