Quite Possible the Stupidest Boxing Movie of all times. Have no Idea what the Point Was. I did not find it remotely clever, funny, poignant, or hell ANYTHING. I Am basically really tired of your basic "Humpage" scenes. And I think it might have been more clever if they had Jesus Topless in the final Scenes instead of the ring girls. This was something Like "Rocky IV meets Fear of Loathing in Las Vegas"
I must say this Surprised being such a terrible film, because there were some good Actors in this Film, and Ron Shelton has done some decent things in the past. I think what happened was one morning Lolita Davidovich (Rons wife in real life) woke up one morning and told him, Honey, write and direct a movie for me in which my character is totally dis functional moron that the audience will hate throughout the entire film.
In the words of Antonio Banderas in this film...And this picture is almost enough to make "go queer for a year"
Oh Yeah, It might have been a nice touch to see the Ref Nude to....or perhaps George Forman or Lampley
What a waste of good energy, Money, and My time.
