Forgotten MMA: Wepner vs Andre the Easter Island

[LurkenLikaGherkin]

Credit where it's due. I was looking at the other place, a longtime "OG" dummy over there cited this fight, which I had no idea even happened, ever, saying it was "epic."

Chuck Wepner vs Andre the Giant, on the undercard of Ali/Inoki. Madness!

Why can't we have a badass undercard with at least one additional fight like this?

Have not watched it yet. Posting it with benevolent wishes that posterity might also appreciate knowing about it (may it live up to the "epic" promises):
