sylvester stallone...actor or boxer??

[Toney Loc]

no he's actually trained with real boxers doing real boxing trained..duran,tarver,tommy morrison...he has real boxing training

Shavers put him down with a body shot. They were sparring and Earnie was going real easy on him then Sly tells him to punch him for real, down goes Stallone lol.

But Sly surely loves the sport ( I sounded somewhat gay)

Right, for the purpose of making the movies. He does train his body obviously on a regular basis, but it's more weight lifting than actual Boxing gym work.

I mean, depends how you look at it. If the Rocky movies were never made, would Boxing be any less of a sport without it? He's a known Boxing aficionado and has given guys like Morrison and Tarver an opportunity on the big screen, but the Hall of Fame IMO should be people who left a lasting impression on the sport. Though Rocky won an Oscar and to me is still one of the great films of our generation, it still is what it is...a movie.

For that, why don't we induct Mickey Rourke? He actually competed and had a winning record before he retired, also endorses Boxing, and is a Hollywood heavyweight.

What?

He's an actor who likes to box on the side to me!
