Come on, champ. You ain't so bad!

Come on!

Come on!

You're out!

We made a deal.

I know, but this is extremely crazy.

Yeah, it's mentally irregular.

But it makes sense.

You owe me a favor.

I know, but when did you think of this?

About three years ago.

This is very crazy, Apollo.

Look, Stallion

you won that last fight by one second.

You beat me by one second.

That's very hard for a man
of my intelligence to handle.

Is it? Didn't you say afterwards

you learned how to live with it?

I lied. You lied.

So now you have to prove it to yourself?

Just for myself. No TV or newspapers,

just you and me.

Nothing. Just you and me.

Age before beautyAnything you say, son.

I do all the work.

You better go slow.

You ain't as young as springtime no more.

I'm still young enough to whip your butt.

Yeah? How will you do that?

You taught me everything you know.

Almost everything.

Remember, you fight great

but I'm a great fighter, you ready.

Absolutely. All right.

You know, Stallion.

It's too bad we have to get old, yeah?

Just keep punching, Apollo.

Want to ring the bell?

All right.

Come on!

Come on!

You really move good for an older guy.

Look at him fly. Look out.

No, you don't want any of this.

Maybe I'm in here with the wrong guy.

Dad, you're late.

Mom's going to yell at you.

How you doing? Fine.

Don't you think that's a little bright?
A little bit.

Where'd you get that hat?

A friend gave it to me. Like it?

Who punched you in the eye?

Same friend.

That's weird. Better hurry, Dad.

You know, you're developing
a very loud personality.

Don't go too fast or
you'll get out of focus.

Really?

Yo.

Yo, It's about time.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Why don't you get ready to eat, ok?

You're here. Now stop calling him name.

You been calling me names?

We wait any longer, it
will be my next birthday.

Where have you been?

Out getting punched.

Bring the cake in here,

and let's get the celebration underway.

I'm hungry.

Babe, get the cake. He'll love it.

We have a great surprise for you.

You'll love this cake, ok?

You'll love your present, Uncle Paulie.

Where is it?

Let me set the mood here. I
have to turn the lights down.

Watch this.

It's parked in the driveway?

Just be patient, would you?

I'm so excited, I'm sweating.

I feel like I'm going into a big fight.

Happy birthday, Paulie.

What the hell is this?

Your present.

I wanted a sports car for my birthday.

Not a walking trash can.

Come on, he looks great here.

This is extremely psycho.

Since you don't have any friends,
we thought you'd like it.

Yeah. Pretend you're happy. It'll keep
you company when you're all alone.

That's a great-looking guy.

Please make a wish.

It's creepy! That thing talks!

Creepy? These things are great! I
wish I had one when I was growing up.

Make a wish, like he said.

I wish I wasn't in this nightmare.

A very classy wish.

What do you think?

Very good.

Want to help me put out this forest fire?

Sure.

On the count of three. One.

Two.

Three.

They're out.

You drowned me!

Don't worry.

I'll clean it up for you, Paulie.

Rocky.

Yeah, you noticed.

What are you doing with that cake?

The party ain't over yet.

Still got to celebrate.

It's a special night.

Yeah, it's Wednesday.

It's definitely Wednesday.

But in case you forgot.

It's almost been nine years
since you married me.

So here's your prize.

But our anniversary's a week away.

That's true. But why wait?

Has it been that rough? No.

It's been excellent.

Open your prize. Go on.

All right.

Do you like it?

It's beautiful. All right.

I was so nervous. I didn't know.

I hope you like it.

The guy I bought it from says.

Even if it looks like a snake, don't worry.

It won't bite you.

It's beautiful.

You know what's amazing?

After all these years.

Everything still seems kind of new.

You remember a long time
ago I told you that

you ain't never getting rid of me.

Remember that?

You're not.

You're never getting rid of me.

Happy almost anniversary.

Can you answer a few questions?

How long you here for?

We talk later, please.

When are you fighting, Drago?

