𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐍𝐎: 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐋 𝐋𝐈𝐅𝐄 𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐎 - On March 4th 1943 at the age of 20, Rocky Marciano was enlisted into the Army and was sent overseas to fight in Europe. Marciano was assigned to the 150th Combat Engineers and stationed in Wales where he helped ferry supplies across the English Channel to Normandy. The 150th regiment went on to receive honorary service stars for their assistance in Normandy and Central Europe during World War 2.

Marciano first took up boxing in the army, reportedly as a way to get out of kitchen duty.

When the war ended, Rocky received an honorable discharge from the Army with the rank of Private First Class, in order to pursue his boxing career.

Rocky Marciano went on to finish unbeaten his entire professional career with 49 wins, 43 KO's and 0 defeats. Marciano remains the only fighter ever to have stopped every opponent he ever faced for the world heavyweight title.

The word legend is thrown around a lot these days. But, Rocky Marciano is a true legend.

The man was known for training relentlessly, giving him the ability to carry his power all the way to the fifteenth round.

𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐕𝐎 𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐄𝐋𝐎 - A terminally ill 7-year-old boy battling a malignant brain tumor expressed his final wish, to call and speak to his hero, Canelo Alvarez.

What Canelo did wasn't just a call, it was something much bigger. The entire hospital and his family were stunned! Canelo turned up to meet the boy in hospital in his dying days. This is the kind of role model we want for our children.

Brilliant!

𝐃𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 that Elvis Presley once stood up Muhammad Ali the greatest for a secret sparring session between the two legends?

Back in 1973, Elvis, a huge fan of Ali's, wanted to test his skills in the ring with the boxing champ. However, when the time came for the showdown, Elvis got cold feet and went on a binge for 12 whole hours. Elvis strolled into the gym at 4am intoxicated wanting to spar a then absent Muhammad Ali 😂

Can you imagine the hype if that match had actually happened? Drop a like if you think Elvis missed out on an epic moment in history!
