Say what you will about Madonna, the woman remains one of the most vigilant performers out there - always looking for new avenues of business.

Now comes word from Hollywood.com via Cinema Blend that she might be following in her husband's footsteps and step behind the camera for the boxing film "Blade to the Heat".

The story is based on the subject matter of the documentary "Ring of Fire" which was about the real life match between Emile Griffith and Benny 'Kid' Paret who fought three times.

An angry Griffith, taunted by Paret, won it in a barrage of punches and seriously injured Paret - leaving him in a coma which he died from ten days later.

Since the bout was nationally televised from MAdison Square Garden, it was the first time real-life injuries which resulted in death were shown on television.
