1
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,119
<i>My name is Chuck Wepner.</i>

2
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:10,469
<i>You don't know me.</i>

3
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,759
<i>Well, you do know me,</i>
<i>but you don't know you know me.</i>

4
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,999
<i>Once upon a time, I was</i>
<i>the heavyweight champ of New Jersey.</i>

5
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,039
<i>They called me the Bayonne Bleeder.</i>

6
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,849
<i>I always hated that name,</i>
<i>but for some reason, it stuck.</i>

7
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,790
<i>Hoboken had Sinatra, Bayonne had me.</i>

8
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,478
Chuck fuckin' Wepner!

9
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,234
I swear, this might be
the proudest day in my entire life.

10
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,591
It's like Christmas and All Saints' Day
rolled into one.

11
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,876
John, you know who this guy is?

12
00:01:35,960 --> 00:01:37,360
Yeah, I know who Arty is.

13
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,000
Did you know Arty invented
the wet T-shirt contest?

14
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,952
- What?
- I shit you not.

15
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,912
No, Arty Stock, no wet nip. Period.

16
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,110
That was you?

17
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,395
Hey, I was just trying to sell some booze

18
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:47,960
without getting shut down,
if you know what I mean.

19
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:49,599
That's genius right there,
that's what that is.

20
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:51,353
Hey, no, Champ. You...

21
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,352
- What?
- You're a legend.

22
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:54,590
To legends.

23
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,192
<i>I made a name for myself</i>
<i>by doing a lot of crazy shit.</i>

24
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,317
<i>Not all of it's true, but this part is.</i>

25
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,280
<i>In this corner, the former</i>
<i>New Jersey heavyweight champion,</i>

26
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,910
<i>the man who went 15 rounds</i>
<i>with Muhammad Ali, okay?</i>

27
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,560
<i>The pride of Bayonne, Chuck Wepner!</i>

28
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:17,634
<i>And in this corner,</i>

29
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,554
<i>you know him from his</i>
<i>Hollywood movie,</i> Paint Your Wagon,

30
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:22,597
<i>his many</i> Tonight Show <i>appearances,</i>

31
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,469
<i>he's undefeated in 1,303 bouts.</i>

32
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,710
<i>It's Victor!</i>

33
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,756
- All right, nothing to the face, okay?
- Did you tell him that?

34
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:32,916
No face.

35
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,670
Let's go!

36
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,436
<i>For me, it was always about</i>
<i>putting on a show.</i>

37
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,433
<i>Even when I was a kid, growing up in Bayonne,</i>

38
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,120
<i>me and my brother Don</i>
<i>were a couple of real clowns.</i>

39
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,477
<i>I was not really a fighter,</i>
<i>but this was Bayonne.</i>

40
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,995
<i>One way or another,</i>
<i>you were gonna end up fighting.</i>

41
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:01,030
<i>In 1954, Malphy Esposito stole my basketball.</i>

42
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,991
<i>I didn't wanna do anything,</i>
<i>but he whacked me pretty good.</i>

43
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,033
<i>I may not be the greatest fighter</i>
<i>of all time, but what I learned that day...</i>

44
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,190
Chuck.

45
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,112
<i>...is that I had a gift. I was special.</i>

46
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,360
<i>When you stop any guy in the street</i>

47
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,911
<i>and you ask him</i>
<i>who Chuck Wepner was, he'll tell ya,</i>

48
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,832
<i>"That guy could take a punch."</i>

49
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,834
<i>For a guy who wasn't really a fighter,</i>
<i>I was doing pretty good.</i>

50
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,918
<i>By 1974, I was flying up</i>
<i>the heavyweight ranks</i>

51
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,674
<i>and primed for a shot at the title</i>
<i>against "Big George" Foreman.</i>

52
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,917
<i>The only guy who stood in my way</i>
<i>was Terry Hinke, the Stormin' Mormon.</i>

53
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,559
- Hey, Bleeder!
- What?

54
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,472
Let it go. Let it go. Let it go!

55
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,597
Shit. Bad?

56
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,160
Come on AI, let me see the cut.

57
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:11,876
Looks pretty bad.

58
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,474
All right, get the fuck out of this corner,

59
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,279
and don't bother me
while I'm working, all right?

60
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,357
<i>Whatever we had to do, we did.</i>

61
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,639
<i>Al and I had an agreement, always</i>
<i>move forward and never stop the fight.</i>

62
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,120
AI, let the doc see the cut.

63
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:24,913
Sure, have a look there.

64
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,792
- Yeah, he's good. He's good.
- Thanks, Doc.

65
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,031
<i>They called Al "The Butcher,"</i>
<i>but it wasn't just him.</i>

66
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,554
<i>I wouldn't stop, either.</i>

67
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,394
<i>Besides, it wasn't his fault I bled so much.</i>

68
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:36,960
I cannot close this fuckin' cut.

69
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,350
It's time to send
this fuckin' Mormon back to Utah.

70
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:40,669
- Are you with me?
- Yeah.

71
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:41,836
- All right, let's do it.
- Go.

72
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,071
You're on, Chuck. You're on. Hit him.

73
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,712
<i>And the winner by knockout,</i>

74
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,396
<i>in two minutes and 18 seconds</i>
<i>of the 11th round,</i>

75
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:02,077
<i>and still the North American and</i>
<i>New Jersey heavyweight champion,</i>

76
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:03,833
<i>Chuck Wepner!</i>

77
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:09,796
Hey, baby.

78
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,473
Daddy, were you boxing again?

79
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,552
Yeah, as a matter of fact, I was.

80
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:16,633
Is that why your face looks so funny?

81
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,279
No, sweetheart.

82
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:21,680
Daddy's face always looks funny.

83
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,759
The other guy was just trying to
spruce it up for me a bit.

84
00:05:24,840 --> 00:05:26,399
Come here, give me some sugar.

85
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,311
Come on, Kimby. It's 8:00.

86
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:30,880
You gotta eat your breakfast. Go. Go, go, go.

87
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,110
Bye, Daddy.

88
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,230
Come here, let me look at you.

89
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:44,150
I'm all right.

90
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:45,600
Come here, baby.

91
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:49,920
- Let me see.
- It's my ribs.

92
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,594
Chuck, you look terrible.

93
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,831
I'll be as handsome as ever a couple of days.

94
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:57,400
Here, gimme some of that.

95
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,119
Yeah.

96
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,153
And a little bit of that!

97
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,074
Chuck, no. Come on,
I have to get Kimberly to school.

98
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,992
Plus, I'm still mad at you.

99
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,037
- Will you stop with that, please?
- No!

100
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,760
It's one of Arty's girls. I swear to God,
I never put a hand on her.

101
00:06:11,840 --> 00:06:13,240
It's not your hands I'm worried about.

102
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,358
- I wrote you another poem.
- You can keep your poems.

103
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,075
It's a good one.
Put it on the fridge for you.

104
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:20,230
Yeah?

105
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,277
- Come on, let me put it in.
- No!

106
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,710
- Just the tip.
- Chuck! No!

107
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,269
- Yeah, come on!
- Chuck, come on! I have 15 minutes...

108
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:28,555
Fuck!

109
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,872
...to drop her off and get to work!
God. I'm late.

110
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:39,799
<i>"My One and Only.</i>

00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,594
How you doin'? Chuck Wepner.
Life treating you good?

118
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,034
<i>There was another fighter,</i>

121

00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,478
How you doin'? Chuck Wepner.

123
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,552
Let me ask you something, you like Dewar's?

124
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:18,790
<i>I figured, what the hell?</i>

125
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,396
<i>I may be ranked eighth in the world,</i>
<i>but I still need a freakin' job.</i>

126
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,672
<i>Before that,</i>
<i>I was a bouncer for a couple of years,</i>

00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,957
<i>I was never good at roughing guys up.</i>
<i>Too nice.</i>

129
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:33,952
<i>Felt sorry for them, you know?</i>

130
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,430
<i>Besides, who wants to hang out</i>
<i>with a leg breaker</i>

131
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,837
<i>when you could be rubbing elbows with</i>
<i>the heavyweight champ of New Jersey?</i>

132
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,271
Hey, Champ! Nice fight with Hinke last night.

133
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,631
- Thanks, Joe.
- You really creamed his Mormon ass.

134
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,916
Hey, hey. Bayonne makes,
the world takes, baby.

135
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,150
You got it, brother.

136
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,711
- Hello, hello, hello.
- Hey, here he is!

137
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,678
Congratulations!

138
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,672
Hey, congrats.

139
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,274
- How you doin'?
- Way to go, Champ.

140
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,398
- How are you, Pete?
- Good. How's the face?

141
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,075
How's my face? I don't know.
What do you think?

142
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,834
- You're gorgeous. You're beautiful.
- Improvement, right?

143
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,115
Beautiful.

144
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,397
- Where's Johnny?
- Where the fuck you think I am?

145
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,230
I'm bleeding the lizard,
and my prostate is fuckin' killing me.

146
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,118
So, don't try to hustle me today, Chuck, huh?

147
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,157
Johnny D, this is me. Who's hustling?

148
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:19,993
You know I already got a deal
with those other guys.

149
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:21,992
I got something I wanna show you.

150
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,914
Look at this. See that?

151
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,520
- That's my girl, Dot.
- Dot?

152
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,034
Yeah, well, I call her Dotty.

153
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,512
See, you turn her over
and she goes from Dotty to Naughty.

154
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,320
- Yeah. That's beautiful.
- You like that? Who wants one?

155
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,676
- I'll take one. All right.
- There you go.

156
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,355
- I got one for all of you.
- How you doin', Champ?

157
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,079
I'm good. How you doin'?

158
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,432
Johnny, how much Wolfschmidts you want?

159
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,398
All right, how bad
you gonna bang me up for two cases?

160
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,517
Well, Johnny, for you,

161
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,513
I'm gonna make you a very special deal.

162
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,398
- Wolfschmidts, right?
- Yeah. Two.

163
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,509
Black and blue,
and you still look good, Champ.

164
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,719
- Hey, Champ.
- How are you?

165
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,120
Hey, Chuck!

166
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,278
Yeah, no, of course. Yeah, but listen...

167
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,319
I mean, it takes two people to dance,
isn't that right?

168
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,232
No, no, no.
Hey, calm down a little bit, okay?

169
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:24,436
What's up?

170
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,160
Listen to me! Listen to me!
All right, listen to me, you fuckin' gonif!

171
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,676
No... I mean...

172
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:34,833
You got yourself a deal.

173
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,672
Yeah. You, too. I'll see ya.

174
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:43,754
How's the cut? Let me look at you.

175
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,432
- What's that for?
- I wanna see if you're gonna bleed.

176
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,512
Jesus, AI!
You nearly took my fuckin' head off!

177
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,035
It's a good thing I know
how to take care of your cuts.

178
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,077
Stormin' Mormon
almost turned you into a cyclops.

179
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:56,753
- Stop!
- You fuckin' hemophiliac.

180
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:57,990
Who was on the phone?

181
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,832
AI, come on, I know you got
something going on. Who was that?

182
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:07,714
That was Don King.

183
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,190
No shit.

184
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,589
Because of the beatin' you put on Hinke,

185
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,998
I'm looking at a guy
who's got a shot at the heavyweight title.

186
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:21,954
You fuckin' Polack.

187
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,631
After Foreman takes care
of Mahatma in Zaire...

188
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:26,949
It's Muhammad, AI. His name's Muhammad.

189
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,235
You should say it right, okay?

190
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,074
I don't give a fuck if it's Mukluk!
All right?

191
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,949
When Foreman knocks Ali on his ass,
you're in.

192
00:10:37,560 --> 00:10:38,596
And what if Ali wins?

193
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:40,637
Foreman is a fuckin' monster. It's a lock.

194
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,154
I got...

195
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:44,633
- Title shot, huh?
- That's right, kid.

196
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,320
Hey, this is your lucky day.

197
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,392
AI, lucky day, lucky man.

198
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:53,754
Come here.

199
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:55,234
I love you, AI.

200
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,320
Thank you.

201
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,835
- Come on, you're missing it.
- Okay, okay.

202
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,279
<i>Uppercut. Sucker punch.</i>

203
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,397
<i>That night, my favorite movie,</i>

204
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,995
<i>Anthony Quinn,</i> Requiem for a Heavyweight.

205
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,434
<i>Broke my heart, that movie.</i>

206
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,955
<i>You see that, you can't help</i>
<i>but see yourself.</i>

207
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,557
<i>Who have been your past employers?</i>

208
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:20,476
<i>Well, you see, all I been doin'</i>
<i>for the past 17 years is fighting.</i>

209
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,437
<i>You know, in the ring.</i>
<i>Man, in the prize ring.</i>

210
00:11:27,560 --> 00:11:28,880
<i>You mean a prizefighter?</i>

211
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,354
Here it comes, here it comes.

212
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,876
<i>Miss, I ain't got no special problem.</i>

213
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,031
<i>Now, to you I'm a big, ugly slob...</i>

214
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,873
"...and I look like a freak.

