I still like the first rocky the best. Shows what guys do for such little money aswell as what life is like once the dream of being champ is gone but the need to fight is still aound.
then my list would go:
Rocky II
Rocky IV
Rocky V
Rocky III......................Rockyn'
i used to love rocky 3,4,5 but when i started to learn about boxing and watching the real boxers fight i start to think that it rocky 3,4,5 was all a big joke.
For example, the fights were damn fake, c'mon!
Rocky 3-what kind of a fighter is clubber lang? He takes thousands on punches on his face and he barely flinches yet alone get hurt. While he throws a few left hooks and knocks rocky down?
Rocky 4-Totally the opposite, Ivan Drago was supposed to be alot stronger than Clubber lang in punching power and proved that by killing Appolo Creed.
Apparently the machine that was used to measure his punching power measured a strong heavyweight to have a score of 800. Ivan Drago had a score of over 3000, yet in the fight he couldn't even defeat Rocky despite Rocky suffering millions of blows to the head.
I liked Rocky 1 and 2 better because it had a true purpose to all boxing fans who want to become a boxer. Even that was a bit fake, rocky's a total bum who struggled against other club fighters but yet after about 2 months of hard training he is at a world class level defeating the undisputed world heavyweight champion of the world, Appolo Creed. I think Rocky 1 symbolises how real boxing is like, not too flashy and quiet realistic.
