Andre The Giant - HBO Film

[Batman]

I've been waiting for this for ages, the trailer looks awesome

Andre was the big foot villain in Six Million Doller Man. Very hairy and scary.

I never met Andre but one of my former coworkers was a bartender at a hotel the wrasslers stayed at and she said to me that Andre was obviously gigantic and a little smelly as would be expected for a guy his size, but she said she always felt so bad for him because the white trash would ALWAYS want to fight him and they'd never leave him alone. Which I understand why SOME people might do that, but at the same time it had to be hard for Andre's humanity.


Can you imagine him in the UFC when he was like 20 years old? Or as a boxer?


I also heard the 30 for 30 on Ric Flair was awesome too.

We did have a boxer version of him in Nikoliv Valuev

Yeah he doesn't count he was big but he wasn't like Andre plus he never fought many live bodies.

So he was a more talented version? I remember Hulk Hogan picking him up.

Andre would also make the Iron Sheikh cry....the Iron Sheikh being a legit badass during his day. Hulk Hogan said that in the ring you were at Andre's mercy. The only guys who would really FIGHT Andre were other big dudes Black Jack Mulligan I've heard of having fights with Andre and maybe Bruiser Brody, I'm less sure of that, but Black Jack Mulligan was no slouch he was 6'9 320 and some times those wrasslers don't hold anything back during bouts but I believe most of the fighting between Mulligan and Andre was alcohol induced.

The Ric Flair one is good also. Well worth a watch