215
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:43,194
"But I was almost the heavyweight
champion of the world.

216
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,032
"Why don't you put that down
on that paper someplace?

217
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,316
"Mountain Rivera was no punk.

218
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,837
"Mountain Rivera was almost
the heavyweight champion of the world."

219
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,552
You know what my old man used to say to me?

220
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:58,869
What?

221
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,556
He said, "When you're with a lady,
you gotta treat her special."

222
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:03,710
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

223
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,871
- How special?
- Very special.

224
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,112
- Yeah?
- Especially a lady like you.

225
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:11,635
With freckles.

226
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,075
- You like my freckles?
- I like your freckles.

227
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,640
Especially this part in here.

228
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,317
What are they fighting in Africa for?

229
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,990
I don't know. Two black fighters? Publicity?

230
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,958
Trust me, Don King knows what he's doing.

231
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,912
Hey, Champ. What the hell? Come with me.

232
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,072
Jimmy! Appreciate it. You know Phyll, right?

233
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:46,680
- Hey, how you doing?
- Hey, how you doing, Champ?

234
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,672
- I hear you're next on the menu, huh?
- Yeah.

235
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,831
Is that right? You gonna fight Foreman, huh?

236
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,070
That's what they say.

237
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,594
Move it! You got the Champ here!

238
00:12:53,680 --> 00:12:55,319
Hey, how you doin'?

239
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:56,675
Yo, Bleeder!

240
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,352
- Chuck, just don't...
- It's all right.

241
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:01,510
Yo.

242
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:04,790
Hey.

243
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:07,839
What'd you call me?

244
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,320
The Bleeder, that's what everybody calls you.

245
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:10,800
The Bayonne Bleeder.

246
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,030
- How you doin'?
- I'm good. You?

247
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,112
- Good. Like the fights, huh?
- Hey.

248
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,395
Sure.

249
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,631
- What the fuck!
- Chuck!

250
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,873
Relax, Champ. Come back for you
when I'm done with Foreman.

251
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,160
Hey, Champ, who you like?

252
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,960
- What are you doing, Chuck?
- Nothing. Just messing with him.

253
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:31,469
What are you trying to do?

254
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:34,075
Just don't worry about it, baby. It's okay.

255
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,152
<i>Foreman comes stalking across the ring,</i>

256
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,153
<i>delivering some light hooks</i>
<i>to the body of Ali</i>

257
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,471
<i>that certainly are doing no problems,</i>

258
00:13:41,560 --> 00:13:43,791
<i>or causing any problems to Muhammad Ali.</i>

259
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:45,837
<i>Ali spins him around out of the corner now.</i>

260
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:46,990
<i>They're very even...</i>

261
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,150
- He looks good.
- Who?

262
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:49,310
<i>Ali, a sneaky right hand.</i>

263
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:50,470
Ali.

264
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,400
Don't worry, Foreman will get him.

265
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,391
<i>If you had asked me</i>
<i>or any other bum on the street,</i>

266
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,915
<i>"Was Ali gonna beat</i>
<i>'Big George' Foreman in Zaire?"</i>

267
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,593
<i>I'd have said, "Hell no."</i>

268
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,070
<i>But he did it.</i>

269
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,754
<i>What were they gonna do,</i>
<i>put me in the ring with Ali?</i>

270
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,593
Let's go home, baby. Come on.

271
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,911
I don't know,

272
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,357
I think I might hit the diner,
maybe get a cup of coffee or something.

273
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,432
All right. You want company?

274
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,109
No, I gotta walk.

275
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:34,873
You go home. I'll be all right.

276
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:38,475
You sure?

277
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,873
Yeah. I just, you know...
I gotta walk, that's all.

278
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:45,950
Fine.

279
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,279
<i>It was like watching my future</i>
<i>go down the toilet.</i>

280
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,034
<i>Phyll tried to help,</i>
<i>but I was after something else.</i>

281
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,633
<i>Something I shouldn't have.</i>

282
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,235
It was after the Foreman fight, yeah.

283
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,915
I took a beating, so I figured
I'd get myself something nice, you know.

284
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,435
That's real nice. That's shiny.

285
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,751
If I rub it, does something lucky happen?

286
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,958
- Phyll.
- Coffee, black. Thanks.

287
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,759
- Excuse me!
- No, don't apologize.

288
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,071
This is my...

289
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:23,640
His wife. Your wife.

290
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:24,949
Shit.

291
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,271
No, no, no. It's okay. It's okay.

292
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,431
Trust me. It's not your fault.

293
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,991
This is just what he does.
It happens all the time, okay?

294
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,912
He sees a bimbo like you, you know,

295
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,673
don't even have to be pretty, and you're not.

296
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,918
And the bimbo says,
"I got freckles on my ass."

297
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,795
And boom! Chuck here falls in love.

298
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,953
He just falls in love
with the freckles on your ass.

299
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:48,793
I don't have freckles on my ass.

300
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,111
- Phyll, please...
- Shut up. I'm talking here.

301
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,920
Of course you don't have freckles
on your ass. That's not the point.

302
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,198
You don't have anything at all to
recommend you, but that don't matter.

303
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,112
See, you're just the next person in line.

304
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:03,194
The next person who looks at him
like he's something special.

305
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,478
You look at him like that, you got him.

306
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,951
No, no, no, it's okay. Stay.
You need to hear this.

307
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,477
See, you think you're special
because of those freckles, right?

308
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:17,190
And maybe you even marry him.
And have a baby with him.

309
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:22,594
And go through fuckin' hell with him.
Year after year after year.

310
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,156
Because you think that'll make him stick.

311
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:32,440
That'll make him yours. Just yours.
Only yours forever.

312
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:36,755
But you're wrong.

313
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,070
You see?

314
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,480
You're just so fuckin' wrong.

315
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:58,234
I'm taking Kimberly to my mom's.
You do what you want.

316
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,071
- Phyll...
- Fuck you, Chuck.

317
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,838
<i>Hey, what is this, a typing class?</i>

318
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,879
<i>All right, I'll give you a weather report.</i>
<i>The temperatures are rising.</i>

319
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,110
<i>I need a dime, fatso.</i>

320
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,275
<i>Forget it, we're even. Crocker.</i>

321
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:37,915
Hello?

322
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,400
<i>It's me, Al.</i>

323
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:40,550
Hey, AI.

324
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,235
What are you doin'? You sittin' down?

325
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:44,800
<i>Yeah, I'm watching</i> Kojak.

326
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,076
- They're looking for a white guy.
<i>- What?</i>

327
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:50,560
What are you talking about?

328
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,235
<i>Don King wants to make this whole fight</i>
<i>a race thing.</i>

329
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,198
So, he wants Ali to fight a white guy,

330
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,749
and since you're the only one
in the fuckin' top 10...

331
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,480
You hear me, bubala? You hear me?

332
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,237
You're the fuckin' white guy!

333
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:09,030
<i>Sometimes you just can't believe</i>
<i>your own dumb luck.</i>

334
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:14,080
<i>Don King decided to get creative.</i>
<i>All they needed was a white guy.</i>

335
00:18:14,360 --> 00:18:17,671
<i>And by process of elimination, that was me.</i>

336
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,071
<i>Ali could've been purple for all I cared.</i>

337
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,556
<i>They wanted me, Chuck Wepner.</i>

338
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,836
<i>The bum from Bayonne was getting a shot</i>

339
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,230
<i>at the heavyweight champion of the world.</i>

340
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,032
- Hello?
<i>- Hey, Phyll, it's me. You hear the news?</i>

341
00:18:45,120 --> 00:18:46,634
Yeah, it was on the radio.

342
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,155
<i>- Pretty great, huh?</i>
- Yeah, it's great, Chuck.

343
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,277
But right now your daughter
is staying at Grandma's house

344
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,676
because Mommy caught Daddy
with his hands in some panties

345
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:55,433
that didn't belong to Mommy.

346
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,992
Yeah. No, I know. I'm sorry.

347
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,791
This is big for me, though, you know?
Big moment, huh?

348
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:06,917
Yeah, lucky day, lucky man, right?

349
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:12,195
<i>Yeah. I just wanna share it</i>
<i>with you guys. Be a family?</i>

350
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,712
Used to be a family here, Phyll.

351
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,231
Phyll? You there?

352
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:21,879
Yeah, I'm here.

353
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,275
<i>I'm gonna train full-time</i>
<i>up in the Catskills.</i>

354
00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:27,033
I never had that before.

355
00:19:27,120 --> 00:19:29,760
This is the real thing, you know?
This is different.

356
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,309
I mean, everything's gonna be
different now, baby.

357
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,434
Congratulations, Chuck.
I'm real happy for you, I am.

358
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,040
Phyll? Phyll?

359
00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:42,679
<i>Everything was different.</i>

360
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,831
<i>I was fighting Muhammad Ali.</i>

361
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,196
<i>The big press conference was in New York.</i>

362
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,115
<i>I figured I'd better be prepared if I was</i>
<i>gonna get a word in edgewise with Ali.</i>

363
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,552
He's one of the most formidable foes,
I think, that could come into the ring.

364
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,792
He has an 18-inch neck
and a solid-rock granite jaw.

365
00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,957
So, I think that Ali's in
for an interesting evening,

366
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,236
and he's not taking it lightly,
he's taking it serious.

367
00:20:05,360 --> 00:20:08,717
Muhammad is the master of the poem,
so I wrote a poem.

368
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:10,990
Goes like this.

369
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,919
"What's in a word?

370
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,832
"And who's to say what will be?

371
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,032
"But there are those who say that
he's the best to ever wear the crown

372
00:20:20,120 --> 00:20:23,875
"And that this fight's a tune-up
against someone of little renown

373
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,710
"I proved them wrong time and time again

374
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,871
"And won my fights in spite of them

375
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,398
"So, don't write me off or count me out..."

376
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,199
Hold on, Chuck. Hold on.

377
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,074
Did you have a feeling
that was gonna happen? 'Cause I didn't.

378
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:41,230
What you gotta say now, Champ?

379
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,472
Don King say
they gonna leave feminine napkins...

380
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:45,755
Okay.

381
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:47,194
...in Chuck's corner.

382
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:48,714
Because the way he bleed,

383
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,757
that's gonna be the only thing
that mop up the blood.

384
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,071
I will beat him,

385
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,392
but no punches gonna land here, here.
Only in here.

386
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:57,755
All right. All right. All right. Okay.

387
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,036
'Cause I don't want no excuses about cuts.

388
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,360
- Are you done? Yeah?
- For the moment.

389
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:15,918
<i>So I took what I could get</i>

390
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,280
<i>She looked at me with her big brown eyes</i>

391
00:21:21,360 --> 00:21:23,955
<i>And said, you ain't seen nothing yet</i>

392
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,110
<i>Bop, bop</i>

393
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,840
<i>Baby, you just ain't seen nothing yet</i>

394
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:29,070
<i>Bop, bop</i>

395
00:21:32,120 --> 00:21:34,919
<i>We trained at the Granit Hotel</i>
<i>in upstate New York.</i>

396
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,550
<i>This place was top shelf. I mean,</i>
<i>I never seen anything like it in my life.</i>

397
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,998
Come on, huh?

398
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:42,594
I think you got a pool in your room, bro.

399
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,115
I heard they got two pools.

400
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,277
<i>I had my own room, separate dining room.</i>

401
00:21:47,360 --> 00:21:50,159
<i>No menu. I just, you know,</i>
<i>ordered whatever I wanted.</i>

402
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:54,439
<i>This was professional.</i>
<i>Finally, I was training like a pro.</i>

403
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,035
<i>It was a big step up</i>
<i>for a club fighter from Bayonne.</i>

404
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:01,234
Hey, Chuck. Hey, Chuck.

405
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:03,469
How are you?

406
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,313
Yes, yes. That's what we're talking about.

407
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:07,709
Let's hear about this fight.

408
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,473
How's it going, guys? All right.

409
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,836
- One at a time. One at a time.
- How you doing? Good to see you.

410
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,320
Where's the guy from the <i>New Jersey Sun?</i>

411
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,551
- I'm here.
- Get him up front.

412
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,518
Some people are calling this fight
a joke, Chuck.

413
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:18,636
What do you think of that?

414
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,440
They're saying it's a fight between
an artist and a house painter.

415
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,035
Yeah? Well, that's nice
they call me an artist.

416
00:22:24,120 --> 00:22:26,476
<i>I'm in the best shape of my life,</i>
<i>so we'll see.</i>

417
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:27,875
What are you gonna tell the fans

418
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:29,997
who think that this fight isn't worth
the price of admission?

419
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,993
They said that? Don't worry,
they'll get their money's worth.

420
00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:35,874
<i>- How do you plan to fight him, Chuck?</i>
- I'm fighting Bayonne style.

421
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:38,956
What do you mean, you're gonna
bleed in his mouth until he drowns?

422
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,479
Look, why don't you guys get
some new shtick, all right?

