    The only actuall footage I've seen of Mickey Rouke is when he interupts an interview between Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank(that took so muh effoty to type) and James Toney pretty much calls out both of them. It's really funny because at that time Toney's wordds were very accurate and he would have indeed pwned both Benn and Eubank.

    Although I can't find it at this minute, I've seen a fight of his on youtube and it was clearly fixed.

    While they must have pulled it,Ive seen tape of him boxing online. He wasnt terrible,I mean not world class or anything.His issue as a boxer,was he wasnt crisp,and since he got a late re-start,he didnt have the work rate to not be crisp in his shots

    He was world class in terms of fouls.

    One of the dirtiest fighters i'VE EVER SEEN.

    I dont think alot of it was purposefull dirtieness he just couldnt aim his shots worth a crap.
    Like I said,none of his shots were crisp and tight

    I'm not sure, it's just when that volume lands on foul zones you assume that at least some of it was thrown with intent.

    Alot of it is also he keeps his head up,anything to the body he throws,he throws blind. Ive seen these kind of fighters before,it comes from down low,and he has no idea where its going to land.

    I heard James Toney beat Rourke up in the gym a few times. Anyone know if this is true

    The way he wound up his body shots,what should have been a hook,would turn in to an uppercut,but with his head up like that,he could never target those shots.
    But I dont think it was as purpusefull as the old Philly clinch and pound the thigh,or Holyfields head butt to the eye ridge.
    He really didnt know were in the hell the shot was headed

    I know Toney and Rourke are friends and they sparred back in the day and I'm sure Toney did get the better of him.

    I saw one of his fights , and he was very awkward, upright, and was kind of throw back style. He had pretty bad technique alot of slapping/reaching shots. Would have liked to see Tony Danza kick his ass. That would have been a big fight in the 80's.
