    Tyson ***** slaps Robert Downey Jnr in the film Black and White. The story goes that Tyson didnt realise that the camera's were filming this scene as the director wanted the authenticity of it ... cue the ***** Slap!!?
    Has to be one of the best lines in a film "...dont f**k with me,...cum drinker!!" :yep

    Wasnt Tyson in Crocodile Dundee 3, I think Mick stumbles across him meditating in a park

    I remember seeing a young George Foreman in a comedy with Bill Cosby

    George Chuvalo was in The Fly. He was the guy who got his arm snapped in the arm wrestling scene.

    Arguello and carlos Palomino was in some 70s-80s action film.

    I think Palomino was in a few films and TV shows.

    Also Jorge Arce appears on some sit-coms and comedy shows in Mexico.
