    bull****! ive read ali's autyobiography, a whole chapter(around40 pages) was devouted to patterson. he was super talented but didnt have the heart. his story is tragic. would be perfect for a movie.

    they made a sonny liston movie but that was unbelievably shite!

    50 Cent's acted before plus he's a bit closer to Floyd's actual size? And he's from NY to boot.

    50 was also a decent amateur boxer.

    The only problem is 50 Cent has a rugged masculine face. I can't think of any actor who has Floyd Patterson's boyish good looks. That is the true question.:deal
