Sly and Wepner Settle
Sylvester Stallone is seen
in this January 21, 2005 file photo in Universal City,
California. Former heavyweight boxer Chuck Wepner has
ended his bid to get compensation from Stallone for using
Wepner as inspiration for his 'Rocky' movies. Lawyers
for Wepner and Stallone filed notice in U.S.
District Court in August 2006 that they have settled
the 2003 lawsuit for undisclosed terms. - Craig |
