After a tremendous battle in which this fighter, a prohibited underdog, had knocked down the champ he needed several dozen stitches to close cuts over both eyes.

That fact didn’t slow down the humorous quotes this boxer was known and admired for. Asked about the bloody mess his face had become he responded; “I’ve cut myself worse shaving”.

The day of the fight he bought his wife a powder-blue see through negligee and told her; Baby wear this tonight cause you'll be sleeping with the champion of the world.' That night after the bloody fight which he lost in the 15th round his wife humorously busted his balls, 'Do I get to go to the champs room now?!"

With seconds to go the champ stung our trivia boxer who was exhausted and collapsed into the ropes. As the ref counted the champion known as Mohamed Ali collapsed short of his corner.

Ali later said “"There's not another human being in the world that can go 15 rounds like that."
A young Sylvester Stallone watching the fight from home was inspired by the dramatic ending and the incredible effort of the 15-1 underdog that he started a script that very night to a movie he later named; Rocky.
He earned $100,000 for the fight and returned to his full time job as a liquor route salesman. Now that’s a guy I wouldn’t mind having a drink with.