423
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,199
The only cut Chuck needs to worry about

424
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:46,396
is what I'm taking out of his purse.

425
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,790
How do you define Bayonne style?

426
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:49,916
Dirty.

427
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,038
Rabbit punches to the back of the head,
kidney punches.

428
00:22:53,120 --> 00:22:54,873
Ali's gonna be pissing blood for a week.

429
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,599
What about the sweet science?

430
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,320
Sweet science ain't so sweet, you got
a pile driver in your nuts, you know?

431
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:01,793
All right, fellas, thank you very much.

432
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,678
That's gonna be it for today, all right?

433
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,956
Come on, we got a few more questions.

434
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,551
"Wepner giving free transfusions."

435
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,711
"Bayonne's one-man blood bank."

436
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,316
Jesus Christ, these fuckin' writers.
Fuckin' animals.

437
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,637
Champ, you got this, man.

438
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,436
<i>John Stahl was my best friend.</i>

439
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,830
<i>Knew each other since we were kids.</i>

440
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,957
<i>You need someone like that in life.</i>

441
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,157
<i>Someone who'll always answer the phone.</i>

442
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:41,356
Hello?

443
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,040
<i>Hey, John. I'm not calling too late, am I?</i>

444
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,119
Hey. No.

445
00:23:48,360 --> 00:23:49,635
I was just...

446
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,316
I was putting together
the orders for tomorrow.

447
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,358
Thanks for covering my route, pal.
I really appreciate it. I owe you one.

448
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,558
<i>Yeah, yeah. You got it. Everything okay?</i>

449
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,360
Yeah, yeah. I was just...

450
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,194
I just remembered that Vic over
at Sabatino's Lounge in Hoboken?

451
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,432
<i>- Yeah.</i>
- He gets extra cocktail napkins.

452
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,557
I don't know if he's wiping his ass
with them, or what.

453
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,360
<i>Yeah, yeah, I did it, Chuck. I did it.</i>

454
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,312
<i>Good to hear from you, Chuck.</i>

455
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,757
Yeah. Yeah.

456
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,115
You seen Phyll?

457
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,920
<i>Yeah, I saw her at the City Hall Park, but...</i>

458
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:32,629
How she doing?

459
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:35,640
I don't know.

460
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,070
I'd really like her to come.

461
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:41,469
You know, to the fight?

462
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:42,710
<i>You want me to call her?</i>

463
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,639
Swing by or something?

464
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,393
Nah, that's okay. I was gonna...

465
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,920
- Would you mind?
<i>- No. I mean, I'll talk to her.</i>

466
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:56,480
There she is!

467
00:24:58,240 --> 00:24:59,674
Pretty lady.

468
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,353
Hey, John. What are you doing here?

469
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:06,071
Well, I was hoping you could give me
some discount on some stamps.

470
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,152
For postcards.

471
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,550
I figured I'd be sending some from Cleveland.

472
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,715
- I'm busy here, John. You can see...
- Hurry up, pal!

473
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,314
Settle down, dickhead.

474
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:19,510
What do you say?

475
00:25:21,360 --> 00:25:22,794
What do you want me to say?

476
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,669
Sure? Why not? No big deal?
It is a big deal, John.

477
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,915
Do you have any idea
what it's been like for me?

478
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,400
For my kid?

479
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,309
Even thought about what you're asking?

480
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,591
- He needs you, Phyllis.
- No.

481
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,477
<i>- Can you beat Muhammad?</i>
<i>- What?</i>

482
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,195
<i>- Can you beat Muhammad?</i>
<i>- Yeah, absolutely, Mike.</i>

483
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:49,115
<i>I've been waiting 11 years for this,</i>
<i>you know, so, I'm hungry.</i>

484
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,269
<i>You hear that? The man just said he's hungry.</i>

485
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,314
<i>He better go get himself something to eat.</i>

486
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,955
<i>How about two all-beef patties</i>
<i>with special sauce?</i>

487
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,320
<i>I never been scared of nobody my entire life,</i>

488
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:10,031
<i>but looking at my face for the first time</i>
<i>on that box, it was tough.</i>

489
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,000
How you doing, boychik?

490
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:32,992
- What's that?
- It's for you.

491
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,390
I guess somebody sent you some coconuts.

492
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:40,509
Gorilla balls.
My brother. It's a inside joke.

493
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,114
- Your brother?
- Yeah.

494
00:26:43,360 --> 00:26:46,080
- I didn't even know you had a brother.
- No, we don't talk that much.

495
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,275
- So, why'd he send those?
- I don't know.

496
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:56,511
Hey, bubby. What's going on?

497
00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:59,360
I gotta go the full ride, AI.

498
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,716
I can't look people in the eye
if I don't make it 15 rounds.

499
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,553
Forty to one, you know that?

500
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,269
That's the odds they're giving me, 40 to 1.

501
00:27:09,360 --> 00:27:11,431
Stop being such a fuckin' pussy, you hear me?

502
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:14,394
Trust me, all right?

503
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,794
Ali is gonna look like
the schvartze putz of the century

504
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,872
when you knock him out.

505
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:22,714
You hear me?

506
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:28,799
Special delivery.

507
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,360
John, what the fuck are you doing here?

508
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:31,920
You're supposed to be on my liquor route.

509
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,914
Relax. No one's left in Bayonne to drink.
Everyone's in Cleveland.

510
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,878
- Hello, AI.
- Hey, Phyll.

511
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,711
- Friend or foe?
- Friend.

512
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:43,230
That's good.

513
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,320
You do know
he's got a fight tomorrow night, right?

514
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,834
- Yeah, I know.
- Okay.

515
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:53,635
Thanks.

516
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,992
You see the Mike Douglas thing?

517
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:08,276
No.

518
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:33,950
Let me look at you.

519
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,678
<i>The new, not-so-well-known</i>
<i>Cleveland Coliseum,</i>

520
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,229
<i>where Muhammad Ali will be fighting tonight.</i>

521
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:57,713
<i>On this, the day of his title defense,</i>

522
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,560
<i>Muhammad Ali spent his time resting, eating,</i>

523
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,632
<i>and visiting the site</i>
<i>of his planned shopping mall</i>

524
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,200
<i>on Cleveland's East Side.</i>

525
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:27,516
Come on.

526
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,034
You like?

527
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,079
Yeah, I like.
I like it better when you take it off.

528
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:36,560
Yeah, I bet.

529
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,591
- What are you doing? Stop it.
- Come here. I wanna look at you.

530
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,237
- You know how gorgeous you are?
- Thank you.

531
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:52,839
All right, get out. I gotta get changed.

532
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,196
I don't wanna go back out there.
The lady is giving me the stink eye.

533
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:56,350
Okay.

534
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,874
Ali's saying he's gonna knock me out
in three rounds like I'm nothing.

535
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,710
Like I didn't belong there
in the first place.

536
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,033
I gotta show them, Phyll, you know?

537
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:17,952
I gotta show them I belong there.

538
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,078
Show who, Chuck? Who you gotta show?

539
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,756
You know, you know... Them.

540
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,513
Okay, "them."

541
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,596
Hey. Come here.

542
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,114
Come on, stop.

543
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:38,790
What?

544
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:41,236
I don't know, I just...

545
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,152
I don't wanna see you get hurt, Chuck.

546
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,034
I don't like seeing it.

547
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:50,559
I don't care about getting hurt.

548
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,680
I just gotta show them I belong, you know?

549
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:56,712
Go the distance.

550
00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:58,956
Yeah.

551
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:04,114
<i>Why are you here, spending</i>
<i>the kind of money that you did on tickets</i>

552
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,192
<i>to see Ali and Wepner?</i>

553
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,194
<i>Ali's a good fighter. He's the best.</i>

554
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,392
<i>Well, a lot of people think that</i>
<i>it's gonna be a quick fight.</i>

555
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,073
<i>I think it's gonna be a good one.</i>

556
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:22,076
<i>So, I got mixed emotions, but I'd</i>
<i>like to see Muhammad Ali win in five.</i>

557
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:27,030
<i>Well, I enjoy Muhammad Ali,</i>
<i>and, you know, that's the whole kit.</i>

558
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,396
<i>And I call him one of</i>
<i>the greatest performers there are.</i>

559
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:02,230
<i>Let's face it, nobody gave me</i>
<i>a chance in hell. But I didn't care.</i>

560
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,676
<i>For me to turn around and see Muhammad Ali</i>

561
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:08,800
<i>standing right there in front of me,</i>
<i>15 million people watching,</i>

562
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:10,599
<i>that was the best.</i>

563
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,992
<i>I'll never forget that feeling.</i>

564
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,074
<i>Bell rings, I rush forward</i>
<i>trying to be aggressive.</i>

565
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,800
<i>Ali's dancing around me talking.</i>
<i>Never stops talking.</i>

566
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,156
<i>He's saying, "Come on, whitey,</i>
<i>let's see what you got."</i>

567
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,516
<i>Couple of other choice words</i>
<i>I'd rather not mention.</i>

568
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:27,236
<i>Let's not forget one thing,</i>

569
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,552
<i>Ali does not dance like that for</i>
<i>seven or eight, nine rounds anymore.</i>

570
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:31,790
<i>He puts on these displays.</i>

571
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,111
<i>Wepner will look slow and awkward,</i>
<i>because he is slow and awkward,</i>

572
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,795
<i>but he does deliver a pretty good blow.</i>

573
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,759
<i>Finally, I get him on the ropes.</i>
<i>He's doing his rope-a-dope thing.</i>

574
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,274
Bayonne, Chuck! Bayonne!

575
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:42,714
<i>He doesn't give me much.</i>

576
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,120
<i>You know, I take what I can get.</i>

577
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:48,035
<i>Couple of kidney shots,</i>
<i>behind the head... You know, dirty.</i>

578
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,437
<i>To the best of my knowledge,</i>
<i>that was Muhammad Ali</i>

579
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,352
<i>that was unloading the illegal shots.</i>

580
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:56,760
Shots to the head.

581
00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:00,038
<i>...if they do penalize him for it or not</i>
<i>is a big question.</i>

582
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,352
<i>But certainly, Muhammad Ali</i>
<i>was no more the winner of that round</i>

583
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:04,954
<i>than Chuck Wepner.</i>

584
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,475
<i>Ali clearly has a much more fluid motion,</i>

585
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:14,960
<i>much more ability.</i>

586
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:16,997
<i>It's clear that he's getting through</i>
<i>with the jab...</i>

587
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:18,594
Bring your guard up.

588
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:20,675
<i>There's a quick combination.</i>

589
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,991
<i>Another three, four punches</i>
<i>to the face of Wepner.</i>

590
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,515
<i>But Wepner not visibly shaken,</i>
<i>as he continues to come in.</i>

591
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:27,034
<i>This man does not back up.</i>

592
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,396
<i>What good was backing up gonna do?</i>

593
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:30,880
<i>Look, my thing was this.</i>

594
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,520
<i>I couldn't hit him, so I figured</i>
<i>I'd wear him down with my face.</i>

595
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:37,071
<i>It was working great for five</i>
<i>or six rounds until finally, boom.</i>

596
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,079
<i>Now it looks like Wepner</i>
<i>may possibly have a cut above the eye.</i>

597
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:43,996
<i>I think I see some red stuff</i>
<i>that might possibly be hair.</i>

598
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,072
<i>No, Wepner is cut above the eye.</i>

599
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:47,560
<i>Looks like a pretty good gash, too.</i>

600
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:48,676
Come on!

601
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:50,035
<i>Wepner holds his arm up and says,</i>

602
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:51,839
<i>"Come on, Champ,</i>
<i>is that the best you can do?"</i>

603
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:53,639
<i>Wepner's a tough kid.</i>
<i>There's no doubt about it.</i>

604
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,116
<i>I have tremendous respect</i>
<i>for the courage of this man.</i>

605
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,635
<i>Ali has no respect for his ability.</i>

606
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,556
<i>All I know is they all said</i>
<i>I was gonna be done in three rounds,</i>

607
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:05,233
<i>and now they're chanting my name.</i>

608
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:09,200
<i>Sure, he was beating the crap out</i>
<i>of me, but they loved it. They loved me.</i>

609
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,430
Hey, John!

610
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,434
You hear that crowd, Chuck?
They love you, Chuck! They love you!

611
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,039
- Hey!
- What?

612
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,550
Look at me, you dumb fuck. Focus!

613
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,391
<i>Wepner not concerned with the left jab</i>
<i>at all, he just takes the punch.</i>

614
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,474
<i>Ali fakes the top part of his body back</i>
<i>and slips a punch to his left and...</i>

615
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:36,074
<i>Vicious shot to the ribs</i>
<i>of Muhammad Ali, and what a surprise!</i>

616
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,312
<i>Chuck Wepner gets to the body</i>
<i>of Muhammad Ali!</i>

617
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:41,953
Chuck! Holy shit!

