I don't think he actually had one.

the fight with Apollo was an exhibition fight and then Rocky was stripped of his licence I believe when he agreed to fight him in Russia

Wasn’t the fight with Apollo Drago’s first professional fight?

Impressive performance nonetheless.

No Drago didn’t have a licence. It was purely an exhibition fight. 


Here’s one for all you Rocky enthusiasts who want to learn what came of Drago. Well according to Stallone he got hooked on booze and steroids before taking his own life.

Is he?  Ah sure that wouldn't surprise me.  Sure Apollo wanted to star in the new film and he died in Rocky 4 in 1985.

Or Stallone now aged 72 wanting to play the role of his teenage self.
