in the brit boxing forum they were talking about enzo macc starring in a new movie about howard winston. someone said (he would be like all the other boxers who starred in films). all of who......??? i can only think of tommy morrison in rocky 5 and i remember gary stretch being in a film but i dont recall any others. can you name any other boxers that have been in a movie?
Gary stretch was in dead mans shoes, great film. Roberto Duran in Rocky II. Steve Collins in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. And of course Mickey Rourke.
Mike Tyson in the Hangover, Dempsey in Requiem for a Heavyweight, Dempsey Baer and Carnera in The Prizefighter and the Lady, Baer also in The Harder They Fall
not exactly starring but Lennox and wlad in ocean's eleven, i'm sure hagler has appeared in a couple of movies
wasnt toney frazier in the film ali? and am sure le nnox plays some pirate radio DJ in a film called Johnny was or Johnny says or soemthing.
yeah, toney played frazier quiet well in that joke of a film, jamie fox is the only one to come out with any credit for his portrail of bundini brown. why do a film when Ali is still alive? and how the **** do they manage to make one of the most interesting and exciting sporting lives of that century so boring, for me it was just a pathetic attempt to try and get will smith an oscar which is evident in the movies he's done since then.
