A video game of a sport is not in fact the same thing as the sport. I know that's a shocking revelation but I'm here for you if you need me.

this isn't true I played a ton of California Games on the NES growing up and the first time I surfed for real I was great at it

Maybe you should stop making threads, Duck and Cover, if you're just going to be wrong about everything!

I wonder if the boxers get life time brain damage or/and other injuries from all that being punched. Eh probably not.

Sylvester Stallone was basically homeless and even had to sell his dog at one point trying to get that movie made. Studios offered him absolutely insane amounts of money for the screenplay if they could cast Burt Reynolds or James Caan as Rocky but Stallone flat-out refused and demanded to play the part himself.

if they were actually offering him insane amounts of money he could have just had his life pan out and be rich immediately (with his dog) instead of waiting

He was offered $350,000 back in 1976 (which again, is a crazy amount of money) but they would have just taken his script and dumped him. Who knows where he would've ended up.

For context, the budget of the entire movie was about $1 million.

They offered him about a quarter of a million dollars. That would be about $1.4 million with inflation.

Stallone made over 25 million dollars on the film with it pulling over 200 million dollars in the box office.

Then he went on to make a bunch of sequels that had similar success.

What an idiot.

Multiple youtube stars have mastered the sport of boxing. One even beat Floyd Mayweather, who used to be one of the best boxers to ever live (before the youtuber star beat him ofc)

I'm pretty sure punching people in the face is illegal so I don't know what this 'boxing' poo poo is. Seems like the police would just break that up.

If you really want to hate yourself, watch the Ali/Holmes bout from 1980. Even the commentators talked about how hosed up the fight was, during the actual fight.
