OLD MAN: What in the hell are you two doing?
You're supposed to be on the floor working.
I'm working.
I gotta call Jeremy.
RICK: What are you calling him about?
COREY: This guy's got two Rocky Marciano
custom-made punching bags.
OK
OLD MAN: Yeah.
Well, I want to test them out.
But I still got it, right, Rick?
RICK: Really, dad?
CHUMLEE: I think you still got it, boss.
RICK: [LAUGHS]
What-- what is that?
OLD MAN: That'll take and put you on the ground, son.
This one, I call "the hospital."
This one, I call "the morgue."
Understand me?
[CHA-CHING]
JEREMY BROWN: This is amazing.
I mean, Rocky Marciano is just an absolute legend
in the world of boxing.
He's one of the greatest heavyweights of all time,
and just pummeled his opponents in the ring with just
unparalleled power, despite the fact
everyone called him undersized.
He had this unbelievable ability to knock
whoever he wanted to flat on their ass with a single punch.
SCOTTY: I've watched footage of this guy fight.
He is scary.
This guy's knocking out big guys.
49-0 with 43 knockouts, it's hard to argue.
SCOTTY: I know.
JEREMY BROWN: Rocky Marciano embodied
what a great heavyweight champion should be.
He didn't have the greatest reach or height,
but he made up for it in just brute power and charisma.
And he's the only champion to go through his entire career
undefeated.
COREY: You know, he's asking for a lot of money. $375,000.
OK.
You know, I have no idea what to pay for these
or what they're worth.
JEREMY BROWN: What I can tell you, the most valuable piece
of boxing memorabilia ever sold, Muhammad Ali's
trunks from the Fight of the Century against Joe Frazier,
$175,000.
You mentioned that there's paperwork or affidavits?
SCOTTY: Yes.
Now, these run from my father-in-law
all the way through guys that were there with him
when he gave them the bags.
JEREMY BROWN: OK.
I had occasion to travel to Grosenger's Training Camp
in New York.
This was the camp used by Rocky Marciano.
While at Grosenger's, I was present when Mr. Marciano gave
his personally-designed and custom-made
heavy bag to Peter [INAUDIBLE].
SCOTTY: That was my wife's uncle.
JEREMY BROWN: OK.
These were custom-made for Rocky?
SCOTTY: Yes.
OK.
Well, that's the tricky part, because they're one-of-a-kinds.
As far as the value on these, they're worth as much
as somebody's willing to pay.
Marciano is a huge name.
He has a huge following.
It's hard to assess a value, because they are one-of-a-kind.
With one-of-a-kind items, you never know.
There could be some guy waiting out there for something
just like this with deep pockets,
who can pay a million bucks.
Unlike autographs where you have established third-party
authentication services out there,
there's really not a company who's an authority that can
authenticate these because of the fact they're one-of-a-kind,
there's no serial numbers, markings
anywhere specific on it.
There's really not a smoking gun, so to speak,
that without a doubt links these bags as the bags
mentioned in the affidavits.
You know what, though?
The thing is I would have to say is that definitely
it links him to there.
I've seen photographs all over the internet.
I've seen this bag with Rocco on it in Grosenger's.
I've seen that back with Rocco punching it.
JEREMY BROWN: OK.
SCOTTY: So it's there.
JEREMY BROWN: What I'm saying is there's
nothing in the paperwork stating that this is bag
XYZ and this bag is XYZ, so to speak, that we know
definitively this is the bag that Marciano
gave to those folks in the paperwork.
SCOTTY: So as much as your guy, you
know, doesn't think he can put the pieces together,
they definitely fit.
So--
COREY: Do they $375,000 fit?
That-- that's the problem.
I believe that they're real.
I think that they could be, and I think that could
be worth a lot of money.
Sure.
COREY: But it's kind of like the--
you know, the baseball hat that Babe Ruth took off his head
and threw to a kid in the crowd.
Right.
COREY: It's very, very hard for that kid, 50 years down
the line, to say, this is the hat
Babe Ruth threw to me when I was in the stands
at Yankee Stadium.
SCOTTY: Oh.
But-- but these affidavits are true.
COREY: But.
I mean, you have affidavits from nobody I've ever heard of.
SCOTTY: I have photographs with Rocky and the bag--
COREY: You have photographs with Rocky and a bag.
SCOTTY: --and my uncle, and my brother-in-law,
and our friends.
COREY: You know, you may have a point.
And you know what?
You might be 100% right and everything else.
It's just not a chance I can take, not with my money.
OK.
You're missing out here.
COREY: I mean, is there a guy out there that would
pay a million bucks for it?
I'm sure there is. SCOTTY: Sure.
Sure.
But is that guy gonna come stumbling into my shop,
and see it hanging on the wall, and buy it?
SCOTTY: I know. I know.
I-- COREY: No.
I would really very much try to sell them in an auction house
and get somebody else to put their-- put their name with it.
Really?
COREY: They could definitely be worth some money.
And you know what?
The sky could be the limit on them.
All right? SCOTTY: All right, man.
Appreciate it. SCOTTY: Thank you.
Thank you. SCOTTY: All right, dude.
I think that the paperwork does really
prove the validity of the bags.
Along with the photographs, I know it's Rocky's bag.
We all know it's Rocky's bag.
