Now don't get me wrong, i understand rocky won, and the fight was good for boxing, but honestly, Drago got the ring he wanted, the hometown advantage, probably picked glove sizes and everything. Rocky should have at least demanded Random Blood Testing for ivan drago, odds are, drago would have backed out of the fight, and rocky could have gone on to say he was the best without proving it, and let his friends death not be avenged.
Bottom line, Rocky's promoter sucks.
But i totally would love to see ivan vs pauli (either, rocky's corner guy or mallinaggi) but i'm only doing ppv for mallinaggi
*sorry for the mispelled last name of pauli*
Also why would Drago agree to take such a test? Drago was not a cheater, he passed all of drug tests in the past without problems, people would have taken that as trying to duck Drago.
On the balboa drago 24/7 if you look closely there are scenes where drago is clearly being injected via syringe with some substance, i've heard its just saline because he had a problem with dehydration, but seriously that shit should have been checked out, just to be on the up and up.
mosley never tested positive for steroids...
Seriously dude, what does Rocky, Drago, Lang, Creed, and chuck norris have to do with Mosely? Seriously, WTF don't you have 1million other threads to discuss that!!!
the grown ups are talking important shit here!
what's stopping him from throwing a punch? he is chuck norris after all.
Either way, chuck norris can't take a blood test, because his blood will break out of the tube and kick the living shit out of the phlebotomist
I lost respect for Rocky when he ducked Lang for a 3rd fight. Lang had the decency to give him a rematch, he could have atleast showed the same class back. Also why would Drago agree to take such a test? Drago was not a cheater, he passed all of drug tests in the past without problems, people would have taken that as trying to duck Drago.
**** the ring, Manny and Floyd should just take this to the streets like Rocky v Tommy "Machine" Gunn
We can't get that on ppv with commentary though, and those two things really enhance my boxing experience.
But honestly, anymore i bored with the rocky movies, they have plot, and drama, and its about the best versus the best, and honor and all that other bullshit that compels you to watch the movie and care about the fighters, **** that; instead i'd rather have a movie about months of contract negotiations for a fight that falls apart at the last moment, that to me is OSCAR worthy and exciting!

Manny would never catch Floyd in the streets, think of all those alleyways he run could down

i believe chuck norris will pwn both ivan and rocky simultaneously, at any weight class.
Thats a ridiculous statement NOOB! Chuck Norris was never a boxer!
Rocky was never tested till the first clubber lang fight. Rocky v Creed was war, took everything out of Creed, then rocky learned to use both hands and not just be a one dementional southpaw fighter so obv he won the rematch versus a past prime creed. Rocky probably should have fought Lang a third time to really settle the score and let everyone know whos who, but instead he took on much stronger competition, and continued to win, i think everyone kinda wonders what would have happens during balboa lang 3.
