This show is the property of ESPN Films, a very special thanks to them , Mr. Jeff Feuerzeig and Mike Tollin, for doing such a wonderful job. A special thanks to you for watching on ESPN and for watching here as well.




In 1975, Chuck Wepner fought Muhammad Ali for the world's Heavyweight title. During the 15th Round, Ali knocked Wepner out after breaking his nose and opening cuts over both eyes. Sylvester Stallone wrote a screenplay and won three Academy Awards for the film "Rocky," which is based on Wepner's gutsy challenge. Watch "The Real Rocky" on Tuesday, October 25 at 8pm EST on ESPN.

  • Rocky was a 2 time heavyweight champ, Chuck wasnt. Chuck never said "Yo Adrian, I did it" (Sly created that). Chuck never ran up the steps in Philly, (Sly created that). Chuck never said "Its not about how hard you hit, Its about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward" (Sly created that too) Muhhamad Ali wasnt killed by a Russian boxer huh? THINK ABOUT THAT!

  • @KayStarrTV Never married to an Adrian, and the stairs, EVERY day, would not be so sure about the line, but Sly is a VERY talented guy, no question. HIS words, "Thanks for the inspiration".

  • chuck the way ali treated u was sad u would never throw the n bomb ever and btw im not shure if the the andre the giant fight was rel the headbutt lokked fake but the throw out must of hurt

  • A great doc about Chuck's career. Strange how Chuck Wepner can't get into the boxing hall of fame but Sly Stallone can!

  • @timothyh71 Again, I prefer, was inspired by...

  • @lshocket You are welcome, thanks for watching.

  • @mino1017 I like the word inspired better.

  • @RushNLV Thanks! Just trying to live the dream.

  • 2 GLOVES WAY UP for "The Real Rocky!" Chuck, if you're reading this, I think it's a TRAVESTY you aren't in the Hall Of Fame, and I'm happy you got what I hope was a fair monetary judgement for "your" franchise. I have lots and LOTS of "Rocky" memorabilia, but my proudest pieces are items of yours, which I'm always on the lookout for. As soon as I post this I"m going to the ESPN store and buying the Blu-Ray. Thanks!

  • @KayStarrTV bullshit. Of course there is going to be filler and fluff in the movie. this was basically a carbon copy of Chuck's life. how about this? Stallone was never a professional boxer. Where's your argument now? give Chuck the due he deserves and STFU

  • I use to live in Bayonne, New Jersey and I met the Bayonne Bleeder several times and there's no doubt in my mind he IS Rocky period!
