Nah. Bloodsport is based on stories told by notorious martial arts fraud Frank Dux but it's total fiction; it didn't lead to anything in the real world. Except insofar as the movie might have been part of the inspiration behind the first Ultimate Fighting Championship which was organized 5 years later, and that's what led eventually to MMA.
Wish they'd specify that it's American football, just for clarity. No-one wants to get into that argument, but they're using a term that is wrong for the majority.
Since you checked the box, no I'm not going to remove it. The facts are not exactly clear.
For one, according to Wikipedia:
The lawyer representing the Tuohys released a statement regarding Oher's remarks as "hurtful and absurd", and alleged that Oher had threatened to "plant a negative story about them in the press unless they paid him $15 million"
The fact that everyone seemed to rush to judgment against the Tuohys is revealing. I think it's pretty clear that Oher would not have been in the NFL or had any money without the Tuohys. Other than that, I can't say much with certainty as both sides make different claims.
This feels to me like a great example of the "Copenhagen Intepretation of Ethics", otherwise known as you can be blamed for anything you interact with so never try to help anyone ever.