618
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,875
<i>I was as shocked as anyone else.</i>
<i>I mean, my head was spinning.</i>

619
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,560
<i>I knew I hit him hard,</i>
<i>but to see him on his ass like that...</i>

620
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,916
<i>I saw myself as</i>
<i>the heavyweight champion of the world.</i>

621
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,596
<i>Didn't last, though. He got back up.</i>
<i>Boy, was he pissed.</i>

622
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:01,435
<i>Ali is now going to have to</i>
<i>get off his haunches and start the fight!</i>

623
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,194
<i>This is no joke! Ali was surprised!</i>

624
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,836
<i>Ali sat right down on his seat.</i>

625
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,116
<i>Now watch Ali go to work.</i>

626
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,671
<i>Ali is aggravated.</i>
<i>It looks like Wepner's in trouble now.</i>

627
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,957
<i>By the 12th round, he'd already closed</i>
<i>both my eyes, broke my nose,</i>

628
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,839
<i>and he was still dancing circles around me.</i>

629
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:31,752
<i>I didn't care.</i>

630
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,877
<i>I was just happy to be in the ring with him.</i>

631
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,950
<i>I don't remember much after that,</i>
<i>except trying to stay on my feet.</i>

632
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:43,799
<i>I could feel him hitting me.</i>
<i>No pain, just the thud of his fists.</i>

633
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:44,870
<i>Bone on bone.</i>

634
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:46,470
<i>Boom.</i>

635
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:48,470
<i>Boom.</i>

636
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,034
<i>Stay up, Chuck. Stay up.</i>

637
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,314
<i>Round 15, the heavyweight</i>
<i>championship of the world!</i>

638
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,596
<i>People are on their feet at the Coliseum.</i>

639
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:01,000
<i>They are seeing a better fight</i>

640
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,549
<i>than they thought that they were</i>
<i>going to see for their money.</i>

641
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,115
<i>Mohammed Ali wants to knock this man out.</i>

642
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,317
<i>Wepner does not want to go down.</i>

643
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,040
<i>There's a good combination,</i>
<i>Wepner's ready to go.</i>

644
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:15,637
<i>Ali comes on. Wepner is staggering,</i>
<i>he's out on his feet right now.</i>

645
00:36:15,720 --> 00:36:18,030
<i>Ali has his man in trouble!</i>

646
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,589
<i>Wepner attempting to hang on viciously.</i>

647
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,275
<i>He's trying to hang on. He's out on his feet!</i>

648
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:24,919
<i>Ali clocks him!</i>

649
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:30,280
<i>A right hand and a left hook</i>
<i>drops Chuck Wepner!</i>

650
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:33,150
Get up! Get up!

651
00:36:33,240 --> 00:36:37,075
<i>Five. Six. Seven. Eight.</i>

652
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:38,640
<i>The referee stops the fight!</i>

653
00:36:38,720 --> 00:36:41,713
<i>It'll be scored as a technical knockout!</i>

654
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:46,113
<i>Muhammad Ali retains the heavyweight</i>
<i>championship of the world!</i>

655
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,158
<i>Nineteen seconds.</i>

656
00:38:14,240 --> 00:38:16,755
<i>They stopped the fight with 19 seconds to go.</i>

657
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:18,234
<i>I didn't make it.</i>

658
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:23,440
<i>Funny thing is, nobody cared.</i>
<i>They threw me a party anyway.</i>

659
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,230
AI says to me,
"Forget the bank, we need a fire hose

660
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,118
"'cause Ali's getting up
and his ass is burnin'!"

661
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:38,276
<i>And what a reception for you in Bayonne.</i>

662
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,079
<i>Yeah, that was some party, huh?</i>

663
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,316
<i>You think there'll be a rematch, Chuck?</i>
<i>You and Ali, one more time?</i>

664
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,517
<i>Could be. Why not?</i>

665
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:48,910
<i>You know, unless he's too scared of me now.</i>

666
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,240
<i>In the meantime, Bob,</i>
<i>I'm just gonna enjoy myself.</i>

667
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:53,640
Chuck, you look good.

668
00:38:53,720 --> 00:38:55,200
<i>And what do you do for enjoyment, Chuck?</i>

669
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:56,999
<i>Wine, women, and song, Bob.</i>

670
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,959
<i>Wine, women, and song.</i>
<i>Not necessarily in that order.</i>

671
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:01,235
<i>Okay.</i>

672
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:02,720
<i>Guess what I like first.</i>

673
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,359
<i>I'll leave that for the folks at home.</i>

674
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,352
<i>Getting back to the fight.</i>

675
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,672
<i>This photograph</i>
<i>is of the knockdown in round nine.</i>

676
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:10,750
Come on.

677
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:14,231
<i>Now, Ali says that's your foot</i>
<i>stepping on his foot.</i>

678
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,518
<i>And he said it threw him off-balance,</i>
<i>and that's why he went down.</i>

679
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:18,829
Bullshit. Not even close.

680
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,031
I step on your foot, you goin' down,
you protest, wouldn't you?

681
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,635
Of course, that'd be the first thing
you do. You stand up and you say...

682
00:39:23,720 --> 00:39:26,030
Referee calls it a knockdown
and it's in the books. It's a knockdown.

683
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:27,076
That's why there's a referee there.

684
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:28,719
- Daddy.
- Yeah, honey.

685
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,359
This guy's just trying to
make something, you know?

686
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:31,590
Daddy.

687
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:34,637
<i>- Ali knows what happened.</i>
- Oh, my God.

688
00:39:34,720 --> 00:39:36,393
- Is that supposed to be me?
- Yeah.

689
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:37,994
Look at this.

690
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:39,309
Who is that, Bigfoot?

691
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:40,800
No, it's Daddy.

692
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:42,473
That's my girl.

693
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:50,353
I'll be right back.

694
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,396
- What are you doing?
- Just leave me alone.

695
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,392
Don't you wanna watch the show? It's still...

696
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,199
- You kidding me, Chuck?
- What?

697
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,910
What, "Wine, women, and song"? On television?

698
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:08,199
You know, it's bad enough
what you do on the streets, but on TV!

699
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:12,035
I said "woman," not women.
I said one woman. You.

700
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:13,873
- Bullshit.
- Come on, Phyll.

701
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:15,839
I'm just mouthing off.
You know what it's like.

702
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,760
No, I don't know what it's like, Chuck.
And I don't care.

703
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,400
It was a big night for me, all right?

704
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,876
We're just having fun.
They were all, you know...

705
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:31,160
They were eating it up, you know?
I was doing the Bayonne thing.

706
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:32,430
They loved it.

707
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:36,549
Yeah. Everybody loves you.

708
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,115
<i>I didn't hear a freakin' word she said.</i>

709
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,590
<i>Truth is, I was so high on cloud nine,</i>

710
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,275
<i>I couldn't hear anything</i>
<i>but the sound of my own voice.</i>

711
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,272
And I buy her this beautiful
powder blue negligee.

712
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:54,110
And I says, "Honey, I want you to
wear this tonight, because tonight,

713
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,159
"you're gonna be sleeping with
the heavyweight champion of the world."

714
00:40:57,240 --> 00:40:59,880
So, after the fight,
I come back to the hotel, I let myself in,

715
00:40:59,960 --> 00:41:03,032
she says to me, "So, do I go to
Ali's room, or does he come to mine?"

716
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,479
How you doin' for Smirnoff?

717
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,279
Good, Champ. I'll take whatever you got.

718
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:13,635
People doing a lot of celebrating this week.

719
00:41:13,720 --> 00:41:14,836
That's what I like to hear.

720
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,560
Hey, Red, do me a favor.
Give me a round for everybody on me.

721
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:19,632
Wait your turn. I got customers.

722
00:41:19,720 --> 00:41:22,155
- Wait my turn?
- Easy, Chuck. Chuck, easy, easy, easy.

723
00:41:22,240 --> 00:41:24,357
That's Linda. You don't wanna mess with her.

724
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,318
Linda! Linda, come here.

725
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:27,800
Don't you know who this is?

726
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:29,479
Yeah, the Bayonne Bleeder.

727
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:30,676
How you doin'?

728
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,315
Ali says you stepped on his foot,
that's why he went down.

729
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:35,995
Yeah? He said that? Well, that's bullshit.

730
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,118
That's what he said.
Dirty fighter. Called you a punk.

731
00:41:41,240 --> 00:41:43,960
Punk, huh? I ain't no punk.

732
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:47,078
I was almost the heavyweight champion
of the world.

733
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,516
Well, you're no Mountain Rivera.

734
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,353
Wait a minute, you saw that movie?

735
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,318
<i>Requiem for a Heavyweight?</i> Sure.

736
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:54,516
Fuck me.

737
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,319
Not in this lifetime.

738
00:41:56,720 --> 00:41:59,918
But now it's your turn.
So, what are you having?

739
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,559
I'll have a vodka rocks, and
whatever these jim-jims are drinking.

740
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:06,710
Sure.

741
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,519
- Thanks, Champ.
- What'd you say her name was?

742
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:09,795
Linda. Linda.

743
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:17,999
Here you go. Sorry for the wait.

744
00:42:20,720 --> 00:42:22,712
Hey, Chuck. Show her that ring.

745
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,439
- What?
- Show her that ring.

746
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:29,557
I designed it. It's a metaphor.

747
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,360
The black onyx represents Ali.
I'm the diamond.

748
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,877
Yeah? If I was you, I'd find
the gumball machine you got it from

749
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,110
and get my quarter back.

750
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:40,880
Let me ask you something. What sign are you?

751
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,236
- You're kidding, right?
- Dead serious.

752
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:44,549
Pisces.

753
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,394
- No shit! That's my sign!
- Like that's not a line.

754
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:49,278
- I'm not lying to you.
- What's your birthday, big shot?

755
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,955
February 26th. What?

756
00:42:52,720 --> 00:42:54,598
- That's my birthday.
- Shut up.

757
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,911
- No, that's my birthday!
- Come on.

758
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:58,150
Here, look at this.

759
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,080
Linda Pandilano.

760
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:08,231
Anybody ever tell you
you take a beautiful picture?

761
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:09,800
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

762
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,556
No, I'm serious.
Hey, I'm so in love right now, it hurts.

763
00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,154
What are you doing later on?
Let's get married.

764
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:17,511
Sure. Let me call your wife.

765
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,840
Look, Chuck, you don't know nothing about me.

766
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,594
And I don't know nothing about you.
So, what are you doing?

767
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:50,190
Put this one over here.

768
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:56,714
That's pretty.
Chuck. Will you get it? I'm busy.

769
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,309
Yeah. This one's so cute.

770
00:44:02,240 --> 00:44:04,709
Hello? Yeah, this is him.

771
00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:06,830
What?

772
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,472
<i>About a year and a half after the fight,</i>
<i>I get a phone call.</i>

773
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:12,677
<i>Guy says he's a producer in Hollywood.</i>

774
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:17,118
<i>Says some guy named Stallone wrote a</i>
<i>screenplay inspired by me. I was like...</i>

775
00:44:17,240 --> 00:44:18,356
What?

776
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,792
<i>That don't matter either, you know?</i>

777
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,509
<i>So, I was thinkin'...</i>

778
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,195
<i>It really don't matter if I lose this fight.</i>

779
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:51,114
<i>It really don't matter</i>
<i>if this guy opens my head, either.</i>

780
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,591
<i>'Cause all I wanna do is go the distance.</i>

781
00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,909
- Chuck?
- I know.

782
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,038
<i>Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed.</i>

783
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:04,918
<i>And if I can go that distance,</i>

784
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:09,793
<i>just hearing that bell ring,</i>
<i>you know, I'm still standing...</i>

785
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,398
Chuck Wepner. You're Chuck Wepner, right?

786
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:21,755
- Hey, how you doin'?
- It's nice to meet you.

787
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,435
- Nice to meet you.
- It's Chuck Wepner, guys.

788
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:25,840
The real Rocky!

789
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:28,720
<i>You hear that?</i>

790
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,315
<i>Chuck Wepner, the real Rocky.</i>

791
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:34,559
<i>I told you you know me.</i>

792
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:38,236
Thank you very much.
Bye, everybody. Come on. Let's go.

793
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:43,076
<i>I felt like a movie star.</i>
<i>This guy, he really got me.</i>

794
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,959
<i>The job as a debt collector,</i>
<i>running the steps,</i>

795
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,760
<i>even the conversation I had</i>
<i>with my wife, for Christ sakes.</i>

796
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,878
<i>That was me. I was Rocky.</i>

797
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,512
<i>Ladies and gents,</i>
<i>look who just walked in here!</i>

798
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,637
<i>It's the king himself!</i>

799
00:46:18,720 --> 00:46:21,599
<i>It's the guy who went 15 rounds</i>
<i>with Muhammad Ali!</i>

800
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,400
<i>The real life Rocky Balboa!</i>

801
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:27,951
<i>Come on, and the toughest</i>
<i>son of a bitch in the Garden State!</i>

802
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:31,078
<i>Give it up for Chuck Wepner!</i>

803
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:36,476
Thank you!

