The Real Rocky.

This statue just went up in the city I grew up in. Brockton MA.

It's the largest statue of a pro athlete in the world.









The only undefeated heavy weight champion and Brocktonians are very proud.

It's "The City Of Champions".

Not many can retire undefeated! Shame he didn't get to live it out without accident.
