James J. Braddock - Guestbook
Welcome to the official guestbook of the James J Braddock website. Due to spam, we have been forced stop guestbook entries.
I saw the movie Cinderella Man last night and i must say that James J Braddock is my hero! His is a story that inspires from the core and makes one realise that with grit and determination nothing is impossible. To me he was and will remain the greatest boxer of all times and a wonderful human being!!

Would we all feel secure if James Braddock was a political leader in today's troubled world.Wouldn't it be good if Bush,Blair and Howard were of such character that they were good enough to be worthy of tying James's shoelaces.Thankyou for the privledge of seeing the greatness of such a humble,decent man.

I have just seen the film and WOW what an inspirational man. If there were more men like him in todays world I would certainly feel a lot happier and safer. This site is a credit to JJ Braddock and ALL of his family. Thank you for sharing all the story and photos with the world, I hope you all feel as proud as he so obviously did.

This movie reminds me what humility, integrity and courage is all about. Valure which are fast forgotten in today worlds..I've have no basic idea who Jimmy was prior to seeing this movie and this movie show that there are many heroes out there...people like Jimmy and Terry Fox are truly inspirational!

A great boxer but an even greater MAN. The fact that he returned the money given to him by the welfare system, so that others could benefit, is living proof of this. A well-done, fascinating movie.

What a guy !!. Great movie and I would have loved to see some real footage of the real James Braddock. Hopefully Russell Crowe did him justice. His family must be so proud of him. Congratulations, we need people like him in this world now. A very decent human being.

What a fine human being James J Braddock was. Seeing the movie made my wife and I feel very inadequate in our resolve and moral standing. This will be one of my all time favouite stories.
It is great to see his family's pride in telling the story through this site as well. A truely incredible legacy to be left.

Very refreshing for all the minds, like for all the people that look for an inspirations to grow with the life experience.Is a spectacular movie and the history are impressive face to the fact that James have fight to be the man and thinking in the life of all the family like the best thing ever in the world and not in their money, but the one to eat and to give to they childrens and wife. for sure i understand why he have inspired all the american fans of Box and the people that love sports in the general.

VI LA PELICULA.TAL VEZ NO REFLEJA TODO LO QUE ESTE HOMBRE HIZOPERO RESCATA LA ESENCIA COMBATIVA DEL SER HUMANO, LAS MOTIVACIONES DEBIDAS A LA RESPONSABILIDADES Y SABER QUE SIEMPRE...SIEMPRE...SE PUEDE

My wife and I have just watched the movie and teached the story. We hadn't heard of Mr. Braddock. We loved this man and his family. Thanks for movie, thank you Miramax.

James J. Braddock is an inspiration not only to aspiring boxers around the world. But also for the very simple fact that James could do anything to keep his family happy. I love that quality of James above all cuts jabs n so on. I think his family has done very well to keep his name alive in this website. Thank you

A truely inspirational person. Not only as a fighter and hero of an America suffering through one of the darkest periods in their short history but also as an exceptional human being, father, husband, friend and mentor to generations to come. I loved the movie and will now read the book.
Gavin Stewart - Sydney, Nsw Australia [2005-10-04 09:42:59]
The movie is wonderful, but it only could be that way because of the story of this family. A strong guy with a strong wife.

I watched the movie last night and it struck me of being a family man. J.J. inspired me to every challenge I take every day. It gives me hope for my future. I really admired Mr. Crowe as a versatile actor. God bless...
James J De La Cruz - Iloilo City, Philippines Philippines [2005-10-04 08:50:31]
The story has really touched my heart. The way they stuck together as a family through thick and thin is truly an inspiration and should be a lesson for us all.

What a wonderful husband and father to which all men should aspire. You yanks have some amazing heros that no-one ever hears anything about - now I'll read the book. And what a fantastic actor is Russell Crowe? This one should get Oscars for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director and dare I say it, Best Film!
Rae Elizabeth Williams - Newcastle, New South Wales Australia [2005-10-04 03:13:18]
What a marvellous lesson of life the story of this great man has given me. My wife and I were astonished by the powerful of the film which shows how we all should always be. This fighter has really taught us the value of family, friendship and love. I would see this movie hundreds of times even if I`d burst in tears each time. Wonderful
David Rivera - Lima, Lima Peru [2005-10-04 00:44:41]
Just come in from seeing the film and what an AWESOME movie. I, and my 15 year old nephew thoroughly enjoyed the portrayal of a real hero.
