"My face looks like a punching bag, so I just figured..."

sly needs a paycheck, so he's dusting off the yellow gloves. eonline reports:

"Cue "Eye of the Tiger"--the Italian Stallion is coming out of retirement for more one shot.
Sylvester Stallone has signed on to reprise his role as the boxing champ for a sixth installment in the once mighty franchise."

finally a reason for italian americans to be embarassed again. too much of that cool gangster/sopranos stuff. its time that they get taken down a notch...and i think sly is just the man to do it. i heard on stern that mr. t will be coming back for a part in the movie.

on another note, im curious if anyone knows a bloody thing about boxing anymore. i refuse to payperview ANY fight. i remember watching ali and spinks and sugar ray when i was a kid with my dad. i havent seen a heavyweight bout in probably two decades. tragic really
