James J. Braddock, World Heavy-Weight Champion

Welcome to the official guestbook of the James J Braddock website. Due to spam, we have been forced stop guestbook entries.

My wife hates boxing films and would have refused to see the Cinderella Man if she had known anything about the story. Thankfully she didn't and we both thoroughly enjoyed this moving and inspirational movie. What a wonderful man James Braddock was and this movie, that brings to life his spirit and determination, is a fitting tribute to his memory. Go see this movie and be entertained and uplifted.

This movie left me speechless but I am slowly able to express what it made me feel. When you witness such a story, when you see how far a human being can go, you understand that absolutely nothing in this life is impossible. Humans are capable of the worst like the best, James J Braddock is an example of the best.

I thank Braddock for leaving his story to us as an example. His story is very inspiring. I also thank Hollywood for making his story as a film, and let people know and learn from this great guy

Just saw Cinderella Man- fantastic. Being Irish , I admire people like Roy Keane (football captain and a real leader) Michael Collins( the General who led the I.R.A in the War of Independence in the 1920's ) and Muhammed Ali. JJ Braddock just made my list.

Just came home from the Cinema after seeing Cinderella Man. The theatre broke out into applause ast the end of the movie. In inspiration to all there and I am going to take my 7 year old son, to be similarly inspired. Not to be a boxer, just to fight for a wonderful life. Go Jim!

When I was a child my father used to tell me about the great fighters, Carnero, Baer, Louis, Marciano. I saw "The Cinderella Man" last evening and much of what I had forgotten came rushing back. I inadvertently mentioned to my wife shortly into the film that Braddock was the guy who made the sensational comeback and won the world title. She wasn't impressed that I had let the cat out of the bag but notwithstanding we immensely enjoyed a wonderful portrayal of all that is best in the human spirit. Thank you.

Hi! I'm from the Philippines. I just wanted you to know that I loved the Cinderella Movie so much. It is a reflection of a man's strenght in the midst of his weakness. His ability and resilliency to stand against the tide of time and chance are worth remembering. He is really great!!!
Glenda D. Pingol - Makati City, Metro Manila Philippines [2005-09-24 02:48:35]

I watched the movie today and less than five minutes after it had begun, tears were already filling my eyes. I didn't know James J. Braddock before but I have been captivated by his story today, and the least I can say is that this man is inspiring. I am absolutely speechless.
Angèle - Lyon, Rhône-alpes France [2005-09-23 19:26:27]

My grandfather, who was a fight trainer & manager, saw the Baer - Braddock fight & spoke of it often. He said he never saw a fighter fight with more heart than Braddock in that fight, & when grandpa was training my father (a three times Golden Gloves champ ) his inspirations were Joe Louis & James J Braddock. Cinderella Man is a fitting tribute to a truly inspirational boxer, & its great to see Braddock get the "props" he deserves.

Thanks to you Jimmy that today I realise that life is certainly a fairy tale and hats off to Russel Crowe too for bringing James J. Braddock alive on the screen by his amazing potrayal of this extraordinary man....All I can say is that I shall never be th same again after watching this movie...I sure am a new person with a new attitude and outlook towards life....
