    None of the fighting in ANY OF THEM was "realistic"...a 60 year old man getting up from numerous knockdowns to lose a split dec. to the defending champion... 29 YEARS AFTER his vision was so bad that the second Creed fight almost didnt come off...and then 23 years AFTER the doctors say the Drago fight almost killed him, etc etc etc

      The 4th one was actually very biased, but... that's what the American market wanted, so I can't blame them for wanting to make money off of anti-Soviet sentiment. I also thought it was absurd that Drago's management decided to make him fight a former heavyweight champion in his first pro bout, straight from the ams.
      Yea, it was an exhibition, though, and Creed hadnt fought in something like six years at the time...

          I meant Balboa...

          That exhibition apparently didn't count on his pro record. The last I checked, Drago's pro record was 0-1.

              I thought Tarver did a terrific job playing Mason Dixon, thoughts?

                      If Mason "The Line" Dixon was real... he would be the perfect ideal boxer.

                      Like Wladimir Klitschko, except he KOs everyone.