We talk it later.

Is it definite the Soviet Union

will enter professional boxing?

Please, no more talk now.

We will talk at press conference.

Do you know where it will be held?

We talk it later.

Today may have proved to be a
landmark in sports history.

After unraveling years of red tape,

Russia will now throw
its hat into the ring.

The prize ring, that is.

The introductions were made by
his wife Ludmilla Vobet Drago.

She was the double gold
medalist in swimming.

Today the Soviet Union has officially
entered professional boxing.

My husband and great undefeated
heavyweight world amateur champion.

Captain Ivan Drago.

Has come with his trainers to America

to compete as an international
sportsman and ambassador of goodwill.

Has Drago ever boxed against
a real professional?

From having been trained in Russia
by great boxing coach, Manuel Vega

and now by Sergei Rimsky, we
hope he's qualified to do so.

Hope?

Well, I know he is, but I don't
want to sound too confident.

If possible, we would like to

have an exhibition bout with your
famous champion Rocky Balboa.

What makes you think he can fight
someone as seasoned as Balboa?

No one can match his
strength, his endurance

or his aggressiveness.

You sound like he's indestructible.

Yes, he is.

Well. Can this mammoth Russian,

already nicknamed the Siberian Express,

wreak havoc among the
professional heavyweight ranks?

Whoever he fights first,

it'll be one hot ticket.

We'll be right back with a check on
today's pro football scoreboard.

Dad, when can I learn to fight?

I can't hear you. What?

I want to learn to fight.

Could you turn your robot down?

You see I fight,

so you don't have to fight.

I want you to use your head for something

instead of a punching bag like I do.

Your head doesn't look like a punching bag.

That's nice. Thanks a lot.

It looks like a catcher's mitt.

A wise guy.

Mr. Balboa, Mr. Creed's on the phone.

Yeah? I'll be right there.

You can get it right here.

I hope it's not another rematch.

Don't worry about it.

Hello? Yeah, Apollo.

Turn that down. How are you doing?

Yeah? You're coming out?

That's great. What am I doing?

I'm just getting dizzy.

My husband and I thank you for coming
to our training quarters today.

As you can see, it is highly advanced

and we wish to show the
American press a small portion

of the advances our country's made

in the technology of human performance.

Coach Rimsky, what does all
this do to enhance performance?

Well... If I may answer.

It makes a man a better man

a great athlete a super athlete
by harnessing all his strength.

Though most of the world is
ignorant in body chemistry,

we wish to educate your country.

There have been rumors of doping

and distribution of anabolic
steroids in the Soviet Union.

Has Drago partaken in any such experiments?

No, Ivan in naturally trained.

Then how do you explain
his freakish strength?

Like your Popeye, he ate
his spinach every day.

Shall we have a demonstration?

Please do. Thank you.

A normal heavyweight

averages 700 pounds of
pressure per square inch.

Drago averages 1850 pounds.

So the result is quite obvious.

What results are those?

Whatever he hits, he destroys.

He's big and he's strong, but he's clumsy.

I know I can beat him.

Why do you want to fight again?

It's something I believe in.

You can do your homework.

Okay. Later, Dad.

Later, Uncle Paulie, Apollo.

Later, big man. See you later, kiddo.

Don't you think people are expecting
to see Rocky whack this bum out first?

Yeah, and he will when it's for real.

This is just an exhibition bout.
It's kid stuff.

What's the purpose?

What's worth getting hurt for?

What the hell is that?

That's my girl.

Thanks, honey. You're welcome.

Nice song.

It's my favorite. You're the greatest.

See you, sport.

See you.

Paulie, who taught it to talk like that?

She loves me.

Like I was saying,

I don't want this chump to
come here with all that hype

trying to make us look bad.

They try every other way.

With Rock's help, we can
get great media coverage,

We can make them look bad

I think it's wrong.

It's never been more right.

You're a great fighter,

but you've been retired for five years.

Don't you think it's time to
think about something else?

