Very cool ! My inlaws almost bought the house Rocky grew up in during the late 70's but ended up just down the street. When they looked at the house the basement was full of trophys, banners, medals, all types of different stuff. They asked the agent what was going to happen to it and they were told it came with the house ! The sad part is whoever bought the house probably threw it all out. I have met many of Rocky's friends from his childhood and they all say he had a punch that could crack a brick wall and would love to see him and Tyson fight as they had the hardest puches ever, and of course they would put money on the Rock. All the Brockton residents always put money on Rocky to win and made good side money on him over the years as he never lost.
