Must be awesome being rich as fuck when you get up in years. Seeing this or David Hasslehoff as a manchester city game with 3 10/10 european prostitutes
Wasnt he forced into recinstructive surgery because of boxing and his facial bones being broken?
Ye, he was a good and very tough boxer, but took a hell of a lot of punishment, even in his victories.
^^ That's combat sports for you (and age of course)
He looks a little like Bradley Cooper in that photo.
I think he'd look less freakish nowadays if he didn't have long greasy hair and no eyebrows. Maybe get himself into a lean routine, start running HGH and get that turkey neck taken in.
I know you should not be prejudiced but that's what you get for dating a Russian model. All these girls smile same fake a fuck to me. I am always afraid those girls would murder you in your sleep,with a smile on the face,for your cash.
I had a few friends who had russian girls as girlfriends and i have not yet met one who ended things on a highnote.
I am sure there a few pretty and sweet russian girls out there but most of the really pretty ones are cold as ice.
Is Mickey still boxing because his face looked swelled up as fuck a lot of the times.
I hate to generalize, and there's always anomalies, but there's a lot of truth in this post. When I lived in LA and I was doing commercials, I met a lot of models. The Latin girls, the Asian girls, the Persian girls...they were all really sweet. The Russian girls were a nightmare. I've never met ruder girls. And they'd sak you who you were dating and if he wasn't a millionaire they'd be like "oh, ju estupid gerl." I knew this one Russian girl who was a knockout and left her 30 year-old boyfriend for a seventy-year old producer. Yes, seventy.
Also, if you guy to clubs in Miami and meet a Russina girl at the beach here, she's probably an escort. And that's truth.
I've always had a thing for Eastern Euro girls. Particularly Czech Republic, Romania and Hungary. Dated a Ukrainian, Czech and now Polish. My current Polish gf is sweet, but I'm terrified of all the horror stories. That's why I've treated them all mean to keep them mean more than anyone to test what they've been after.
lol @ the surprise regarding what attracts women though ie money and power.
No surprise...The Russian girls are just an exaggerated caricature of the money hungry cold hearted vixen...They're all business...no heart...no smiles. Pure bitch w/ icy veins. At least latinas are fun to be around.

Not arguing anyone's personal observations but as someone who has been to Russia and Ukraine a few times, there's a difference between Russian women in Russia and those that move to America.
Somewhat like comparing Iroc-driving Ginos in America with young Italian men in Italy.
Too bad the I-Roc Z got lumped in w/ cheesy Guido culture. Car was always badass.
I got sick and tired of watching rappers on that show and waiting for them to do the "You wanna go to war?..." or "Say hello to my little friend" fucking lines
DanCrase - Rourke sustained the usual damage from boxing; broken nose, some cuts etc which made him look a bit shoddy, but when he went back to acting (he was 40 when he started pro boxing, so his career was severely limited) he got plastic surgery to try and repair the damage; ended up making it much, much worse.
As for proof being too much of a tool can destroy a burgeoning hollywood career; Megan Fox
You trying to tell me that getting knocked up by Brian Austin Green (star of TBS "Wedding Band" doesn't count as a good Hollywood career move?

He fucked up his face from vanity (and I love rourke). He got the same heavy bumps and bruises as any fighter but he said it himself he went crazy with the facial surgery.
It doesn't look to me there's enough info to decide whether the surgery was "necessary." I think the issue is whether, for whatever reason, he actually had a crushed cheek bone.
People are assuming that IF he did, it would have come from boxing; but that if his career was a sham, it's unlikely he would have sustained that injury.
It's possible for him to have gotten the injury sparring, or in a bar for that matter (mouthing off to the wrong person, say). It could have been a combination of things, or cumulative, etc.
It's also plausible that he got the surgery for reasons related to vanity but not "purely" for that reason; in other words, there wasn't any collapsed cheekbone as such, but minor, though permanent, structural damage, which he intended to fix with a quick cosmetic job. If that job went badly astray, then attempts to fix it easily could have resulted in what we see today.
It's also possible that the structural damage to his face was so slight, only an authentic narcissist would consider surgery. Or perhaps a merely vain, but not self-obsessed, person whose drug use warped his self-perception so as to essentially result in obsession.
Even if his career was worked, the injuries as he stated are still possible through a variety of combination of facts and Mickey's intentions/state of mind. Not enough info to call total bullshit, OR to absolutely declare the surgery was "necessary."
His story is plausible, and so are the alternative stories. I tend to think the injury was a cumulative result of training and professional bouts, but don't insist on it.
"I had my nose broken twice. I had five operations on my nose and one on a smashed cheekbone. I had to have cartilage taken from my ear to rebuild my nose and a couple of operations to scrape out the cartilage because the scar tissue wasn't healing properly. That was one of the most painful operations, but the worst was hemorrhoids," he told The Daily Mail in 2009, adding that "Most of [the surgery] was to mend the mess of my face because of the boxing, but I went to the wrong guy to put my face back together,' he says."

I read that he had to have multiple extensive surgeries to repair a lot of cartilage damage from taking a battering in boxing.
Admittedly, I have never seen his fights, but just going off what I read he was ok but took too much punishment?

His boxing injuries are pure and unadulterated bullshit, he never trained nor fought seriously. He was beaten and abused by a cruel step-father, made to feel weak and small, then he became obsessed with strength and power, which warped his thinking.
Couple that with lots of easy cash, drugs and sycophants, then you have a mental case who destroyed himself.