How much can you take?

Either of you.

I'll get the coffee.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.

I just care about you both.

You ever try these comics?

No.

Keeps your fertility.

Paulie.

This was a great fight.

Great? I'm getting punchy just watching.

What you using for a chin there, Stallion?

I should have slipped that one.

Yeah, You definitely should have slipped.

It's crazy how people care about you
when you're in that ring bleeding,

but once you step out of that
ring, you're ancient history.

You ain't ancient history.

Nobody's asking for autographs.

Apollo, Can I ask you something?

What?

You know this fight you're
having against the Russian.

Do you think maybe it ain't against him?

If it's not him, then who is it against?

Do you think maybe it's
like you against you?

No, I think you really are
getting brain damaged.

That's what I think.

Yeah, maybe, but

I'm speaking the truth, Apollo.

Are you? Yeah.

I don't think I want to hear this.

Come on, Apollo.

You're a great fighter.
No doubt about that.

But we have to face the facts too.

You don't want to believe it,
but maybe the show is over.

That's easy for you to say.
You're still on top.

What happens when you're not on top?
Then what?

Where do we go? We sure
can't be born again.

I know we can't be born again,
but we have to change sometime.

I don't want to change! I like who I am!

I like who you are too, but look at that.

You don't want to believe this,
but that ain't us no more.

We can't do that the way we did before.

We're changing. We're turning
into regular people.

No, maybe you think you're changing.

But you can't change what you really are.

Forget all this money and stuff around you.
It don't change a thing.

You and me don't even have a choice.

We're born with a killer instinct,

you can't turn off and on like a radio.

We have to be in the middle of the
action because we're warriors.

Without some challenge,
without some war to fight

then the warrior may as well be dead.

So I'm asking you,

as a friend,

stand by my side this one last time.

You're a great talker, Apollo.

All right, but when this is over.

You know me, Stallion.

I always think of something else.

That's what I'm afraid of.

All right, you have a deal.

I feel sorry for that guy.

Apollo, what made you decide to
put on an exhibition with Drago?

Call it a sense of responsibility.

Responsibility, how?

I have to teach this young fellow
how to box American style.

Isn't Drago a little inexperienced
to be in the same ring?

Some folks have to learn the hard way.

No knockout prediction?

I'm not angry with him.

I just want to show the world

Russia doesn't have all the best athletes.

How do you think Apollo should fight Drago?

Personally, the first thing
you need is a ladder.

How does it feel to spar with
the great former champion?

The man's tongue didn't
come through customs.

My husband is very happy
to have this opportunity.

It's his dream.

Dream. How do you mean?

In our country, Apollo Creed is
well-known and very respected.

It could be a good victory.

Wait a minute. Win?

You don't really think you're
going to whip me, do you?

He didn't come here to lose.

You hold on, little lady.

Lose and lose royally he will do.

How can you be so sure?

I've been with best, I've beaten the best.

I've retired more men than Social Security.

Excuse, please.

You are not very realistic.

Where did you come from?

What are you talking about?

You can box, yes,

but you are far too old to
think you can win over Drago.

Is that a fact?

Yes, and it could be a painful one.

You put that heavy bag without
balls in the ring with me

and you'll see the meaning of pain!

Why do you insult us?

You just hold on here.

Don't make me out as the bad guy.

I came to talk about a friendly
exhibition bout till you started up.

Come right the big mouth body.

You are the aggressor! This is obvious!

I wish to say to the press in all fairness,

Drago should not even fight this man,

He is a has-been!

You get that big chump
in the ring right now!

Bring it on. I don't want to hear her.

Just let that chump go.

All right

I said what I feel.

We'll finish this in the ring.

You understand? Whatever you like.

You and all your puppets just shut up!

You are history, chump.

How did I do?

A little loud for my taste.

But good? Yeah, very good.

Welcome one and all to the city of lights.

Las Vegas,

and one of the most
unusual events in years.

East meets West.