804
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:39,280
Hey, there he is! Yeah!

805
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,551
All right! All right!

806
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,319
<i>How about that band?</i>

807
00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:58,914
<i>Hit movie, hit song.</i>

808
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,320
<i>What can I say?</i>

809
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:02,039
<i>I'm a lucky guy.</i>

810
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:27,590
Having fun tonight?

811
00:47:29,240 --> 00:47:31,232
Go get a drink. How you doing?

812
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,112
This will be right here.

813
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:37,997
Hey, John, look at that.

814
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:40,350
Yo, Champ!

815
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,956
I gotta tell you,
that movie was fuckin' unbelievable.

816
00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:45,076
Thanks, pal. Appreciate it.

817
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:47,356
- How many nominations you get?
- Ten.

818
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:49,636
Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Director...

819
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,798
Holy shit! You must've made
a fuckin' fortune! Am I right?

820
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:54,997
- I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.
- Yeah.

821
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:56,992
When Sly told me about <i>Rocky,</i>

822
00:47:57,080 --> 00:48:00,232
he offered me 70 G's or 1% of the box office.

823
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:01,356
I took the 70 G's.

824
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,312
What do I know about movies?
I'm from Bayonne, you know?

825
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:04,874
Hey, a bird in the hand, am I right?

826
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:08,397
Hey, bird in the hand is good as
a hand in the bush<i>. Capisce?</i>

827
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:09,994
Double <i>capisce!</i>

828
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,558
Hey, doll, set my man up
with whatever he wants! On me!

829
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:16,313
- Right on. Thanks, Champ.
- All right.

830
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:17,390
All right, pal.

831
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:19,517
You got 70 grand for that?

832
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:21,190
Shut up, John.

833
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,237
You hear that? 70 G's.

834
00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:24,276
What?

835
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,113
Chuck got 70 big ones for <i>Rocky!</i>

836
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,078
John, John, would you
shut the fuck up, please?

837
00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:29,560
Seriously. You know what I mean?

838
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:31,438
You're not my fuckin' agent, John.

839
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:32,840
That's my business, you know that?

840
00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:34,513
I don't want my business on the street.

841
00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:36,120
You know, I apologize.

842
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,715
- I... I didn't mean...
- All right, all right, all right. Stop.

843
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,156
- I didn't mean it...
- Forget it. Forget it.

844
00:48:41,240 --> 00:48:43,072
Sweetheart, can I get
a vodka on the rocks, please?

845
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:46,674
I'm sorry.

846
00:48:47,720 --> 00:48:50,076
Truth is, I didn't make a fuckin' dime
on that movie.

847
00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:51,116
Really?

848
00:48:51,240 --> 00:48:52,674
Not a dime.

849
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:54,831
That's fucked up, Chuck. I'm sorry.

850
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:56,394
- I know, but the guy asked me...
- Yeah.

851
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,756
...you know, in front of the girls,
I didn't wanna look like a chump,

852
00:48:58,840 --> 00:48:59,956
so I had to say something.

853
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:01,912
- You know, this stops with me. All right?
- Thank you.

854
00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:03,599
Loose lips sink ships.

855
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:05,239
- You know me, I'm not a talker.
- Yeah, yeah.

856
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:06,754
- I'm not gonna bring it up.
- Okay.

857
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:08,758
- 70 grand, out of my mind.
- Thank you.

858
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:10,758
- All right? I'm not bringing it up.
- Will you stop!

859
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,230
Hey, Chuck! I got a friend in the bathroom

860
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,789
that wants to make your acquaintance.

861
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,117
You want me to meet somebody in the toilet?

862
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,117
No, nobody wants to meet you in the toilet!

863
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,510
I want you to do a bump with me.

864
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:24,590
A what?

865
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:26,478
A bump! Come on, come on, come on.
Let's go, let's go.

866
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:32,758
What is... This is great, you know?

867
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:34,035
This stuff's fuckin' great.

868
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:35,759
Yeah. You've never done this shit before?

869
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:37,240
John, you try this shit?

870
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,471
No, but I definitely...
I think I should do it again, you know.

871
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:42,029
Yeah, absolutely, definitely you should.

872
00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:44,589
Holy shit!
It's like it goes right through you.

873
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:46,160
That's right.

874
00:49:46,240 --> 00:49:47,674
John, you gotta try this shit.

875
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:49,479
- Fuck, yeah!
- Yeah!

876
00:49:50,240 --> 00:49:52,152
Hey. Wanna bump?

877
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,836
- No? Wanna do a bump?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

878
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:56,513
Half's for her.

879
00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:58,080
Here you go.

880
00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:57,034
Say goodbye, Chuck.

881
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:01,954
Say goodbye.

882
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:07,796
Bye. Where are you going?

883
00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:10,520
Nope, not me. You. You're going someplace.

884
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:12,719
Now. Today.

885
00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:15,436
Fuck.

886
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:19,992
What are you talking about?

887
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:22,117
I don't want you in my house anymore.

888
00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:24,995
I don't want you near my kid.

889
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,595
You stink, Chuck. Okay?

890
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,637
You stink like leftover pussy.

891
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:32,439
It's making me sick.

892
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,591
- I'm taking Kimberly, and I'm going.
- What?

893
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,070
And when I come back, you're gone. Okay?

894
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:39,311
- Phyll, wait a minute.
- No.

895
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:40,754
Now, hang on a second. Just...

896
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,674
You're gone. That's all.

897
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:46,831
Listen, Phyll, please. I...

898
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:49,109
I...

899
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,159
I can't even fuckin' think straight
right now. My head hurts so much.

900
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:55,794
You wanna talk about hurt,

901
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:58,634
you live five minutes in my shoes.
Then we can talk about hurt.

902
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:58,392
What are you doin', AI?

903
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,434
I got three words for you, bubala.

904
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,113
Andre the Giant.

905
00:53:04,240 --> 00:53:06,516
What about him?

906
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,831
You're gonna kick his freak show
keister, that's what about him.

907
00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:10,832
I just got off the horn with Vince McMahon.

908
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:14,550
He's talking about doing a mixed match,
wrestling and boxing.

909
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:16,518
- Wrestling?
- Yeah.

910
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:18,671
What's the matter?
You can't get me a legit fight?

911
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,798
Look, you wanna keep working,
you're gonna have to stay famous.

912
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,270
And dancing around
with a giant in Shea Stadium,

913
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:25,953
that's not gonna hurt anybody.

914
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,393
Chuck Wepner, Garden State Goliath!

915
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:31,869

916
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:32,916
Yeah.

917
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,276
A crowd of 50,000 plus.

918
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:37,120
Lucky day.

919
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:38,874
Lucky man.

920
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:42,390
Hey, AI?

921
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:43,596
Yeah.

922
00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:45,436
Is it real?

923
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:46,636
What?

924
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:50,075
Wrestling, they fight for real?

925
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:53,793
What's so funny?

926
00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:55,712
I don't fuckin' know.

927
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,072
Andre the Giant?

928
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,555
<i>I don't think Wepner's</i>
<i>gonna be able to get to him!</i>

929
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,399
<i>Andre now has him!</i>

930
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:11,591
<i>Hanging a right to the kidney now!</i>

931
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:13,911
<i>Andre has him,</i>
<i>but doesn't know what to do with him!</i>

932
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:15,753
He can't get out of a head lock.

933
00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:16,990
Linda!

934
00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:24,635
Tell him that'll cost a beer.

935
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,915
<i>I think Andre showed a little mercy</i>
<i>by just kind of dumping him down.</i>

Hey, Flo. How you doin'?

951
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:44,750
Well, Chuck, come on in.

952
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:46,955
- That's for you.
- Thank you.

953
00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:49,157
It's called a mother-in-law's tongue.
I thought that was funny.

954
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,749
Don! It's your brother.

955
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:52,990
It's Chuck.

956
00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:54,270

00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:56,477
Your brother, you shit bird.

00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:58,750
Hey, Donny.

What are you doin' here?

961
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:01,676
What, no "hello"?

00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:03,035
Hello. What are you...

963
00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:05,510
- What's the matter? What's wrong?
- Nothing.

964
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:07,034
Nothing's wrong. Everything's great.

965
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:08,998

Don't know what?

973
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:30,711
I don't really watch that shit.

974
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:31,916
You didn't see it?

975
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:33,559
No, I didn't see anything.

Okay.

00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:55,035
So?

986
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:01,114
What's with the fuckin' "so," Don? I...

987
00:57:01,720 --> 00:57:03,632
So, never mind, you know.

All right. You know, you don't get it.

989
00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:11,838

He.

- Yeah.

995
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,112
It's like that, right?

996
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,191
Chuck, what...
What the fuck are you doin' here?

997
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:28,594
Why'd you come?

998
00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:30,512
I don't know.

999
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,240
I just wanted to celebrate.
Thought I'd come say hi.

1000
00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:34,595
The movie?

1001
00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:36,473
Yeah. My life, you know?

1002
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:40,670
My lucky day on the big screen,
Academy Awards, Oscars, you know?

1003
00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:43,753
It's nothin' to you.
It was a big fuckin' deal.

1004
00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:48,519
Congratulations.

1005
00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:52,349
Thanks.

1006
00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:00,352
What's his name? The boy, your boy.

1007
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,272
What, you talking about your nephew? Danny?

1008
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,317
That's it. I... I knew that.

1009
00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:08,478
Tell him I said hello.

1010
00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,120
Tell him the champ was here and...

1011
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:13,995
You know.

1012
00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:17,200
Chuck, you...

1013
00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:19,990
What are you doing?

1014
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:22,470
You... You wanna stay for dinner?
You can stay for dinner.

1015
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:24,592
No, I can't. I got people.

1016
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:26,194
Some other time, though.

1017
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:27,873
See you, Donny.

1018
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:59,229
Hello. Yeah, hi. I'd like the number for
United Artists in Hollywood, please.

1019
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:00,549
Hollywood.

1020
00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:04,358
Hey, Mr. Stallone,
I'm sorry to bother you, but you know...

1021
00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:06,033
Hey, Sly, my name's Chuck Wepner.

1022
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:07,918
I just wanna say I'm a big fan of all your...

1023
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:09,878
Hey, Sly. How are you?

1024
00:59:09,960 --> 00:59:11,235
My name's Chuck Wepner.

1025
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:13,352
I just wanna say
I'm a big fan of all your movies.

1026
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:14,874
You know,

1027
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:17,993
<i>Rocky,</i> that was, you know...

1028
00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:19,520
Yeah, hi, this is Chuck Wepner.

1029
00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:22,559
I'd like to speak to
Sylvester Stallone, please.

1030
00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:24,429
Wepner.

1031
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:27,840
W-E-P-N-E-R.

1032
00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:32,273
Yeah. Yeah, I think he knows who I am.

1033
00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:36,835
Listen, you ever heard of <i>Rocky?</i>

1034
00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:38,800
Hello?

1035
00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:40,470
Hello?

1036
00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:43,154
Motherfucker.

1037
00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:46,155
<i>It wasn't the money, I just wanted to</i>
<i>meet the guy, you know?</i>

1038
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:49,039
<i>It's like having a twin out there</i>
<i>in the world that you never met.</i>

1039
00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:51,510
So, what did he talk about? Pussy?

1040
00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:53,512
I bet that guy cleans up, huh?

1041
00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:56,399
John, please. Sly's discreet.
That's how it is in Hollywood.

1042
00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:57,914
- You don't talk about that stuff.
- Of course.

1043
00:59:58,000 --> 00:59:58,956
Besides, guys who get it,

1044
00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:00,269
- they don't talk about it.
- Yeah.

1045
01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:01,760
Me and him, it's professional, you know?

1046
01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,560
We talk about the Ali fight, my strategy,
I give him tips.

1047
01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:05,756
You gave him tips?

1048
01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:07,115
You didn't hear that from me, all right?

1049
01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:08,520
- Yeah, but that's cool!
- I'm not supposed to

1050
01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:09,590
talk about that, John.

1051
01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:11,592
- All right, but what do they talk...
- Will you wait a second?

1052
01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:13,034
We go in here, can you just...

1053
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:14,600
- Why are you nervous?
- Just...

1054
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:15,670
I mean...

1055
01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:18,911
<i>Stallone was an off-limit kind of guy,</i>

1056
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:21,356
<i>but I had a friend worked in</i>
<i>the liquor business in New York.</i>

1057
01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:22,920
<i>He knew where Sly was hanging out,</i>

1058
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:25,435
<i>so we told the bartender</i>
<i>to give me a heads-up.</i>

1059
01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:26,636
I appreciate that.

1060
01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:33,512
Sorry, sir,
we're closed for a private function.

1061
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,240
Yeah, I know.
How you doin'? I'm Chuck Wepner.

1062
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:39,112
How can I help you, Mr. Wepner?

1063
01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:40,520
You follow boxing?

1064
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:43,316
<i>Rocky?</i> Tell Sly, Chuck's here.

