    After posting my last thread on Chuck Wepner, I was really sort of disappointed that more posters didn't give him his due credit. Therfore, I'll repost a thread on him, for the sake of playing the part of a child who simply can't take know for an answer. Needless to say, I'm sure that everyone on the forum will give their best efforts at trying to give Chuck full credit for the all time great warrior that he was, and appease me in the process.

    Let the compliments on the Great Chuck Wepner begin

    He knocked down a guy that was pretty/very hard to knock down... says a bit for his power.
