Boxing champ Peter Quillin aka “Kid Chocolate” is making his silver screen debut next year as none other than the original Black Mamba himself Roger Mayweather.
According to TMZ Sports, Quillin says he auditioned, and landed the small role in an upcoming flick entitled “Bleed For This” a true-life story centered around the life of world champion boxer Vinny Pazienza, played by “Divergent” actor Miles Teller.
“Only Roger Mayweather can be Roger Mayweather,” Quillin says “What I tried to do is bring a fighter’s mentality to his character.”
The 31-year-old champ says the hardest part of the job was nailing down the fight choreography since he’s not used to scripting out his moves in the ring but says there’s one part of the gig that came naturally.
“I remembered all of my lines. I didn’t f**k up.”