Age versus youth in a
goodwill exhibition match

as the former champion Apollo Creed

takes on a mountain of
muscle from the Soviet Union

Ivan Drago.

Come on. Patience is a virtue.

I'm ready to rock and roll.

I understand, but you need your equipment.
There you go.

Now you look like a mummy.

I feel like a mummy. Does it feel okay?

It feels great. I could eat nails.

I never tried them things.

What?

I never had snails.

I seen them in the garden, but
I never wanted to eat them.

I didn't say anything about snails.
I said, "nails,".

Nail. Stallion. Yeah.

You look pretty good

but do me a favor when you go up there.

Try not to wear yourself out.

Yeah, wear myself out.

It's just that you haven't been
in the ring for five years

I just want you to maintain a bit.

You sound like I'm an old man

I'm in the best shape of my life.
I'm stronger. I'm quicker

I'm not saying you're not ready

but, personally, if it were me

I wouldn't mind postponing
it a couple weeks.

Postpone? Yeah.

Come on, we don't really know anything
about this guy you're fighting.

Let's say I postpone.

I pull out, somebody else
steps in and whips this chump.

Where does that leave me? What do you mean?

It's just some exhibition fight.

This don't mean nothing.

No, that's where you're wrong.

This is not just an exhibition
that doesn't mean anything.

This is us against them. Come on.

Stallion

maybe you don't know

what I'm talking about now

but you will when it's over.

Believe me, you will when it's over!

Drago.

Good luck.

I hope after we can be friend.

I hope so.

Of course.

They're sportsmen, not soldiers.

Enjoy the fight.

Good evening, everyone.

Along with Warner Wolf, I'm Stu Nahan.

We welcome you to a most unusual event.

For the first time,

West against East in professional sports.

Thanks for getting me here.

I owe you one.

No, we're even.

God, I feel born again.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome

I would like to announce the
presence of a true fighting champion

that defines the word courage.

The Italian Stallion, Rocky Balboa.

Excuse me, would you.

Certainly.

Rocky.

Tonight's special event features

two great athletes.

In the blue corner weighing 221 pounds

the former heavyweight
champion of the world

the Dancing Destroyer

the King of Sting

the Count of Monte Fisto.

You think you have enough names?

Be patient. We're almost done.

The Master of Disaster, the one and only

Apollo Creed!

The crowd anticipating a great fight.

Apollo is playing to the crowd.

In the red corner

weighing an even 261 pounds

gold medalist and undefeated
world amateur champion

from the Soviet Union

the Siberian Bull

Ivan Drago!

I want you!

I want you!

The two fighters come to
the center of the ring

for the instructions from
referee Lou Filippo.

You boys know the rules.

Watch your low blows, kidney
punches, rabbit punches.

In case of a knockdown,

you go to the corner I tell you

and you stay there until
I tell you to come out.

Shake hands and let's have a good fight.

It's time to go to school, son.

Get your hands up.

Do you need an interpreter?

It's time to go to school.

You will lose.

All right.

The bad blood between these two

can be felt all over this arena.

I can't get over the size of this Russian.

It's show time!

Excuse me.

Didn't you forget something?

Come on

Apollo seems to be in
great spirits tonight.

He's really putting on a
show for this capacity crowd.

Be back in a minute.

Round one.

Creed dancing around
Creed backpedaling now.

He's been away five years.

Don't wait him, get out first.

Come on.

Come on.

Neither fighter ready to throw a punch.

A left jab there.

A left jab once again by Creed.

A slip by Creed.

This is bizarre.

Creed is over the hill,

and the Russian hasn't fought anybody.

Keep moving! Stick him! Apollo.

Drago moving in again.

A left hand by Creed and another.
Drago moves away.

Come on.

Get your hands up!

Another left hand by Creed!

Drago waiting, cocking that right hand.

Get out there!

Get out of there!

And a left hand!

He's taking some punishment now!

Drago moves him against the ropes!

Tie him up now!

