lol this is great! those who know can tell its staged a course, but its great fun and good promotion. ali though, haha he HAD ta throw in that racial shit at the begginin, with "he called me by ANOTHA name..." "he calld me a ......" haha im sure wepner aint gonna call the man who gave him his biggest fight of his whole boxing career a nigger, or coon, or whatever the word was that got bleepd out! lol typical Ali fashion though an very entertaining from both opponents! chuck wepners my main man!
Sylvester Stallone probably saw this episode of "Mike Douglas" in '75 because there is a scene very similar to it in his movie. For Stallone to say that Wepner wasn't the direct inspiration for Rocky is a joke. He owes his career in Hollywood to Wepner.
@marcellisrobinson Hahahahah. He owes his career more to Ali. Wepner lost bad. The only thing Wepner did was rabbit punch Ali and fight dirty. He didn't even knock him out. Rocky is more based on Joe Frazier; the philadelphia slugger, ranning up the steps in Philadelphia and pounding on meat as a training. That slugger takes it up against a loudmouth trashtalking, amazing, dancer boxer and really gives the champ a good fight. 'Funny it was also called fight of the century, stallone is a fake.
@michaelyouth Wepner lost bad? Though Ali won the bout handily, Wepner did manage to survive into the 15th round, so I wouldn't say that he lost badly. Losing badly would be more like getting knocked out in the first few rounds.
Another thing where your analogy to Frazier rings false : Wepner is white. Stallone is white. Frazier is black.
@marcellisrobinson He was beaten all night long. The only reason he got to go to 15 is because he kept rabbit punching. Look at his face after the fight. Ali wasn't even near his prime, he wasn't even near his post prime in 74 shape.. I'd even say this Ali against Wepner might just have been one of the weakest Ali's, and Wepner still is considered a greatness for ''lasting, or should I say,rabbit punching'' the champ for 15 rounds. Daahhh STallone is white.Rocky is still mostly based Frazier.
@Onetazien i know u can see the full fight on my channel lol. for the first 2 of this vid minutes ali is winning the battle of the words then after 2:15 it's all Wepner.
@Onetazien Truesay in terms of the context of the actual fight. I meant it's interesting esp considering that Ali had just kocked out Foreman. Also, kudos to Wepner, he actually gave it a good go unlike the other "white hope" Bugner later that year (which you can also find in my channel lol).
I mean I don't knwo what your opinion is based on but Ali was strong against racism, throught his life,e ven though he was initially part of a racist NAtion of Islam, he eventually left became Sunni Muslim and fought off racism.
Whepner got nothing from what I have seen , he was a fighter who fought with out integrity, Ali fights with skill and honestly, with out honesty there is no skill, I mean your opinion is your opinion, FActs are Whepner can't fight, he fights with out class!
There goes that class you mentioned, hey whats up with your projection on, Panzy marriages are in your culture lolz, you got mixed up there. NOw ALi gave that dude a whooping, and he turned him into a wussy just like you are being turned into one now.
Are you jelous a Muslim brother took out a classless joke and bum, that reminds you of yourself. You definetaly are which explains your irrational behavior as a loser, your trash talk and classless ness shows you why you dislike teh better man Ali both in skill and personality.
Whepner was the joke you support a joke which is why you are the joke.
Can you even imagine a scene like this happening with today's boxers? This is ALL Ali..he could add a comedic tone to any kind of situation. Just as great of an entertainer as he was a boxer..which is about the Greatest Of All Time. I think in his prime around 66' he could have beaten any boxer that ever lived. Why am I writing this? Nobody is even watching this video...where is everybody? Speak up.
Wepner is a filthy fighter

There is nothing to hear from a wussy who looks up to a wussy named Whepner and then talks trash and then also talks about class.
