Could Ward have taken him? Ward's biggest disappointment is that while Bale, Leo and Adams all earned Oscar nominations for their performances, Wahlberg did not.

Roger Ebert, film critic of the Chicago Sun-Times, described him as having "less personality than the hero of any other boxing movie I can remember". If my character was crazy and jumping out of windows [like Bale's], maybe he would have, but it is what it is. It's no great spoiler to reveal that The Fighter obeys movie rules and closes at a narrative and emotional high point. Ward wins the big fight, family wounds are healed.

Roll credits. Everybody lived happily ever after, right? When he and Eklund first saw The Fighter at a private screening, Eklund hated it, says Ward, complaining that, "it made me look like a million bucks and him look like a two-dollar bill.

He didn't like it seeing all the drugs stuff, it brought him back to that time. But then he saw it again at the premiere, and he saw people clapping and crying and laughing and he felt proud. All his mistakes weren't for nothing. Mother and sisters have been less consolable, apparently, and the movie's family truce was only temporary.

Some of them don't talk to her at all. Some of them I talk to, and a couple of them I don't. I was loyal to my family, but obviously I got a wife and a daughter I got to take care of now. Ward's career continued beyond the frame of the movie. In his next fight, five months later, he lost his title and never regained it. He did, however, go on to box in some legendary fights, including a famous trilogy with Canadian Arturo Gatti.

These round slug-outs are what really sealed Ward's boxing reputation: evenly matched, both boxers refused to give in, and took injuries so punishing they ended up in hospital. Ring magazine nominated Ward's matches "Fight of the Year" three years running. Had The Fighter been a "proper" boxing movie it would have focused on this era.

Ward doesn't mind, though. As far as he's concerned, The Fighter hasn't changed his life at all. He was already a local hero, eulogised in songs, books and video games. He still runs a gym and trains young boxers in Lowell, as does his brother Dicky, who's now clean.
