    To be fair to rourke, while not in the class of the guys mentioned, he was a professional fighter (here is his record http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=029155&cat=boxer). If i Recall properly there was some question marks on his opponents and his career was criticised at the time, but both guys have probably sparred worse fighers in their time.

    Would Mickey have to wear a dress and stand on a balcony first though?

    Rourke's pro' career was supposedly manafactured as well.

    Didn't James Toney spark him in training as well?

    I read in a rourke interview in fhm i believe that he was knocked out while sparring with tommy hearns, he said it was the hardest punch he ever took in his life and was vomiting days after
