Max Baer was too old to be still boxing


around 46 years of age.

reply

He wasn't boxing, he was acting, he made quite a few films.

reply

Agreed. That was my biggest problem with a great movie. It was fun having Baer in the movie, but just seemed too old for the part.

reply

Yeah, he looked too old to be the champ, but then again George Foreman managed it at 45!
