Was a fucking badass flick. Lance Hendrickson was fucking awesome in it too. William Forsythe rounding it out. Hell...even Canadian Strongman Tom Magee was in it.

Full film -

.

I once saw it on a double bill with "Showdown in Little Tokyo", pretty awesome. The guy that directed Stone Cold, Craig Baxley was a long established stunt man for years before the film, so that's why a lot of the action is so good -

Really cool movie thanks for the thread. I just watched it. Ended up downloading the movie from another site. But the youtube link is also good.

This movie is a cult classic like Roadhouse. But even more badass. The big guy he beat up in the fist fight was WSM competitor Tom Magee who came second in 1982 behind Bill Kazmaier.

Magee was assaulted in front of his home by six men in 2018. Here's a pic of his facial injuries.

Excellent movie. Really good. I've seen some of the fight scenes before but never the whole movie. Well worth it.

With due respect to Bosworth, BO Jackson pretty much had a great influence in ending Bosworth's pro career. Bosworth was never quite the same after Jackson powered over him over in the Raiders vs Seahawks game in '87. After that hit by Jackson Bosworth's shoulder was never quite the same.

Barry Switzer, the old school hard nose coach of Oklahoma, kicked Bosworth off the team for steroid abuse. Bosworth was picked up by Seattle in a supplemental drift as #1 pick.

Bo Jackson played MLB before signing with the Raiders, and played well. Once broke a bat in half his knee after striking out. (think it was for striking out) .

Jackson was natural powerful and gifted athlete who probably could excel in any sport.. Bosworth was a great college football player, but that does not always transfer over to the pro's. Long list of college stars who never quite made it in pro football.

Bo Jackson played only 3 or 4 years in the NFL. Couldn’t handle hits at the pro level.

Even in those few years, he never played close to a full season. I think it was because he was playing baseball simultaneously and only played in football games after the MLB season ended (typically in the middle of the NFL season).

His rushing stats are great if you extend them out over a full season and assume he'd produce at that same rate, but it's a big "what-if?".

Bo Jackson had that hip injury

...eventually lead to avascular necrosis

Bosworth football career went down hill after he tested positive for steroids. His regular tests led to him playing clean and he was terrible clean.

ill add this one as a movie here most have probably never seen, much better movie than stone cold, think bourne/john wick/taken

Bullshit! These myths about Bosworth just never die. That play was pumped up by the sports media but it wasn't all that great and nobody else would have stopped Jackson on that play especially at that angle.

Bosworth was injured in a playoff game against the Houston Oilers when the fullback hit him with a block and seriously injured his shoulder. He never recovered and failed the physical the next year and had to end his football career. While he was with the Seahawks he was actually the leading tackler and still had a few records up until a few years ago.

Stone Cold was a very good movie for it's budget and I was surprised his movies were all straight to DVD after that first big film. Maybe he was difficult to work with on set. Now he plays the sheriff on the Dr. Pepper college football commercials.

What the fuck happened to this guy? He looks like the virgin meme. He used to be pure chad. WTF?

We've all seen people lose muscle. Happens to almost everyone. But it's rare to see somebody turn into a complete stick-figure with literally zero muscularity.

Old age (63), plus tons of endurance work. He got big into bicycling and I think triathlon type stuff in the mid 90's, and every few years he'd get smaller and smaller. He was tall and a little lanky as a youngster, so I guess he's going back to that.

Edit, a few years ago -
