PICTURES: Has This Former Bond Lost His Fighting Skills?

Former 'James Bond' star Pierce Brosnan gave fans in Spain a fright after he stepped out with a black eye over the weekend.

The Irish actor, who starred in 007 movie 'GoldenEye', was photographed sporting a heavily bruised left eye during a golfing session at the Camp De Mar resort in Majorca.

He appeared to have taken a bad beating, but a spokesperson insists the injury was fake.

Brosnan's representative tells TMZ.com, "All good. Nothing happened. The black eye is movie make-up. Pierce was shooting a fight scene on '(A) Long Way Down'."

Brosnan is currently in Spain to film the movie with co-stars Aaron Paul, Toni Collette, Rosamund Pike and Imogen Poots.
