Just watching Rocky 3 now and he has bulked up considerably from Rocky 2 leaving me to beleieve he rather than Drago may have participated in anabolic drug experiments.

Clubber Lang reminds me of Roy Keane.  

How come Clubber didn't have another rematch with Balboa considering he hammered him in the 1st fight.  Rocky won the 2nd so it should have gone to a best of 3 type fight scenario.

Agreed.  Rocky with his natural training methods and the Soviet doping to the nines with Comrade Bigmouth speaking for him.


Question:  If Mrs. Drago said to Mrs. Creed ''they are athletes not soldiers'' then why was Drago wearing a Soviet Army uniform at the press conferences?LOLEmbarrassed

I always felt Rocky V got a raw deal. Thought it was excellent. The street fighting climax was superb. A classic tale of betrayal and riches to rags for the Balboas.

The Don King rip off was a bit cheesy plus his sudden desire to go back to rocky 2 type surroundings.  Compared to the new releases it looks like an Oscar winning film.

He forgot LOL  He fought with brain damage and a blind eye and still fought southpaw style even though he couldn't with the eye. Hero.

Think Stone explained that in a press conference when doing Rocky Balboa, he said something like

"Well Yo you know, advances in doctors and science would have seen that he only had very bad concussion after that fight, he never gets a 2nd opinion about the brain damage "

Rumours that there is going to be a prequel to the original Rocky. Set in the 60s and how a young Robert Balboa met Mighty Mick and started his foray into boxing.

Stallone is apparently insistent on playing the lead role.