Now the Russian throws
Creed across the ring!

Move!

It is Drago with the upper hand!

Drago with a left to the midsection!

Get out of that corner!

Another right and another right!

Another right, another right!

Creed is against the ropes!

They step in and stop it!

What are you guys doing?

This is supposed to be an exhibition!
You understand?

Just an exhibition!

A tremendous end to the
first round by the Russian.

And a very bloody Apollo Creed.

The Soviet's strength is incredible!

Champ, I have to stop you.

This fight's finished. I have to call it.

Champ, you can't do no more out there

I'm here to fight.

He's killing you. I have
to stop this thing.

I'm here to fight.

Promise me you won't stop this fight.

That was a pulverizing
round for the ex-champion

Ivan Drago is definitely for real.

Don't stop this fight no matter what

no matter what.

Creed comes out for round
two, dancing around.

The legs appear to be
still a little rubbery.

Get your hands up.

Get your hands up.

Now it is the Russian just standing there.

The Russian trying to intimidate Creed.

The Russian throws a right
hand and staggers Creed!

Another right to the jaw!

A left to the head!

Creed is being pounded without mercy!

Stop the fight!

The referee tries to step in

and he's thrown across the ring!

Throw the towel!

No

I have never seen Apollo
take so much punishment!

Throw the damn towel!

No.

No.

My God!

Creed is down!

Apollo could be badly hurt.

Let him breathe!

Get move back. Get these guys out of here!

The winner: Ivan Drago.

Let me through! Apollo!

I cannot be defeated.

Is he okay? Somebody get a doctor!

There is no movement by Creed.

Get that light off him!

I defeat all men.

Is he dead? Get out of here!

It's absolute pandemonium!

Stand back.

Let him breathe!

You can do it.

Soon

I defeat real champion.

Where's the stretcher?

Let him breathe!

What started out as a joke has
turned out to be a disaster.

Creed appears to be in
very serious condition.

Is the man alive?

You can make it, Apollo.

If he dies, he dies.

There's a lot I could say about this man

I don't know if it matters now

I guess what matters is

what he stood for

what he lived for

and what he died for.

You always did everything

the way you wanted it

I didn't understand that, but

now I understand

I'll never forget you, Apollo.

You're the best.

Rocky, is the decision final?

Yes.

Are you the first to give up his crown?

I don't know about that.

Doesn the title mean
anything to you anymore?

Not until this is over.

Coach Rimsky, considering
Rocky's known punching power.

Do you still think this
will be an easy fight?

Yes, of course. It's a matter of size

and evolution. Isn't it, gentlemen?

Drago is the most perfectly
trained athlete ever.

This other man has not the
size or the endurance

or the genetics to win.

It's physically impossible
for this little man to win.

Drago is a look at the future.

There's been no mention yet, but how
much are you making for this fight?

No money.

It's not about money.

Has the fight date been set yet?

December 25.

Why Christmas?

That's what I was told. Where?

It's in Russia.

Are you nuts?

What's going on?

Why did you agree to this?

We fight in Soviet Union
or we fight nowhere.

Why don't you ask Drago's
wife why she is afraid?

Tell them, please.

I'm afraid for my husband's life.

We have threats of violence everywhere.

We are not in politics.

All I want is for my husband to
be safe, to be treated fairly.

You call him a killer.

He's a professional fighter, not a killer.

You have this belief that
you are better than us.

You have this belief that
this country is so very good

and we are so very bad.

You have this belief that you are so fair

and we are so cruel.

It's all lies and false propaganda.

To support this antagonistic
and violent government!

"Violent"?

We don't keep our people behind
a wall with machine guns.

Who are you? Who am I?

I'm the unsilent majority, big mouth!

Good!

Yes, insult us!

It's more typical rude behavior
toward visiting foreigners.

But perhaps this simple defeat of
this little so-called champion

will be a perfect example

of how pathetic and weak
your society has become!

We go!

Mrs. Balboa!

