A prime Apollo Creed would've beaten Ivan Drago.

    Drago had a punching power of up to 2150 psi and could knock out a horse...he would have been the champ had Union Cane not ducked and dodged him before he took on Tommy Gunn

      Creed (Leonard was a huge fan, by the way, he studied Apollo a lot) would have won a decision every single time in America. But in Europe against Drago, he loses every time.

      Please don't RED K me. It was a different era / political climate back then.

        Apollo shouldn't have fought him.
        He knew he needed to cheat to beat a slick, black fighter.
        Apollo still had bigger PPV #s anyways.
        It was a clear case of the 40 lb theory.
        Drago outweighed Apollo 261 to 221 on fight night.
        All of Drago's wins should be called into question.
        How could Drago's countrymen condone cheatin like he did?
        If you supported Drago facin Rocky, you are a bad boxing fan.
        We shoulda all boycotted that cheater.


        I can't believe he wasn't drug tested.

          creed and drago would be a great match up if the money was right...but i think that drago should get the larger share cause he's bringing all of mother russia to the table...the ppv and gate numbers would be preposterous...
