bushido_man96 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Here's an interesting story: http://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/more-sports/mickey-rourkes-boxing-opponent-admits-to-taking-a-dive-for-dollar15000/ar-BBgSm6F?ocid=LENDHPI didn't even know this fight took place. Now, one side is claiming a fix, and the other is not. I'm not sure if either side can prove their story, and I am not really sure that I care, either.Was anyone else aware of this fight? Did anyone see it? Did anyone think the fix was on? https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wastelander Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I found out about the fight the day after it happened, but I was surprised that I hadn't seen any advertising leading up to it, even though it was in Russia. People were saying it looked fixed from the get-go, so I checked it out. Rourke dropped his opponent with a body shot, but that punch looked like it landed on his opponent's elbow/arm, not his body. Kind of suspicious. Rourke, to his credit, seemed legitimately surprised and happy--if the fight was fixed, I doubt he knew.
