About Mark Smith

Born 1969. Mark Smith is a British actor, bodybuilder and television actor.

Acting career Gladiators He starred as Rhino on the ITV show Gladiators, from 1995 to 1999. In 1996, he guest-starred in a single episode of American Gladiators (1996). After Gladiators ended in 1999, due to poor viewing figures, he became an actor and producer in Los Angeles.

On 4 June 2005, at London's infamous York Hall, Smith went head to head with lottery winner Michael Carroll in a boxing match. The fight drew much publicity with the press conference ending in a brawl after Carroll lunged for Smith. On the day, the fight had to be stopped three times due to Carroll's inability to continue. The former binman later stated "I will definitely get back in the ring with him. I will train harder next time." The charity re-match took place at the Manchester Evening News Arena in September 2005. This time Carroll was knocked out in the 2nd round. He starred in Argo in 2012, and was a regular in the series The Last Ship (2015). In 2018, he played Raggz in the film Yardie.

In 2021, he starred in the western film The Harder They Fall. On the night of the fight, Rhino was defeated by Brooks via 2nd round KO.
