      Bingo

      I think TS was asking for a fighter that turned out to be a good fighter after he got a fluke shot at the title and those mentioned prior never became more than a short time titleist

            Well the character of Rocky Balboa according to Stallone was based on Marciano's fighting style.

              No.He wa based on Rocky Marciano's nice,outgoing and general good guy demeanor and personality.

              His fighting style was based from Wepner.

                I dont think he was picked out of nowhere on a fluke he had built a rep as being a pretty solid prospect/contender by the time he fought Patterson

                      Chuck Wepner works for this liquor company I deliver for. He's a salesman. I deliver to one of his stops in like Ortley Beach or some ****. And I saw his name on the invoice. I was like is this thee Chuck Wepner, or is it a coincidence. It's really him, haven't met him, but he's been working here for years aparently.
