Trivia: Not a mistake, but a little extra. When we first see Doug the Head in the bar drinking and getting his lunch, the man on the right, reading the newspaper is director Guy Ritchie.

Trivia: Brad Pitt almost turned down the role of Mickey O'Neil in this movie as director Guy Ritchie informed him that he would be playing a boxer, and feared being typecast as he had already played the same role in Fight Club (1999). Pitt took up the role anyway, as he desperately wanted to work with Ritchie.