How do you feel about going to Russia?

How does it feel to be part of
such a controversial decision?

Did Creed's death make
up your husband's mind?

I don't know what you're talking about!

Why will fight in Christmas?

Is it his decision?

When will you go to Russia?

I'm not going to Russia. I don't
know what you're talking about.

Or what you people are doing here.

You all right?

Yeah.

Fine.

Why did you do it?

I just have to do what I have to do.

You don't have to do anything.

No, Adrian, I do.

I have to leave this place too.

So where are you going?

They said they would let
me train in Russia.

I just want to go someplace where

I won't think of nothing except him.

Rocky, give it some time.

Don't do this.

A lot of people live with hurt.

Adrian, a lot of people
don't have the choice.

I do.

And for that you're willing
to lose everything?

This ain't everything.

This house and the stuff we have

ain't everything.

There's a lot more than this.

Before, there were reasons to fight

I could understand.

But I don't understand this.

Even if you win, what have you won?

Apollo is still gone.

Why can't you change your thinking?

Everybody else does!

Because I'm a fighter.

That's the way I'm made.

That's what you married.

We can't change what we are.

Yes, you can.

You can't change anything.

All we can do is just go with what we are.

You cann't go with what we are.

Have you read the papers?

Do you know what everybody says?

Everybody says it's suicide!

You've seen him. You know how strong he is.

You can't win!

Adrian always tells the truth.

Maybe I can't win.

Maybe the only thing I can do

is just take everything he's got.

But to beat me

he'll have to kill me.

And to kill me

he'll have to have the heart
to stand in front of me.

And to do that

he has to be willing to die himself

I don't know if he's ready to do that

I don't know

I don't know.

Be careful with the plaid ones.

They belong to the boss.

Did you pack your toothbrush?

You know how tobacco stains your teeth.

If I've told you once, I've
told you a thousand times.

Stop busting my chops

I'll have her wires tied when I get back.

When will you be back?

Pretty soon.

Are you scared?

No.Yes, you are.

A little maybe?

Wouldn't you be?

If a big giant man wanted to beat me up,

I'd be real scared.

The truth is, sometimes

I do get a little scared.

When I'm in that ring really getting hit

and my arms hurt so much I can't lift them

I'm thinking, "God,

I wish this guy would hit me on the chin,

so I don't feel nothing anymore."

Then there's another side that comes out

that isn't so scared.

It's another side

that wants to take more

that wants to go that one more round

because by going that one more roundwhen

you don't think you can.

That's what makes all the
difference in your life.

You know what I mean?

Can you remember one more thing?

Remember that.

Daddy thinks you're the
best boy in the world.

And Daddy loves you, no matter what

I have to go now.

Will you take care of everything.

Don't forget to feed your robot.

Bye, babe.

Good luck.

Thanks.

Come on! The meter's running!

What a horrendous flight.

This is Russia? Don't look so tough.

Mr. Balboa.

We take you to quarters now.

When does the sun come up?

This is detrimental to my sinuses.

Weather changes hour to hour.

Get used to it.

Get in car now.

We have very long trip.

He sounds like Dracula's cousin.

Come on, Paulie.

Like you requested, yes?

You requested this dumb location? Yeah.

Why? You planning to grow
reindeer or something?

I just wanted to get away from things.

The equipment you requested

is in barn.

Who are they? "They"?

They are assigned to you.

Official chaperones.

Where you go, they go

I have a bad dream here.

It's okay. It's okay?

This is below human standards.

There's no antennas. You have to complain.

We'll crack out here.

You have everything I have
been instructed to provide.

We are finished, yes?

No sparring?

I don't think I need it anymore.

No sparring? No TV? Nothing?

How the heck is he supposed
to train around here?

No TV. What about the Rose Bowl game?

No room service, I bet.

I hope they got my comics here.

What a depressing vacation.

Goddamn.

Checkmate, friend.

Champ, can I come up? Sure.

How you doing?