1065
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:45,471
- I can handle this.
- He should know.

1066
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:47,916
Would you mind telling Mr. Stallone that

1067
01:00:49,160 --> 01:00:50,879
Chuck Wepner's here?

1068
01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:55,673
Is he expecting you?

1069
01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:56,750
What?

1070
01:00:56,880 --> 01:00:58,599
Is he expecting you?

1071
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:01,631
Yeah. Yeah, he's expecting us.

1072
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:04,798
Hang on just a minute.

1073
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:14,670
Is that him?

1074
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:15,955
Put your fuckin' hand down.

1075
01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:17,030
Yeah. No shit.

1076
01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:19,840
Oh, my God!

1077
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:21,434
Hey, come here.

1078
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:23,000
- Hey, hey, hey.
- What?

1079
01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:25,720
Do me a favor.
Just hang back here a minute, okay?

1080
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:27,439
- What? Why?
- Give me a moment alone

1081
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:28,670
with Stallone, all right?

1082
01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:31,116
Tough guy. Tough motherfucker. Yeah.

1083
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:33,192
I cannot believe my eyes.

1084
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:34,350
Chuck Wepner.

1085
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:35,510
How are you, Sly?

1086
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:36,795
Better now. I been wanting to meet you

1087
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:38,400
- for a long time, Champ.
- Thank you.

1088
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:39,834
- It's an honor.
- Me, too.

1089
01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:40,910
Hey, meet the guys, all right?

1090
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:42,400
- Hey, guys, you know Chuck Wepner.
- How are you?

1091
01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:44,153
Hey, everybody! Chuck Wepner!

1092
01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:46,436
How are you? No. Please.

1093
01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:50,279
Hey. Hey, look, Sly, I hope
you don't mind. I didn't mean to...

1094
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:51,430
Come here. Come here. Hey.

1095
01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:53,791
<i>Turns out, my twin had been</i>
<i>wanting to meet me, too.</i>

1096
01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:56,554
<i>He even gave me a script for</i>
<i>the new</i> Rocky <i>movie he was making.</i>

1097
01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,997
Ching Weber, get it? Ching Weber,
Chuck Wepner? It's good, right?

1098
01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,037
Hollywood doesn't do a sequel
unless it's a sure thing.

1099
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:04,032
This is a sure thing. Like chicken vindaloo.

1100
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:06,919
Ching says, "Couldn't you think of
anything tougher to say

1101
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:08,559
"than, 'Oops, no stones'?"

1102
01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:11,360
I mean, come on,
how fuckin' good is that? Right?

1103
01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:12,669
- It's pretty great.
- You know?

1104
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:14,274
You thought the Ali fight was big.

1105
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:17,990
Ali's small potatoes compared to this.
They should call it <i>Wepner 2.</i>

1106
01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:20,396
What are they gonna do about your face?

1107
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:25,515
It's like I been training for this
my whole life.

1108
01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:29,116
Going toe-to-toe with Sylvester Stallone
on the silver screen.

1109
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:30,873
Notify the other planets, John.

1110
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:32,758
A star is born.

1111
01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:34,559
In fuckin' Bayonne.

1112
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:38,036
Right? Give me another one of these?

1113
01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:43,712
That's it right there.

1114
01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:44,870
<i>Rocky ll.</i>

1115
01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:47,995
I never seen one of these.

1116
01:02:48,080 --> 01:02:50,549
Not many people have. Very hush-hush.

1117
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,313
It's called a screenplay.

1118
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:53,880
- Well, how'd you get it?
- Yeah.

1119
01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:56,395
What do you mean, how did I get it?
I'm in it.

1120
01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:59,473
Sly wants me to go down to Philly
tomorrow, meet with the producers.

1121
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:01,199
Wrote me a part.

1122
01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:03,718
- You wanna run some lines?
- What?

1123
01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:05,797
It's what they do, they run lines.

1124
01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:08,111
All right, let's run some fuckin' lines.

1125
01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:11,193
Here we go. Hey...

1126
01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:13,320
Those lines.

1127
01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:33,557
"You know, in 1952,
they had me ranked number five.

1128
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:38,394
"I'm not... I'm not kidding you.
They... They ranked me number five.

1129
01:03:39,080 --> 01:03:42,630
"Marciano, Walcott, and Charles
are still around.

1130
01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:45,076
"But they had me up there
ranked number five."

1131
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:47,879
Watch. This is good.

1132
01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:53,397
"Miss, I got no special problem.

1133
01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:58,035
"I tell you what, I'm a big, ugly slob.
I look like a freak.

1134
01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:00,840
"But I was almost
the heavyweight champion of the world.

1135
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:04,638
"Why don't you put that down
on that paper someplace?

1136
01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:07,110
"Mountain Rivera was no punk.

1137
01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:11,640
"Mountain Rivera was almost
the heavyweight champion of the world."

1138
01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:13,954
Oh, my God.

1139
01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:15,474
That was good.

1140
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:17,553
Seriously, that was really good.

1141
01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:18,994
Thank you.

1142
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:22,159
You are ready for your close-up, Mr. Deville.

1143
01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:24,709
I got a lump in my throat, I swear.

1144
01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:27,115
For my second act,

1145
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,635
I'd like to do my impression of Sonny Liston

1146
01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:31,991
in his last fight with Muhammad Ali.

1147
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:33,920
Taking a dive.

1148
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:45,194
We gotta finish it.
We gotta finish all of it!

1149
01:04:58,760 --> 01:05:00,399
Come on, come on, come on!

1150
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:03,075
Chuck, hey, hey. You're supposed to be late.

1151
01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:04,719
It's show business.

1152
01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:05,916
All right.

1153
01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:10,590
Where's the button?

1154
01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:11,716
- Where's the button?
- I'll get it.

1155
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:12,756
Where's the fuckin' button?

1156
01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:14,320
There's gotta be...

1157
01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:17,160
Get your boobs out of the way.

1158
01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:18,909
Mr. Wepner.

1159
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:20,275
Hey, how you doin'?

1160
01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:22,920
- Right this way. They're waiting for you.
- She knows you. You're in.

1161
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:24,992
- This is like a no-brainer.
- Give me one of them Tic Tacs?

1162
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:28,192
I gotta be fuckin' crazy.

1163
01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:30,751
I need your friends to wait here.

1164
01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:32,911
- Wait. They can't come with me?
- Follow me.

1165
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:34,434
Excuse me. Miss?

1166
01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:36,273
Miss, they came all the way
from Jersey to meet Sly.

1167
01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:38,352
- You don't think...
- Come on.

1168
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:40,757
Hey, you wanna run lines?

1169
01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:46,160
Hey, there he is.

1170
01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:48,550
Hey, how are you, Chuck?

1171
01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:50,199
Hey, Sly. How's it goin'?

1172
01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:52,192
I'm good. Hey. You good?

1173
01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:53,953
- Yeah, I'm great.
- All right.

1174
01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:55,269
Thanks for making the trip down here.

1175
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:57,556
- Hey, I was in the neighborhood?
- What?

1176
01:05:57,680 --> 01:05:58,796
- Nothing.
- Yeah.

1177
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:00,633
Everybody, this is Chuck Wepner.

1178
01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:02,109
The real deal.

1179
01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:04,192
How you doin', everybody?

1180
01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:06,233
Boy, that's some spread you got there.

1181
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,117
Bagels and lox,
that's what I'm talking about.

1182
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:12,993
- Hey, so, let's do this?
- What?

1183
01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:14,880
You ready to read, Champ?

1184
01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:17,239
Shit, yeah. Hey.

1185
01:06:17,320 --> 01:06:19,312
- I was born ready, you know?
- Great.

1186
01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:21,153
- Hey, all right, Chuck. Okay.
- It's what I do.

1187
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:23,072
You stand right about there, all right?

1188
01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:24,799
All right, now, in this scene,

1189
01:06:24,880 --> 01:06:26,951
- Rocky and Ching are sparring, right?
- Yeah.

1190
01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:28,633
Mickey, your old trainer,
is watching ringside,

1191
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:30,916
and you are jealous
because you feel that, really,

1192
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:32,992
it should be you getting the title shot.

1193
01:06:33,080 --> 01:06:34,594
It's a bitter pill, you know?

1194
01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:37,149
There's somebody else
getting what's rightfully yours.

1195
01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:38,515
Try and feel that.

1196
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:42,236
Hey, I ain't gotta try to feel that, Sly.
It's, you know, it's me.

1197
01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:44,516
Yeah, that's right. That's perfect.
That's beautiful. All right.

1198
01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:48,440
So, I'll do Rocky,
and Charlotte's gonna read Mickey.

1199
01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:49,715
- All right.
- Ready?

1200
01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:51,120
Yeah. So, we're just...
We're just moving, right?

1201
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:52,236
- We're just working.
- We're just sparring.

1202
01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:53,350
- We're in the gym, yeah.
- All right.

1203
01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:54,430
All right, ready?

1204
01:06:55,440 --> 01:06:56,556
Hey!

1205
01:06:56,640 --> 01:06:58,120
Hey, come on!

1206
01:06:58,520 --> 01:06:59,954
Hey, what was that?

1207
01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:01,633
We're supposed to be working here.

1208
01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:03,916
- I'm sorry, Sly.
- No problem. Take your time.

1209
01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:06,960
"You're a bum.

1210
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:12,197
"I can lick you and any other guy
in this gym! One day..."

1211
01:07:13,720 --> 01:07:16,189
Yeah, but we're just working.

1212
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:18,158
I'm getting in shape for the title fight.

1213
01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:21,074
Listen, you're being paid to spar with him.

1214
01:07:21,160 --> 01:07:22,913
Just do your job.

1215
01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:27,955
- Shit, I'm sorry. Sorry. This line...
- Nah, it's all right. Look. Look.

1216
01:07:28,040 --> 01:07:29,679
- Chuck, just relax. This is you.
- I'm sorry.

1217
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:30,989
This is you. You got it. Just do you.

1218
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:32,550
Just be yourself.

1219
01:07:32,640 --> 01:07:34,791
Let's start over. Let's do it again.

1220
01:07:35,360 --> 01:07:36,714
Yeah. All right.

1221
01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:37,870
Ready? Yeah, okay.

1222
01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:39,917
- We're movin'. Come on.
- Yeah.

1223
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:41,275
Just be loose.

1224
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:43,275
Hey!

1225
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:45,238
Hey, come on, what was that?

1226
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:46,515
We're supposed to be working here.

1227
01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:48,674
You're a bum!

1228
01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:52,119
I can lick you and any other guy in this gym!

1229
01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:53,954
And one day...

1230
01:07:55,640 --> 01:07:57,677
Yeah, but we're just workin'.

1231
01:07:58,160 --> 01:07:59,753
I'm getting in shape for the title fight.

1232
01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:02,753
Listen. You're being paid to spar with him.

1233
01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:04,433
Just do your job.

1234
01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:07,038
What's goin' on?

1235
01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:12,912
I mean, he's supposed to be
my sparring partner!

1236
01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:16,636
Thank you.

1237
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:20,359
- We all right, Sly?
- Hey, look, come here.

1238
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:22,395
Come here.

1239
01:08:22,480 --> 01:08:23,675
Did I do something wrong?

1240
01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:25,797
No, no, no. You didn't do anything wrong.

1241
01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:27,280
Now listen.

1242
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:28,760
I want you in this movie.

1243
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:32,352
Go in the bathroom, take a minute,
study the script, kick it around,

1244
01:08:32,440 --> 01:08:34,875
then come back, try it again.

1245
01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:36,679
You got this, all right?

1246
01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:38,393
All you gotta do is you.

1247
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:41,270
- Okay, Champ?
- Yeah. All right.

1248
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:43,352
- All right.
- Thanks, Sly.

1249
01:10:00,960 --> 01:10:02,110
Chuck.

1250
01:10:33,480 --> 01:10:34,596
Yeah.

1251
01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:37,310
Hi.

1252
01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:43,395
Sure.

1253
01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:48,117
Two ounces? Gee, that's some party
you're throwing there?

1254
01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:51,835
All right. I'll call my guy.

1255
01:10:51,920 --> 01:10:53,877
Yeah. Okay.

1256
01:10:54,320 --> 01:10:57,358
I'll see you at the Silhouette at 8:00.
All right, bye.

1257
01:10:57,480 --> 01:10:58,994
Was that Devon?

1258
01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:02,797
- Is that his name?
- Yeah, that's his name.

1259
01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:05,440
Devon. Wants two ounces.

1260
01:11:05,920 --> 01:11:07,957
Two ounces? Geez.

1261
01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:10,359
He say where he was going?

1262
01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:13,393
You got a fuckin' one-track mind.

1263
01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:22,710
Hello.

1264
01:11:22,840 --> 01:11:24,672
<i>- Hey, it's Phyllis.</i>
- Hey, Phyllis.

1265
01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:26,951
<i>- Where's Chuck? Is he with you?</i>
- Yeah.

