In one moving scene, Ronnie says: "I just get up on a morning, and you know, takes a minute for me to get going.

No one finds it moving when it takes me a minute to get going.

Also I think his main issue is having surgeries to treat back problems. They usually cause more problems than they cure but surgeons over sell themselves.

Obviously he should stop competitive training after the first operation and definitely avoid the third.

He should never have had the first.

He should have got streched out and got his posture sorted. Made sure his stronger muscles weren't pulling the weaker back muscles out.

Suffering with problems with his back from a young age, Ronnie had refused to let the pain stop him becoming world champion.
