Who is drederick tatum based on

A lot of the scenes involving Homer fighting hobos were pitched by John Swartzwelder. In preparation for this episode, Mark Kirkland watched several boxing films and is satisfied with how it turned out. The black and white montage of Homer's victories, accompanied by angelic classical music, is a nod to a similar scene in the boxing movie Raging Bull. Homer is at one point referred to as "The Southern Dandy" as a reference to the old-time boxers and wrestlers who had similar nicknames.

The basic premise is borrowed from the original Rocky : an amateur boxer is plucked from obscurity to face a brash, cocky heavyweight boxer.
