In 2009, the boxing scenes of the 2010 film The Fighter were shot here with Mark Wahlberg portraying Micky Ward, Lowell's own boxer who won a world championship, and Christian Bale portraying his brother Dicky Eklund.
After Biosse broke his hand he went to orthopedic hand surgeon Dr. Steven Margles in Burlington, Massachusetts, the same surgeon who operated on “Irish” Micky Ward and Paulie Malignaggi’s hands.
These include A Warrior's Heart, (the 2012 autobiography of Micky Ward from the movie The Fighter), the popular Geronimo Stilton series, and dozens of children's titles, as well.
Paramount Pictures has retained Bob Halloran as a technical consultant for the producers of the upcoming film The Fighter starring Mark Wahlberg as Micky Ward and Christian Bale as Micky's brother Dicky Eklund.
