      he knocked ali down with a big body shot. wepner fought a lot of good fighters. he didnt have much skill but he was a fighter for real.

        He stepped on his foot.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Wepner "Wepner managed to knock down Ali when he reached his ribs with a right hand in the ninth round and sent the champion to the canvas. Some would say the knock down was questionable, and that Ali slipped. Still, Wepner was thoroughly beaten up by Ali and was in trouble during the fight. Wepner lost in the 15th round by technical knockout"

            Ali is hitting him 1 2 1 2 trys a right cross but it's a mis wep is falling all over the place comes off the left side ropes then Ali lands with the right cross Wep goes down in the back side of the ring. he looks like he will make it up but is out of it the ref calls off the count at 8

              Eubank’s boxing after-life is something of a curiosity. In the ring, he was a spell-binder, there surely has never been a boxer quite like him, apart from, maybe Cassius Clay in his early pre Mohammed Ali days. His boxing style was bizarre. No defense, arms by his side, weaving from the waist up, verbally taunting his opponents. Sometimes he refused to take his stool between rounds. But when he hit someone, they stayed hit.

                I wouldn't put Collins in Wepner's class.

                  Wepner got WORKED by Ali. It was a flash knockdown when he knocked Ali down, and it was in his midsection. He was probably off balance if anything.

                    Same with Collins' knockdown of Eubank.
