Fred "The Hammer" Williamson in I'm Gonna Git You Sucka.

What about Sly?

Not only did he capture the hearts of the entire USA but also communist russia as a Heavyweight superstar...



But he also had time to help out the then struggling sport of arm wrestling...



And he also beat up your sport star wesley in the near distant future...

Yeah but I'm not talking about professional athletes who acted in movies, I'm talking about actors being professional athletes in movies.

No way, he's a great boxer but he couldn't hit the homerun/steal a base, dunk a basketball or take Ray Griffins position as "Starting Tailback"

i get your idea, lots of dumb fricks on here as usual. i've actually thought about that with Epps before.

Alvin Mack was pretty versatile as a football player. MLB in Program and stone hands speed burning WR in Neccesary Roughness.

Yes, he crossed my mind as well. He was also Joe Louis in "Rocky Marciano"(a made for TV movie) and James Buster Douglas in "Tyson"....also Jerry Johnson in "Little Big League" and Bo Kimble in "The Hank Gathers Story".

And Andrew Bryniarski was a pretty versatile football player(Steve Lattimer DE "The Program" and Wyatt Beaudry OL/DL in Necessary Roughness")
Also Patrick "Madman" Kelly OL in "Any Given Sunday"

Awww, you beat me to it, I was trying to find an image. All the pictures of him are from leatherface, i guess he has a cult following from the new texas chainsaw massacre.
