Behind the legend: Chuck Wepner.⁠ ⁠ Known as 'The Bayonne Bleeder’ Wepner's brave performance against Muhammad Ali in 1975 for the World heavyweight title inspired Sylvester Stallone to create his iconic film "Rocky."⁠ ⁠ A heavy underdog, Wepner went 15 rounds with the champion, even knocking him down in the ninth round, an incredible feat from the bruiser from Bayonne, New Jersey - you could say straight out of a Rocky movie! A legal battle ensued with Wepner taking Stallone to court in 2003... Chuck Wepner, Rocky Movie, Sonny Liston, George Foreman, Sylvester Stallone, Muhammad Ali, Knock Knock, New Jersey, Rocky
