    A boxing movie? Never heard of it.

    Vinny's picture had a cast of A-listers in it.

    Who all made terrible career moves by considering being in such a piece of filth. That turd was in the theaters for twelve and a half minutes.

    It was better than the Roberto Duran movie.

    Arron Earhart gave a movie a layer of depth as Wayne Rooney.

    Wasn't it Mike Myers who played him?

    Bump and aswell as what’s up with Pazienza being a bit of a knob and that, I’m sorry I’m not much aware of his personal life could someone please reiterate what he had done?

    I liked Paz. Fought with heart. Was active in the ring. Had some sassy attitude. The Haugen trilogy was great. His domination of Gilbert Dele was gold.

    He committed to appear at our fundraiser last month. Hotel, flight, meals all taken care of. The day he is to arrive he calls says he's drunk and will not make it. I understand things happen and to be honest we were told by several people you cannot count on him. In fact, Michael Spinks lady asked as soon as their plan landed, "Did Vinny make it."because she knew he had skipped other events.

    He was always in shape and was gutsy, but never beat an "A" level fighter in his career despite being a champion at a few different weights.

    Thinks of himself as a "legend", when the reality is, he was a glorified clubfighter.
