Andre Ward prepares to put Hollywood to sleep.

[billeau2]

Plot twist: Andre Ward is another Daniel Day-Lewis and wins an Oscar.

He subsequently reprised his role as a young boxer holding on to....well holding on period.

[billeau2]

we will never see Ward fight again

If he does really good doa? and if he has a comback fight against de la hoya doa? in both cases he would be clinching an oscar!

Fun facts: Ernie Shavers was considered for the role of Clubber Lang. Stallone sparred with him as an audition and grew frustrated when Shavers wouldn't throw anything more than soft pitty pats, leading to Stallone saying, "C'mon Ernie, show me something real." Shavers punched him once near the liver and Stallone immediately quit. Stallone later said, "that nearly killed me. I went straight to the men's room and threw up."

Also, Hulk Hogan received 10k for the role of Thunderlips. He said Stallone was maybe 150 pounds soaking wet but insisted on doing all the stunts for their fight himself. When it came time to do the body slam, Stallone spit up blood when Hogan landed on top of him. Stallone left the ring, wouldn't do another take on it, and spent the rest of the afternoon in his trailer.

Moral of the story; Sylvester Stallone was ****ing nuts.

Lol that's wild

[LSKennedy]

As far as I'm concerned he's not a boxer anymore.

[Craveman]

What the...
What's this...
Might as well throw Ortiz in the film too, as Ward's cutman.

[SN!PER]

Stallone should cast Andre Dirrell. Ever since the Abraham fight, I'm convinced he belongs on the silver screen.