1266
01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:28,872
<i>Well, he's supposed to be at school</i>
<i>with his daughter.</i>

1267
01:11:28,960 --> 01:11:31,520
Right now? You sure? Chuck!

1268
01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:34,600
Chuck, it's Phyllis.

1269
01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:38,640
She says you were supposed to be
at some kid's thing? At school?

1270
01:11:46,480 --> 01:11:48,312
- Hey, Phyll.
<i>- It's Parents' Day.</i>

1271
01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:50,198
- Yeah.
<i>- What? You forgot again?</i>

1272
01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:51,999
No, I know. I didn't forget.

1273
01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:53,315
<i>Are you coming?</i>

1274
01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:55,915
- Yeah. All right, relax. Relax.
<i>- She wants to see you right now.</i>

1275
01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,600
I'm coming right now. All right. Bye.

1276
01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:03,717
You're going to school now?

1277
01:12:04,440 --> 01:12:07,274
Chuck, seriously, you don't look so good.

1278
01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:09,234
You wanna do a bump?

1279
01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:12,270
Yeah.

1280
01:12:34,760 --> 01:12:35,955
I'm here.

1281
01:12:36,600 --> 01:12:38,398
Here I am. I'm sorry.

1282
01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:40,439
Hey! Here's my little girl.

1283
01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:41,670
Hi, Daddy.

1284
01:12:41,760 --> 01:12:43,035
How's she doin'?

1285
01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:44,270
Smart as a whip?

1286
01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:46,829
Takes after her mother, thank God.

1287
01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:48,270
Where's my manners? I'm sorry.

1288
01:12:48,440 --> 01:12:49,635
I'm Chuck, Kimberly's dad.

1289
01:12:49,960 --> 01:12:51,314
Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Wepner.

1290
01:12:51,440 --> 01:12:52,510
Yeah. Nice to meet you.

1291
01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:54,717
You can call me Chuck or Champ.

1292
01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:56,029
You follow boxing?

1293
01:12:56,800 --> 01:12:57,916
No, I don't.

1294
01:12:58,000 --> 01:12:58,990
No?

1295
01:12:59,080 --> 01:13:00,070
You see <i>Rocky?</i>

1296
01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:01,514
- Chuck.
- What?

1297
01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:03,789
Is that the report card?

1298
01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:05,875
All right. Look at this.

1299
01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:07,679
It's upside down, Daddy.

1300
01:13:08,160 --> 01:13:09,640
She doesn't miss a beat, this one.

1301
01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:11,916
- I'm so sorry. It's...
- Hey, you don't have to apologize.

1302
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:13,753
- I made a mistake.
- Chuck, stop it.

1303
01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:14,990
It's a mistake. For...

1304
01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:16,480
- Stop it.
- Okay.

1305
01:13:17,240 --> 01:13:19,391
So, what are we doin' here?

1306
01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:21,831
Actually, I was just saying that

1307
01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:24,515
she's one of my brightest students in class.

1308
01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:26,319
- Of course.
- She's been doing really great.

1309
01:13:26,400 --> 01:13:28,995
- Very proud of her. Yeah.
- Good. Good.

1310
01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:30,993
Hey. Hey, I wanna show you something.

1311
01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:33,233
I... I wrote you a poem.

1312
01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:34,674
You're gonna like this.

1313
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:36,877
It's... It's called "My Little Girl."
That's the title.

1314
01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:39,236
I wrote it 'cause I miss you.
Miss you so much, it hurts.

1315
01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:40,913
Look at this.

1316
01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:43,231
"You are big now, not so small

1317
01:13:43,480 --> 01:13:44,914
"But still my baby, after all

1318
01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:46,156
"From time to time, as you grew..."

1319
01:13:46,240 --> 01:13:48,038
Let's go, baby. Come on. I'm so sorry.

1320
01:13:48,120 --> 01:13:50,157
What? Come on, honey.
I'm just a few minutes late. What's...

1321
01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:51,356
Let her go, Chuck.

1322
01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:54,319
Come on, Phyll!

1323
01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:56,592
I'm sorry! I had...

1324
01:13:58,200 --> 01:13:59,759
- Stay away from me.
- Will you stop, please,

1325
01:13:59,840 --> 01:14:01,320
just two minutes?

1326
01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:02,629
- Kim...
- No, don't you fuckin' move!

1327
01:14:02,720 --> 01:14:03,710
All right. All right.

1328
01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:05,439
You can do whatever you want
with your own life, Chuck,

1329
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:07,034
but I will not let you ruin hers.

1330
01:14:07,120 --> 01:14:08,759
- I'm sorry, okay?
- I am scared for you!

1331
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:10,553
I am scared for what's gonna happen to you!

1332
01:14:10,640 --> 01:14:11,835
Nothing's gonna happen.

1333
01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:13,877
I... I'm just a little
fucked up right now, okay?

1334
01:14:13,960 --> 01:14:15,155
I'm gonna pray for you, Chuck.

1335
01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:17,197
I haven't said a prayer since grammar school,

1336
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:18,999
but I'm gonna pray that you find the strength

1337
01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:20,275
to be a father to your daughter!

1338
01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:24,320
Hey, Kim, honey.

1339
01:14:24,400 --> 01:14:26,471
I'm gonna call you, all right? All right?

1340
01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:27,676
Roll the window down.

1341
01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:29,513
Hey, Kimberly, roll the window down!

1342
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:32,752
Your poem! Honey, roll...

1343
01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:32,278
- Jesus Christ.
- Chuck!

1344
01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:34,560
How you doin'?

1345
01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:35,910
It's you!

1346
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:37,514
Last I checked.

1347
01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:39,398
The one that got away.

1348
01:15:39,480 --> 01:15:41,949
Don't flatter yourself.

1349
01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:43,838
You never had me.

1350
01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:44,990
I know your reputation.

1351
01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:47,675
You got a line of 23-year-old cupcakes
down at the shore.

1352
01:15:47,760 --> 01:15:50,673
And if you're tryin' to sell me somethin',
I got all the liquor I need.

1353
01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:52,353
I'm not tryin' to sell you nothin'.

1354
01:15:52,440 --> 01:15:54,636
What are you doin' here then?

1355
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:57,635
I gotta meet a guy about somethin'.

1356
01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:06,040
Bad day?

1357
01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:08,438
Worst fuckin' day in my life.

1358
01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:10,989
I oughta be strung up by my balls
and horsewhipped.

1359
01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:13,960
I fucked up.

1360
01:16:14,040 --> 01:16:15,520
What'd you do?

1361
01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:28,200
I went to my little...
My little girl's school, you know,

1362
01:16:28,280 --> 01:16:30,954
for one of them parent-teacher things?

1363
01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:35,594
You know, I... I ain't seen her in a while,
so, you know, I wrote her...

1364
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:45,316
Chuck.

1365
01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:51,120
I'm sorry.

1366
01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:56,640
You all right?

1367
01:17:12,480 --> 01:17:13,994
What are the odds of me runnin' into you?

1368
01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:16,720
It's the worst fuckin' day in my life,

1369
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:19,711
and there you are,
like some angel out of the blue.

1370
01:17:28,760 --> 01:17:31,195
If that ain't a sign,
I don't know what, Linda.

1371
01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:34,390
You and me.

1372
01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:38,075
We're connected. You don't see that?

1373
01:17:38,360 --> 01:17:39,635
I tell you what.

1374
01:17:40,440 --> 01:17:43,831
There's more to you
than meets the eye, Chuck Wepner.

1375
01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:46,715
Not much, just enough.

1376
01:17:49,480 --> 01:17:51,790
You wanna know what I think?

1377
01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:52,950
What?

1378
01:17:55,480 --> 01:17:57,233
I think you like me.

1379
01:17:57,960 --> 01:17:59,679
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

1380
01:17:59,880 --> 01:18:01,917
Well, you've been hit in the head
a few times.

1381
01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:05,758
Yeah, that's true.

1382
01:18:10,880 --> 01:18:11,916
Shit.

1383
01:18:12,040 --> 01:18:13,679
Don't move. Please.

1384
01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:15,319
Don't go nowhere, all right? I...

1385
01:18:15,400 --> 01:18:19,155
Stay right where you are.
I gotta... Gotta go talk to somebody.

1386
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:28,992
- Hey, Devon.
- Hey, Champ.

1387
01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:30,356
Everything good?

1388
01:18:30,440 --> 01:18:31,476
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1389
01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:33,034
There you go.

1390
01:18:33,800 --> 01:18:34,790
Sorry, Champ.

1391
01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:41,110
Hey, Jimmy.

1392
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:42,600
Hey, Chuck.

1393
01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:11,198
<i>When it rains, it pours, right?</i>
<i>It was a setup.</i>

1394
01:19:11,280 --> 01:19:13,476
<i>They said they'd let me go</i>
<i>if I gave 'em a name.</i>

1395
01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:15,557
It's two ounces, Chuck.

1396
01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:18,310
We're talking serious time here.

1397
01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:22,832
<i>Just didn't seem right, someone else</i>
<i>paying for my stupid mistake.</i>

1398
01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:27,000
Okay, Champ.

1399
01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:29,434
One call.

1400
01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:31,840
Pick a winner.

1401
01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:40,110
Hello?

1402
01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:41,430
Hey.

1403
01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:42,750
Chuck.

1404
01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:43,950
How's it goin'?

1405
01:19:44,040 --> 01:19:45,520
Where are you?

1406
01:19:46,480 --> 01:19:49,712
Over here on 38th, at the police station.

1407
01:19:49,840 --> 01:19:50,796
Chuck.

1408
01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:52,599
You're my call.

1409
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:55,752
I got one call, I called you.

1410
01:19:55,840 --> 01:20:00,600
What, you don't have a lawyer or someone
who helps you with things like this?

1411
01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:02,993
Not at the moment.

1412
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:05,632
You need to make bail.

1413
01:20:07,200 --> 01:20:09,760
It doesn't matter.
You know, I'm going to prison anyway.

1414
01:20:09,840 --> 01:20:12,958
At least this way,
I get to talk to you, you know?

1415
01:20:13,040 --> 01:20:14,872
What about family?

1416
01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:19,756
I... I had a brother,
but he didn't give a fuck about me.

1417
01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:26,597
Linda, I know you don't see it,
but we're connected.

1418
01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:29,958
You're crazy, you know that?

1419
01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:32,509
Come on, same birthday.

1420
01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:37,319
Fats Domino. Jackie Gleason. William Frawley.

1421
01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:39,119
All February 26th.

1422
01:20:39,200 --> 01:20:40,998
Who's William Frawley?

1423
01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:42,673
What do you mean, "Who's William Frawley"?

1424
01:20:42,760 --> 01:20:44,752
He's Fred from <i>I Love Lucy.</i>

1425
01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:46,354
That's special, Chuck.

1426
01:20:46,440 --> 01:20:48,636
Three fat guys and a club fighter.

1427
01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:50,518
You talkin' about "club fighter"?

1428
01:20:50,600 --> 01:20:52,956
Hey, I'm Rocky Balboa.

1429
01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:56,280
You never heard of the Bayonne Bleeder?

1430
01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:02,520
Listen, Chuck.

1431
01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:04,193
I can't do this.

1432
01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:05,760
I gotta go.

1433
01:21:05,880 --> 01:21:07,280
I'm sorry.

1434
01:21:27,440 --> 01:21:29,033
Let's go, Champ.

1435
01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:32,757
Looks like you made bail.

1436
01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:35,870
What?

1437
01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:37,997
Yep. You still got a fan out there.

1438
01:21:45,400 --> 01:21:46,390
Don.

1439
01:21:46,480 --> 01:21:48,631
Get in the fuckin' car, Chuck.

1440
01:22:01,600 --> 01:22:03,831
Possession with intent to sell?

1441
01:22:03,920 --> 01:22:05,115
What, are you stupid?

1442
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:06,554
I was doin' a guy a favor.

1443
01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:07,915
Yeah?

1444
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:10,231
This is why you bailed
on Phyllis and Kimberly?

1445
01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:11,714
To become some drug mule?

1446
01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:14,031
You know I had to mortgage my house
to bail you out?

1447
01:22:14,760 --> 01:22:15,989
What'd you do that for?

1448
01:22:16,480 --> 01:22:17,550
What?

1449
01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:19,672
I'm sorry. I appreciate it.

1450
01:22:19,760 --> 01:22:22,036
No, you don't appreciate shit!

1451
01:22:22,120 --> 01:22:25,158
You never have, you never will, right, Champ?

1452
01:22:25,240 --> 01:22:26,230
Hi, Flo.

1453
01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:27,310
Hi, Chuck.

1454
01:22:28,480 --> 01:22:30,472
Yeah, Champ. Get in the car!

1455
01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:32,119
Fuckin' champ!

1456
01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:41,957
Just don't think I'm doing this
because I like you,

1457
01:22:42,040 --> 01:22:44,271
because I don't, you selfish prick.

1458
01:22:44,640 --> 01:22:47,519
I'm doing this because our mother,
may she rest in peace,

1459
01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:50,957
made me promise on her
goddamn deathbed to take care of you.

