Chuck Wepner getting any royalties? who would have thought taking a beating from Ali would create a movie franchise. that guy bled just thinking about a fight.
he actually sued stallone and won a few years back. he knocked ali down by stepping on his foot and hitting him with a body shot. Ali then tortured him for 11 rds before the ref finally stopped the fight in the 15th. it was not the equally sided fight that Rocky made it out to be. Ali slaughtered him.
Can David get royalties for beating Goliath? Scrappy underdog stories are hardly original. Why does Wepner feel entitled to anything? Did he really win a judgment or did Stallone give him a few bucks to just go away?
