Actor Mickey Rourke "wins" boxing match (opponent takes obvious dive)


Mickey Rourke emerged victorious as he returned to the boxing ring on Friday - beating his opponent in minutes. The 62-year-old actor won via a TKO (technical knockout) in the second round against 29-year-old Elliot Seymour, who was counted out. Seymour went down twice during the match on Friday in Moscow, Russia. Rourke, who was returning to the boxing ring for the first time in 20 years, delivered a jab to the ribs, bringing Seymour to his knees before being counted out. After being crowned the winner, the actor lapped up cheers from the crowd and lifted his trainer Freddie Roach on top of his shoulders. Twitter quickly reacted to the win and while many congratulated the Mickey for beating someone half his age, others couldn't resist taking a swipe of their own. 'That was like watching Rocky, except Rockys a grandad with a really bad face lift! (sic),' Twitter user Neddy wrote. Others suggested the match - which was over before it began - was rigged. REY AN tweeted: 'Mickey Rourke fight deserves an Oscar nod instead of a title belt.' Another, Jon Lee, posted: 'So we're all gonna just agree to pretend that Mickey Rourke rigged boxing match didn't just happen right? Good talk.' http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2853452/Mickey-Rourke-s-king-ring-Actor-62-emerges-victorious-beats-boxing-opponent-half-age-minutes-takes-
