In recent years it's been happening in the Ip Man movies, portraying Ip Man as having beaten a "world heavyweight boxing champion," and able to easily take out 10 black belt karate men at one time. I know the movies are for entertainment, but the idea that Ip Man faced a "world champion boxer" in a supposedly semi-biographical movie is especially ludicrous, even in a fictional sense. A "foreign boxer" would have been enough.
