Season 1 Episode 306
In 1975, boxing great Muhammad Ali faced off against an underdog - Chuck Wepner - in a match held at Summit County's Richfield Coliseum. Wepner held up for almost 15 full rounds, and even scored a rare knockout against the reigning world champ. Wepner's performance in Ohio inspired an out-of-work actor named Sylvester Stallone to sit down over the next three days and pen the script for one of Hollywood's most iconic films.
