Title: Rocky 3
Post by: 240 is Back on March 03, 2014, 08:07:42 PM
It's on AMC right now.  Clubber Lang was a bona fide badass... working his tail off while Rocky got soft doing the Muppet show & signing autographs.

How have I never seen this movie before?

Did one/both of them use juice for their 1982 movie role?  Did the "T" in mr. 'T' stand for testosterone?

Your thoughts on thunder lips??

this trainer guy, ,Paulie?  Seems like an awesome dude.  He just got drunk and broke an arcade game.  Love this character!


Stallone was a horrible actor back then lol... unreal how bad he was.   He should be winning Oscars today, based upon how much he's improved.

Great movie. I remember getting pissed off in the theater when clubber hit the great Burgess Merideth (Mickey) killing him. Great way for Rocky to get his heart back into the fight though.

I'm a big fan of this Clubber Lang's work ethic and attitude.   Killing it in an empty dungeon basement while Rocky grins thru a soft workout as a band plays and bubbles pop around him.

The Rocky story is based on journey man fighter Chuck Wepner. Ali wanted a tune up fight and they picked Chuck to fight. Chuck Wepner never fought a professional fight without having a real job. This was the first fight he trained for with no job to get in the way. He was from New Jersey and not Philly.

Stallone saw the fight and wrote Rocky.  Early on he always mentioned Chuck but after time denied the movie was loosely based on him. They settled out of court with Stallone's lawyer's telling the actor they would lose the case if it went to trial.

For you guys that don't know the about Chuck Wepner he was rumored to have shady connections to the mob as an enforcer. Rocky was a collector for the mob. Chuck Wepner fought Ali and took a beating. In the 9th round he knocked Ali down with a body blow. Ali said he tripped from Chuck stepping on his foot and punching him. When Ali got up he gave Chuck a beating but Chuck fought back standing right in front of him. In the 15th round Ali knocked him down. Chuck staggered to his feet with seconds to go in the fight but the referee had seen enough.

Chuck had some hard times after the fight. He was approached to "fight" Andre the Giant for a wrestling match. Chuck knew nothing about the sports entertainment wrestling. He went along with the fake stuff not knowing what to do but when he was thrown around roughly by the 7'4" 500lbs plus guy he decided to hit him to inform him he was being to rough.  Andre got pissed off and picked him up throwing him out of the ring causing an unscripted chaos where everyone involved wanted to fight for real.

Well, he changed his tune later

Did you see his training regimen compared to Ivan Dragos training in Rocky 4?

Events in life change your perspective on things.

Rocky persevered, changed and adapted, while Clubber Seal was nowhere to be found in Rocky 4 since he faded like a burnt out match.

Chuck the Bayonne bleeder Wepner. I remember watching that fight and my dad and my friends dad where amazed at the bloody beating he took and still kept fighting.

so his trainer died, very sad.  He lost a fight that, well, it was pretty obvious to everyone outside his bubble he was gonna lose.  

But he's still under 30 and a multi-millionaire.   Instead of waltzing around with Apollo, why not just call it a day and live the good life?

a movie like this really  makes me appreciate a dude like Floyd Mayweather...

He's worth $170 million and still finds the motivation to train hard enough to beat the best boxers in the world.

He's got more money than he can ever spend, and is still willing to work insanely hard, take painful punches, restrict his diet.

If I had that much money, it'd be a $19 steak + cheese danish + $8 bottle of Menage a Trois merlot, and I'd be happy.  No sense getting off the recliner and getting punched in the head a bunch of times.

I guarantee the IRS owns most of his money.
But he is very motivated to fight hand picked fighter...they all were, Mike Tyson being the biggest example.. sorry to hijack the thread.

True! Chuck was the Bayonne Bleeder! Saw the Andre and Wepner at the Spectrum in Philly at the Spectrum on Closed Circuit! It was the undercard of Antonnio Anoki vs Ali!
