In this episode, we check out the life of the man who inspired Sylvester Stallone to write the Rocky character. He came from the streets and loved a bar-room brawl even more than a fight in the ring. In boxing, he was known mainly for two things, being the bloodiest fighter, maybe in boxing history, and getting a shot, out of nowhere, to fight Muhammad Ali, for the heavyweight championship of the world! Life after boxing consisted of life selling liquor, legally, and for a little while, selling cocaine, illegally. A federal investigation brought an end to that, but years later, he's in trouble once more, this time for being involved with memorabilia forgery! Learn more about your ad choices.

An Irish immigrant, a collection agent for crime bosses, a professional boxer, and a prolific gambler, John Morrissey was—if nothing else—an unlikely candidate to become one of the most important figures in the history of American history. John Morrissey, was a two-fisted Irish immigrant who, more than any other man of the age, represented the nefarious links between organized crime, politics, sports, and high finance in America. The loose inspiration behind Leonardo DiCaprio's character in The Gangs of New York , he was an undefeated bare-knuckle prize-fighter, widely recognized as the national champion, as well as a feared gangster and mob boss before either term was coined, rumored leader of the Dead Rabbits street gang, and eventually U.S. Congressman and member of the New York state senate.

We tell the odd story of the Haitian-born adopted Canadian fighter who came to another country, as a small child, grew up in foster care, and ran the streets, putting himself in all kinds of dangerous situations. He ended up becoming a world champion boxer, with an exciting, crowd-pleasing style, and a growing fan base. Sounds like the dream, right? Well, there was a very murky past, that people weren't aware of. Like doing time in prison, for absolutely horrific, and downright disgusting crimes! Once it all comes out, no one looks at him the same, despite his winning ways. Finally, his career is ended by a series of punches that puts him in a coma, and makes his survival anything but assured, but the question remains is it a story of retribution for past transgressions or redemption for turning his life around after being on death's door?

He has more wrap sheets than you can count, but one thing remains true, he's a self-destructive, but very nice person. An Olympic gold medallist, he became heavyweight champion of the world, in only his eighth fight, and from that moment on things went downhill at an almighty pace. He had his teeth stolen, multiple times. But there is one part of him that is incredibly impressive, and it's not his right hand! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices…

In November 1982, South Korean boxer Duk-Koo Kim entered the boxing ring to fight American boxer Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini in a highly awaited bout that received a lot of media attention. The two were competing for the WBA lightweight title. In the 14th round of what was a ferocious contest, Mancini headed straight for Kim, where he blasted him with a sharp left hook. Mancini missed with a left and a right, then connected with a straight right to the centre of Kim’s face. The South Korean tumbled backward, falling flat on his back, and sliding underneath the ropes. Kim stayed down for a couple of seconds before rolling over and getting to his knees. His vision was impaired, and he struggled to grasp the lower rope. Once Kim clutched it, he stood halfway up and began to stumble backward. Referee Richard Green recognized the injured fighter’s instability, waved both hands over his head, and declared the fight over. Sean & Johnston present the story of two fighters from contrasting backgrounds who created a moment that would destroy lives and change boxing forever! Learn more about your ad choices.
