Netflix has released trailer for Vol 3. of “UNTOLD” sports docu-series featuring Jake Paul and Johnny Football.
Netflix’s Untold series has been telling the true stories behind memorable sporting moments since 2021. The first volume covered everything from the Malice at the Palace to Caitlyn Jenner to The Danbury Thrashers. Meanwhile, Volume Two included episodes about Manti Te’o, Tim Donaghy, and the 1983 America’s Cup. The documentaries, which seek to tell the real stories behind the events featured, have been well-received. The show holds a 95% aggregated rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Each episode is released as a standalone event.
The upcoming batch of episodes will highlight Jake Paul’s rise through the boxing world, Johnny Manziel’s time at Texas A&M, and the steroid scandal with Victor Conte’s BALCO, which infamously involved the likes of Jason Giambi and Barry Bonds.
Check out the official synopsis and trailer for “volume three” of Untold below, via Netflix:
Each character-driven story hinges on candid, intimate first-person accounts from those who lived it – to reveal the grit, resilience, heartbreak, triumph, and even humor beneath the sweat. Viewers are taken on a journey with Jake Paul as he aims to revolutionize the fight world, witness the rise and fall of Johnny Manziel, and delve into the dark web spun by Victor Conte and Balco, entangling top athletes in a steroid controversy.
Additionally, season three of Untold also includes what Netflix says is “the definitive account” of Urban Meyers’ and Tim Tebow’s Florida Gators teams that won the College Football National Championship in 2006 and 2008.
Volume Three of Untold is set to premiere this August, starting on August 1. The four-episode collection is diving deeper into controversy than ever before. There are episodes about the Urban Meyer-Tim Tebow era of the Florida Gators, Johnny Manziel, and Victor Conte. However, headlining the series is an episode about an oft-talked-about, much-maligned social media star turned boxer.
