I got my video out today. Also have the book around here somewhere.
Will get to it after a rewatch and a reread.
I'd rate him higher working on retired prime. Gossett was 55 when he took the role and had ballooned to over 240 pounds for his role in The Punisher.
He trained like hell to both loose weight and develop a believable boxing physique. Romano describes his traing regimen. He ate5 to 7 small meals a day to drop 40 pounds. He also did a four month 6 day a week training routine that included sparring sessions. I wish that some of our lard butt heavies like Jam-a-Meal McCline would find this kind of dedication, Gossett did it for a movie role.
I take he insights into the actor's training given in Romano into account when I rate these guys and Gossett gets a big plus for his work to prepare for the film
