Rest in Peace Carl Weathers!

I hope its not disrespectful to say that i know the man only as Apollo Creed. Still he is part of my childhood watching American movies and seeing the great story where enemies become best friends!

[@mikeking1948]

Rocky did a helluva job blocking Drago's punches with his face. What a defensive strategy

I love all rocky training montages but this one. this one's the best.

[@hydro.pl.27]

Rocky realistically, would’ve been killed by Drago. Apollo may have been older but Rocky and him had a lot in common as fighters. The difference is Stallone being older and getting Hulk Hogan style strength to gain victory over his opponents. Mr.T’s fight on the other hand was just as a dominating performance for Rocky the 2nd time around.

[@user-kd8xs1xh1s]

That's the whole point of the rocky movies, He may not have been the best fighter via clubber lang and drago but he was known to take a beating, That's how he beat his opponents, He took a beaten, tired out his opponents then beat them

[@user-vh2mf1kt3c]

Disagree. Clubber was a puncher. Rocky was a street fighter

[@douglashaner6802]

Like it or not Apollo was unnecessarily rude and arrogant. What could have been presented as an opportunity to show respect between 2 nations came across as the American being an arse.

[@robatkinson3986]

It’s a film bro 🤣

[@r7ahtesham885]

The entire thing was a glam show for Creed.. It was an exhibition match. And it was supposed to be a massive form of entertainment. But nope.. Creed got bodied and from a deleted scene.. It was hinted that it was kind of planned.. As nikolai told drago something, which made drago look at him in a very irritated but subtle manner.

[@nez9751]

[@pipmick2775]

I always loved the training montage in this film, the contrast of older techniques vs modern, artificial ways of training for a boxing match - old vs new. The mixture of the filming and the elevation and the crescendo of the music to match what was onscreen was masterful. This is one of my favourite sequences of film of all time and I saw this in the cinema when it was released in the UK - a very special moment for me that I have never forgotten.

[@thunkjunk]

Just about anything from that period is better than any modern movie.

[@username.exenotfound2943]

training in the mountains is probbaly better anyway because of the higher altitude and cold

[@LivegoodWilliam]

Man i remember watching this in the cinema, it wasn't just a film it was an event. Everyone was on their feet chanting Rocky, Rocky. and when he won it was like the place erupted. It was good to be a kid then

That crushing right punch by Rocky at the 8:55 mark of the video was a cinematic masterpiece. I remembered the reaction of movie fans inside the theater when watching that movie way back in 1985. Half the audience inside the theater collectively stood up and starting cheering. It was almost if we were all watching a live closed-circuit boxing match at the theater which was a popular feature on watching championship fights back in the day. An old lady wearing a knit sweater sitting in front of us stood up and started shadow boxing during that scene and yelled out loud "Knock his block off!" Fun moments.

[@dorkyrouge3372]

Sylvester Stallon was lucky to have found Dolph as the character for the movie..... Last minute pick....But chosen correctly....❤

[@judeanthony3766]

Rest in peace mr apollo creed.

[@DavidM_GA]

During filming Stallone told Lundgren to hit him with a real shot ... and sent him to the hospital for 9 days.

[@syedalamgir5838]

I saw this movie year 1990 fantastic Rocky.

[@rhysnichols8608]

Dolph Lungren actually looks like he knows how to fight…..Carl weathers also look pretty good in his fight scenes too, but you could tell he wasn’t a boxer. Dolph was a karate world champion and had experience in multiple martial arts so he is the most believable. Stallone also a great athlete but he makes the fight scenes too unrealistic for me, getting constantly smashed in the face, should’ve shown some slipping and dodging in the choreography imo.

[@ZAK19857]

Drago would have destroyed Stallone I agree it’s very unrealistic how Stallone could withstand his punches let alone Apollo creed. Mind you he did put Stallone in hospital as he wanted the fight scenes to look realistic. In an interview he said he was hit by dolph that hard that he said he felt like he was hit by a car impact caused swelling to his heart he was in intensive care for two weeks.

[@GameLover45408]

Funnily enough, I think I read somewhere stating that the Rocky character is based on Rocky Marciano, an old boxer known for using his face to block attacks. Dude is incredibly resilient

[@Paul-cm9zs]

[@Kneegrow-mj4he]

Everybody was so hype even the trainers fed into it

[@vinaymulukutla358]

That's quite a moment when Drago realises upon being cut by Rocky and subsequently pummelled that Rocky is a serious threat and how having taken Apollo out so quickly, his underestimation of Rocky was a serious mistake.

apollo did not have a chance he was clearly outmatched by Drago. It is very obvious that Ivan Drago would easily beat apollo creed. apollo was running his big mouth but was clueless what he was facing against the very powerful Drago.

[@rhysnichols8608]

True but appollo was retired and waaaaay past his prime. He also didn’t take the fight seriously, it was an exhibition match. Apollo from Rocky 2 who was actually serious would definitely perform a lot better, Drago could still likely win but it would be a good fight
