Character mistake: Reverend Sultan stated James Roper lost to Terry Conklin 10 years ago. Later at the press conference Roper stated he was 17 at the time. During promotional videos for the fight, the "tale of the tape" listed Roper as being 30 years old, not 27. (00:21:29 - 00:33:37)
The Great White Hype (1996)
1 mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Reginald Hudlin
Starring: Samuel L. Jackson, Jeff Goldblum, Peter Berg, Corbin Bernsen, Damon Wayans
Mitchell Kane: Are you happy with your deal with Sultan?
Johnny Winsor: Happy? I'd sooner be turked by a syphilitic bear.
Mitchell Kane: T-turked? Turked? What is turked?
Johnny Winsor: Rectally relieved.
Trivia: In the final fight scene, 'Sultan' is greeting people in the arena. He stops a man who looks like John Travolta and says 'Vincent, how's Jules?' (or something similar). Vincent Vega was Travolta's character, and Jules was Samuel L Jackson's character in Pulp Fiction.