Pretty good.

Some kind of weather we're having.

It's pretty rough.

But for what you have to do it's good.

Toughen you up

I guess so.

You'll have to do almost everything alone

but I'll be with you. Yeah, I know

Apollo was like my son

I raised him.

When he died

part of me died.

But now

you're the one.

You're the one that's

going to keep his spirit alive.
You're the one

that's going to make sure
he didn't die for nothing.

You'll have to go through hell

worse than any nightmare you ever dreamed.

But in the end

I know you'll be the one standing

I'll try

I'll try.

You know what you have to do.

Do it.

Do it.

Thanks, Duke

I couldn't stay away any more

I missed you

I missed you

I'm with you no matter what.

"No matter what"?

No matter what.

No pain.

No pain.

No pain.

Drago.

Drago.

Hello, everybody, and Merry
Christmas from a very unusual place.

We're in Moscow in the Soviet Union

I'm Barry Tompkins along with Al Bandiero.

This promises to be the most-watched
event in boxing history.

The iron horse from America, Rocky Balboa.

Drago.

Since that tragedy in Las Vegas
and the death of Apollo Creed.

Drago has been nicknamed Death From Above.

The General Secretary of the Soviet

and other members of the Politburo

have made their way to their seats
high above the ring here in Moscow

I know you're busy just now

but I want to tell you some things

I never told you

I know sometimes I act stupid

and say stupid things.

But you kept me around when others
would have said, "Drop that bum."

You give me respect.

It's hard for me to say these things

because that ain't my way

but if I could just be someone else

I'd want to be you.

You're all heart, man.

Thanks, Paulio.

Now blast this guy's teeth out!

I'll try.

One of the fighters is starting
to make his way toward the ring.

Listen to this crowd!

This borders on pure hatred.

Rocky's face absolutely like stone.

He is the picture of concentration.

The booing crowd here does not
seem to bother him one bit.

The champ has a look tonight
that can burn through lead.

The booing crowd has absolutely
no effect on the man.

His concentration seems to be like stone.

That's my dad.

We know. We're not nerds.

Listen to this crowd. It sounds insane.

Now the entrance of the
Russian national champion

Ivan Drago, a man with an
entire country in his corner.

Look at the expression on
the face of Ivan Drago.

He seems impervious to the
madness of the crowd.

He's like a volcano just waiting to erupt.

The Russian champion is amazingly
cool as he acknowledges his premier.

I'd like to point out again
this is a non-sanctioned fight.

This is not for the title.

The American boxing commission
has not sanctioned this bout.

Ladies and gentlemen.

It's unbelievable.

I've never seen such a hostile crowd.

It's an unbelievable sight to see.

They're toe-to-toe.

The Russian towers above the
American It's a true case of

David and Goliath.

The condition of both men is unbelievable

I must break you.

Remember what I said back there
about wanting to be you?

Forget it.

Thanks, Paulio.

Take it straight to him and
be a rock for me. Understand?

Be strong!

All right? Take it to him.

No pain. No pain.

Do it!

There's the opening round bell.

Rocky comes into the center of the ring.

The Russian way back
into Balboa's corner now.

Get out of there! Let's go!

Once more, it's Drago backing
up Rocky with a jab.

Balboa is not staying on balance

because of the Russian's long jab.

Brace yourself!

Hands up!

Charge him! Now!

He can't seem to touch the Russian!

Rocky pounding away at the
midsection of the Russian!

He hit him with everything he's got!

Drago just smiled at him.

Keep chopping away! Chop him down!

Come on, Rocky.

Rocky Balboa is in serious trouble!

They might have to stop this one
before somebody gets killed.

Break his rhythm!

Rocky's hurt. He woke the sleeping giant.

Now he's paying the price.

A solid hand from Drago sends Rocky
Balboa 15 feet across the ring!

And the champ is down!

Rocky, get up!

Hand up.

Hand up.

Drago continuing to punish Rocky Balboa!