1460
01:22:51,040 --> 01:22:52,315
You know why?

1461
01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:53,993
'Cause she knew you're a fuck-up!

1462
01:22:54,640 --> 01:22:56,074
Your own mother!

1463
01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:58,635
With your fancy clothes,
and that bullshit with your whores

1464
01:22:58,720 --> 01:23:00,234
and now drugs?

1465
01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:02,756
You ain't foolin' anyone, Chuck!
You know that, right?

1466
01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:08,194
- You're right. I'm a fuck-up.
- You're lucky she called, instead of you.

1467
01:23:08,280 --> 01:23:09,634
I would have fuckin' hung up on you!

1468
01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:11,154
All right, I get it.

1469
01:23:11,240 --> 01:23:12,276
I'm sorry.

1470
01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:13,635
He cares about you, Chuck.

1471
01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:14,915
Don't say anything to him!

1472
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:16,354
Do not coddle him!

1473
01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:19,720
I appreciate the coconuts, Don.

1474
01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:20,950
Hey, yeah, right.

1475
01:23:21,040 --> 01:23:22,360
I'm still waiting for a "thank you" note.

1476
01:23:25,240 --> 01:23:27,072
He still follows your career, you know?

1477
01:23:27,760 --> 01:23:29,114
He always has.

1478
01:23:29,200 --> 01:23:31,396
He's got a fuckin' scrapbook
with every magazine article.

1479
01:23:31,480 --> 01:23:34,757
Every mention in the paper,
no matter how small.

1480
01:23:36,800 --> 01:23:39,554
You know he made us go to
the Ali fight, right?

1481
01:23:40,160 --> 01:23:42,038
He was so proud of you.

1482
01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:45,516
Every time you threw a punch,
he jumped three feet in the air,

1483
01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:48,957
telling anybody who would listen
that was his brother.

1484
01:23:50,360 --> 01:23:51,953
I didn't know.

1485
01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:55,832
I don't know what to say, Don.

1486
01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:58,958
Learn to not say something
every now and then.

1487
01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:02,351
Maybe you'll live longer.

1488
01:24:26,800 --> 01:24:28,154
I got plans, you know? I mean...

1489
01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:30,038
I got some things going on.

1490
01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:32,316
What do you got going on, Chuck?

1491
01:24:33,120 --> 01:24:34,952
You got people who love you, Chuck.

1492
01:24:35,040 --> 01:24:38,238
Real people. Not 'cause you fight,
not 'cause you're famous,

1493
01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:40,960
not 'cause you show 'em a good time,
just because.

1494
01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:42,554
It's that simple.

1495
01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:45,434
The only thing they want from you is you.

1496
01:24:45,520 --> 01:24:46,954
<i>That was a real low point for me</i>

1497
01:24:47,040 --> 01:24:49,236
<i>when Linda told me</i>
<i>she didn't wanna see me anymore.</i>

1498
01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:50,993
Take care of yourself, Chuck.

1499
01:24:51,080 --> 01:24:53,276
<i>I stopped thinkin' about the future,</i>

1500
01:24:53,400 --> 01:24:55,710
<i>but she was right. The hell was I thinkin'?</i>

1501
01:24:56,880 --> 01:24:58,712
<i>Why would she wanna have</i>
<i>anything to do with me?</i>

1502
01:24:59,040 --> 01:25:00,872
<i>I mean, I was going to prison,</i>
<i>for Christ sake.</i>

1503
01:25:01,800 --> 01:25:05,430
<i>To tell you the truth,</i>
<i>that's exactly where I belonged.</i>

1504
01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:13,509
Chuck!

1505
01:25:14,080 --> 01:25:15,594
Hey, Champ!

1506
01:25:15,680 --> 01:25:17,114
Chuck fuckin' Wepner.

1507
01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:18,236
The champ.

1508
01:25:18,320 --> 01:25:20,551
- Big fan, Wepner.
- What's up, Chuck?

1509
01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:21,915
Good to see you, Champ.

1510
01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:28,155
<i>I guess it took bein' thrown</i>
<i>in a box by myself</i>

1511
01:25:28,240 --> 01:25:31,278
<i>for me to realize</i>
<i>what a selfish prick I'd been.</i>

1512
01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:37,632
<i>It wasn't all bad, though.</i>

1513
01:25:37,720 --> 01:25:40,394
<i>I stayed in shape. Got to read a lot.</i>

1514
01:25:40,480 --> 01:25:42,711
<i>Life went on, inside and out.</i>

1515
01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:50,550
<i>Phyllis and me called it quits,</i>
<i>made it official.</i>

1516
01:25:51,080 --> 01:25:52,355
<i>No hard feelings.</i>

1517
01:25:52,440 --> 01:25:55,911
<i>To be honest,</i>
<i>I was surprised she didn't do it sooner.</i>

1518
01:25:57,240 --> 01:25:58,435
All good.

1519
01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:06,919
Hey, Champ.

1520
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:08,400
How are you?

1521
01:26:08,480 --> 01:26:10,358
All right, Warden. What's goin' on?

1522
01:26:10,440 --> 01:26:11,874
Well, someone wants to see you.

1523
01:26:12,400 --> 01:26:13,754
Yeah? Who?

1524
01:26:14,640 --> 01:26:15,835
You'll find out.

1525
01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:25,559
Where we goin'?

1526
01:26:31,360 --> 01:26:35,036
<i>Then, one day, one fuckin' day,</i>

1527
01:26:35,120 --> 01:26:37,430
<i>all the pieces started to come together.</i>

1528
01:26:42,600 --> 01:26:44,432
You're shittin' me.

1529
01:26:45,080 --> 01:26:46,958
It's called <i>Lock Up.</i>

1530
01:26:49,680 --> 01:26:51,399
Rocky goes to jail.

1531
01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:54,794
<i>Why the hell was I trying so hard</i>
<i>to be this guy?</i>

1532
01:26:55,240 --> 01:26:57,197
<i>He's a character in a movie.</i>

1533
01:26:57,280 --> 01:27:00,398
Come on. I'll take you over.
You can say hello.

1534
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:03,798
No, I don't think so.

1535
01:27:04,040 --> 01:27:06,874
He knows you're here. He wants to see you.

1536
01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:09,829
I'm good.

1537
01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:14,998
<i>Linda was right,</i>
<i>I had people who loved me, real people.</i>

1538
01:27:15,080 --> 01:27:17,549
<i>My brother, Phyllis,</i>
<i>my little girl, Kimberly.</i>

1539
01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:19,120
<i>I started writing Kimberly letters,</i>

1540
01:27:19,200 --> 01:27:21,556
<i>telling her how much I missed her</i>
<i>and how sorry I was.</i>

1541
01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:22,756
<i>It was nice.</i>

1542
01:27:22,880 --> 01:27:24,599
<i>Things got better between us.</i>

1543
01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:28,151
<i>I wrote to Linda, too,</i>
<i>but she never wrote me back.</i>

1544
01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:41,552
<i>In the end, I did 26 months</i>
<i>down from five years for good behavior.</i>

1545
01:27:41,640 --> 01:27:43,677
<i>Could've been worse.</i>

1546
01:27:44,360 --> 01:27:47,114
<i>But, hey, listen,</i>
<i>miracles don't happen overnight.</i>

1547
01:27:47,240 --> 01:27:49,914
<i>You don't climb out of a shithole</i>
<i>and suddenly sprout wings,</i>

1548
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:51,673
<i>like in some movie.</i>

1549
01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:53,592
<i>I still had to make a living.</i>

1550
01:27:53,680 --> 01:27:56,798
<i>My old friend Arty Stock</i>
<i>had this charity event for a good cause.</i>

1551
01:27:56,880 --> 01:27:57,870
To legends.

1552
01:27:58,000 --> 01:27:59,434
<i>Make a few bucks.</i>

1553
01:27:59,520 --> 01:28:01,034
<i>So, I did it.</i>

1554
01:28:05,360 --> 01:28:06,840
What am I supposed to do?

1555
01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:08,274
Hit it!

1556
01:28:16,760 --> 01:28:20,117
Get up...

1557
01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:25,714
<i>And now, watch this.</i>

1558
01:28:25,800 --> 01:28:27,792
<i>This part really is like a movie,</i>

1559
01:28:27,880 --> 01:28:30,714
<i>because out of this embarrassing,</i>
<i>humiliating, disgraceful,</i>

1560
01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:35,317
<i>and completely mortifying clown show</i>
<i>that I once again got myself into,</i>

1561
01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:38,154
<i>out of this, all of a sudden...</i>

1562
01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:39,799
Hey, Champ.

1563
01:28:40,760 --> 01:28:42,035
Jesus.

1564
01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:46,390
What are you doin' here?

1565
01:28:47,240 --> 01:28:49,880
Saturday night. I got nothing better to do.

1566
01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:53,431
Thought I'd come out and see you
get mangled by a bear.

1567
01:28:54,080 --> 01:28:55,833
It's not just any bear, it's Victor the Bear.

1568
01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:57,957
- He's in a movie with Clint Eastwood.
- Good for him.

1569
01:28:58,040 --> 01:29:00,077
- Cover of <i>Sports Illustrated.</i>
- Amazing.

1570
01:29:00,160 --> 01:29:02,117
- Undefeated.
- Including tonight.

1571
01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:09,672
My point is he's famous, Linda.

1572
01:29:09,760 --> 01:29:12,594
Yeah, and look where it got him.

1573
01:29:13,640 --> 01:29:16,917
I'm sorry. I didn't come here
to break your balls.

1574
01:29:23,360 --> 01:29:24,589
So?

1575
01:29:26,840 --> 01:29:28,832
I heard you got divorced.

1576
01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:33,876
Yeah?

1577
01:29:33,960 --> 01:29:34,996
Yeah.

1578
01:29:37,320 --> 01:29:38,470
Where'd you hear that?

1579
01:29:39,440 --> 01:29:41,079
Got your letters.

1580
01:29:46,120 --> 01:29:47,679
Got my letters?

1581
01:29:48,600 --> 01:29:50,956
And you couldn't even write me back?

1582
01:29:51,040 --> 01:29:52,872
Timing's everything.

1583
01:30:10,440 --> 01:30:11,635
Yeah?

1584
01:30:12,160 --> 01:30:13,594
A little bit.

1585
01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:18,118
It's just beautiful.

1586
01:30:24,360 --> 01:30:25,430
Jesus, God.

1587
01:30:28,520 --> 01:30:30,512
Okay, can we go home now?

1588
01:30:31,160 --> 01:30:33,277
What you talkin' about?
I wanna take a picture.

1589
01:30:33,360 --> 01:30:35,636
- You're kiddin'. I'm gonna throw up.
- Stop.

1590
01:30:37,080 --> 01:30:39,390
Come on. Don't cut my head off.

1591
01:30:39,480 --> 01:30:41,153
I'd be doin' you a favor.

1592
01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:46,631
Look at you, like he's your girlfriend.

1593
01:30:46,720 --> 01:30:47,790
Come on, just push the button.

1594
01:30:51,360 --> 01:30:54,080
Seriously, Chuck, what'd it get you?

1595
01:30:54,160 --> 01:30:55,435
It got me you.

1596
01:30:55,520 --> 01:30:56,476
Lucky man.

1597
01:30:56,560 --> 01:30:57,914
Let me see that.

1598
01:30:58,720 --> 01:30:59,756
Come on.

1599
01:30:59,840 --> 01:31:02,719
That is one handsome son of a bitch there.

1600
01:31:03,040 --> 01:31:05,271
You don't look so bad, either.

1601
01:31:06,920 --> 01:31:09,913
- You know what I'm gonna do right now?
- What?

1602
01:31:10,000 --> 01:31:11,116
I'm gonna kiss you.

1603
01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:12,429
What, is that a warning?

1604
01:31:12,520 --> 01:31:13,636
Yeah, right now I'm gonna kiss you.

1605
01:31:13,720 --> 01:31:17,475
First I'm gonna weave to the left,

1606
01:31:17,560 --> 01:31:19,313
bob to the right...

1607
01:31:29,600 --> 01:31:31,000
I love you, baby.

1608
01:31:31,080 --> 01:31:32,912
- I love you.
- Yeah?

1609
01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:35,915
Good.

1610
01:31:37,200 --> 01:31:38,759
Come on. Let's get out of here.

1611
01:31:40,040 --> 01:31:41,190
<i>Nice, huh?</i>

1612
01:31:41,720 --> 01:31:43,996
<i>This is what they call a happy ending.</i>

1613
01:31:44,080 --> 01:31:45,594
<i>Who would've thought it?</i>

1614
01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:47,637
<i>Not me. Nope.</i>

1615
01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:49,276
<i>See?</i>

1616
01:31:49,360 --> 01:31:52,512
<i>Sometimes, life really is like a movie.</i>

1617
01:31:53,400 --> 01:31:55,278
<i>Sometimes it's better.</i>