He just will not let him
out of that corner!

Rocky Balboa is just trying to
get through this first round.

The Russian just threw Balboa into
his own corner like a rag doll.

A tough first three minutes for Rocky.

He's not only fighting what appears
to be an invincible opponenthe's

also fighting a very hostile crowd.

The Russian Premier and most of
the Politburo are looking on.

What's happening out there?

He's winning

I see three of him out there.

Get the one in the middle.

Right, hit the one in the middle.

Take his heart. If you hurt
him, you'll take his heart.

No pain. No pain.

Take his heart.

Keep working!

There's the bell for round two.
It's been a one-sided fight so far.

It will take more than luck for
Rocky to survive this round.

Rocky's been hit with bombs.

Slip and hook!

Balboa trying to stay in the middle
of the ring against the big Russian.

Move the head!

Do you get to do. Stay with him!

No pain!

Rocky!

Balboa goes down again!
Bounces right back up!

He's getting killed!

Rocky Balboa has taken Ivan
Drago's best punches so far.

He's cut and bleeding,

but he's on his feet and on the run.

He's cut!

He dead!

The Russian's cut! It's a bad cut!

Now it's Rocky Balboa
coming after Ivan Drago!

Incredible! Get him!

The Russian wants to go on!

He grabs Balboa by the throat!

Balboa picks up the Russian

and throws him to the
ground like a wrestler!

It's a gutter war!

No holds barred in Moscow!

Rocky may be on the receiving end so far,

but he's here to fight!

This is shaping up to be a personal war.

Right now,

it's anybody's boxing match.

You're doing good.

I couldn't do better myself.

You got him hurt bad. Yeah.

Now he's worried. You cut him!

You hurt him! You hurt him!

You see? You see?

He's not a machine! He's a man!

You want it more than he does!

No pain! No pain!

Okay, Take it to him!

A big right hand by Rocky Balboa!

You're doing great.

You've come a long way.

Charge him! Now!

Punch him!

Come on!

A few cheers now for Balboa.

Suddenly Moscow is pro Rocky!

No pain.

Keep taking it to him.

Al, this place is ready to explode.

Lethal punch after punch!

Amazing willpower!

Neither man backing off.

Rocky Balboa's determination

is actually winning over
the once-hostile crowd.

This is incredible.

What round is it?

Fifteenth. One more round.

There's no stopping us now.

This is our round.

No stopping now!

You start, and you don't stop!

All your strength!

All your power! All your love!

Everything you've got!

To win, you have to knock him out!

Punch till you can't punch no more!

This is your whole life here!

Knock him out.

Do it now!

There's the bell. The war is on.

This is the last round.

To the end.

Which one of these fighters

will be standing at the end of this round?

Drago snaps out a stiff jab

and another.

Go on.

Rocky taking punishment,

trying to get inside!

He's completely exhausted.

Come on, cut him.

What are you waiting for?

Hit him!

Come on, fight!

Balboa is chopping the Russian down!

Drago's hard right hand stuns Rocky Balboa.

Don't go down!

Don't go down. Go away.

Forget technique. Forget strategy.

This is just a street fight.

It's a question

of who wants it most.

What is he doing? He's winning!

To the body!

Come on!

Rocky

knock his head off!

Rocky, knock his head off!

Come on! Finish him!

Don't stop.

Don't stop.

You're gonna do it!

Four.

Six!

Rocky Balboa has done the impossible

and these people love it!

It is absolute pandemonium!

Thank you

I came here tonight

and I didn't know what to expect

I've seen a lot of people hating me

and I didn't know what to feel about that

so I guess I didn't like you much either.

During this fight

I seen a lot of changing

the way you felt about me

and the way I felt about you.

In here, there were two guys

killing each other.

But I guess that's better than 20 million.

What I'm trying to say is

if I can change

and you can change

everybody can change!

I just want to say one thing to my kid

who should be home sleeping.
Merry Christmas, kid!

I love you!

I love you!
