  • I know Rocky didn't really train hard...but if he had Micky with him, I think he might have won.

  • tbag rocky

  • Who needs blocking anyways!

  • It happened the worst what can happen to a boxer. Getting civiliazed.

  • I would like to have seen a match between Apollo and Clubber Lang. That would have been very interesting to see watching Apollo fighting Lang the way he trained Rocky to fight Lang. I think Apollo would have worn him down and then closed in for the kill.

  • @kenpalmer1965 If he'd thought he had a chance of beating Clubber, he'd have challenged Lang to fight after Clubber had won the title from Balboa. But Apollo was significantly older now and figured he could gain some glory by helping his old nemesis, whom he'd grown to respect over the years, to make a successful comeback.

  • Rocky had absolutely no chance here because he wasn't as hungry as Clubber Lang, and he didn't take the fight as seriously as he should have while he was training for it as you saw in the gym, and Mickey knew that. Also, Rocky had fear in his eyes and Clubber saw that. And finally, Rocky was too shaken up with his manager laying in the back suffering from a heart attack. He just wasn't comfortable without him in his corner. This whole formula spelled defeat for him.

  • i think apollo would have school clobber lang

  • Come on balboa, made we way! uhh! uhh! come on balboa uhh! uhh! Ima smoke'm! ima smoke'm im smoke'm. Lol!! That was the shit. When i was playing fight night and I was beating some ass I would always say Come on balboa! Uhh! Uhh!

  • Rocky Balboa: He was Tebowing (0:10-0:13) long before it was cool!!!

  • Rocky lost because his heart wasn't in it. He had his mind on Mickey instead of the fight. If he had trained hard and had Mick in his corner, he would have won.

  • @Smartguy561 No.....lang was better than rock in that fight....the style,the punches ...and eye of the tiger. Mick knew that all the time. Rocky int his fight didnt have chance against clubber lang.

  • clubber lang is smokin joe frazier, apollo creed is ali,

  • @nygiantsable Clubber Lang = Shavers or Foreman, not Frazier

  • Rocky wasn't a bum he was a pure hearted guy with no luck or opportunities in his life until Apollo picked him for title fight. And he wasn't a fool either, he was, as he just had, as he mentioned in the second movie, a ``relaxed mind`` which means he didn`t worry much about what ordinary people worry so terribly about and that he was more of a positive thinking humanist guy who loves people and doesn`t judge anybody and doesn`t possess hatret.

  • If Lang was able to keep his temper down he would have had held the title for longer I guess. And I'm not so sure about Lang knocking out Drago due to several reasons:

    First, Ivan used steroids which made him unnaturally strong

    Second, although Clubber's physical strengh is undeniably incredible, I doubt he had the same heart that Apollo and Rocky had, in order to just endure Ivan's literally ``killer`` punches

    Third, Ivan had tactic as well, but Lang just attacked at will with no tactic.

  • @HalflingShireFolk

    Chill out man its just a movie...

  • @TheNeoton hahahaha I know dude I didn`t mean a fight I just enjoy so much writing opinions and views on YouTube particularly over classic cult masterpiece movies like this that`s all. Cheers dude!

  • @HalflingShireFolk

    Well look at it this way. Rocky went toe to toe with Drago for 15 rounds and came out on top. when he tried that with clubber he was ko'd in 2 rounds. so clubber is stronger than drago and would ko drago.

  • @19OfficerDude I don't know... Rocky trained for two years to fight Drago. For this fight with Clubber he did what... a few weeks worth of half training half posing for fans?

  • Mr.T as Clubber is my fave Rocky character.

  • Rocky needed a new smarter game plan to beat this opponent, that's what separates Clubber from the rest. The other fighters, Rocky beat coming straight ahead, taking their best shots first, then coming back and beating them. Rocky in the last fight with Clubber came off first, let Clubber swing and miss, draining him of his strength. If Rocky would've let Clubber come off first, he wouldn't have lasted the first or second round, Rocky would've been tired and hurt.

  • Of all of the opponents, Clubber Lang was the best. Apollo was very good and had the best skills but he couldn't put Rocky away, Rocky was way stronger and more determined than Creed. Ivan Drago was the strongest, most powerful but he's disqualified in my eyes because he was like an experiment, a freak, plus he was juicing. Lang was raw and powerful, Rocky couldn't beat him straight ahead like Creed and Drago, he had to resort to a "Sugar Ray" style, hitting and moving, letting your hands go.

  • Dolph Lundgren and Mr. T are the beasts in rocky series. i admire both of them although i think that mr t could outbench lundgren for a little

  • Comment removed

  • In reality Mr. T could outbench stallone for at least 70 kgs in rocky 3 for god's sake clubber lang is a man of respect from a point of view

  • In this fight Mr. T introduced Rocky Balboa to his friend "pain." :-D

  • I almost cried the first time I saw this. What happened to Rocky's cast-iron jaw he had during his fights with Apollo and Drago? He shouldn't have tried to fight Lang toe to toe. He's way too strong

  • Althought I wonder, if Drago didn't use all those steroids, how strong would he REALLY be in his naturally trained state?

  • @HalflingShireFolk That`s true.

  • Clubber was a hothead. In the rematch he actually made a mistake by underestimating Rocky. He was right as well, I must say, becaue Rocky was too weak for him but Lang couldn't assume or presume that Rocky could possibly come up with new fighting tecniques, which Rock DID. And that's how he was able to beat Lang. Not by strenght.

  • If anyone can truly match Rocky in bravery and true warrior spirituality, that's Apollo Creed. Rocky also knew and mentioned that he (Apollo) was the best and I agree. Apollo was one hard guy. And yet, he always remained a compassionate and sincere gentleman.

  • Clubber mentioned that he lived and trained all by himself. Nobody to support him in hi training OR his private life. That includes love life. He is no robot he is a human and even the toughest man needs somebody or some people around him to support him psychologically and in other ways, and that's a fact. I think that's one of the reasons that Lang could hold his title for very long. He was ambitious yes, but he lacked the ultimate support. He is a loser anyways. Remember what he did to Mickey

  • Clubber Lang was the strongest fighter ever in the Rocky series. Rocky went toe to toe with Drago, Apollo and Tommy, but when he tried that with clubber he was ko'd in 2. Clubber would only lose to rocky and apollo. he would ko everybody else. yes drago as well.

  • @19OfficerDude Disagreed. Draco's physical strenght was insane and Rocky was able to stand up to him till the end because he has a wild heart that none of other fighter's perhaps except Apollo had. Tommy didn't have it, Lang was too arrogant and furious but I doubt his heart still, and Draco obviously lacked a proper heart depite his crazy physical power. Apollo, well, I think that he had a great heart to match Rocky's, or something close to that. That's the way I view it personally.

  • @HalflingShireFolk

    I'm saying Clubber Lang would KO any of them if they came right at him. Only Rocky and Apollo could beat him if they used their elusive skills. Drago and the others would be knocked out by Clubber. Clubber was way too powerful. Like I said Rocky had a war with Drago for 15 rounds toe to toe but the one time he went straight at Clubber he was KO'd in 2 rounds.

  • For completely fighting Clubber's fight Rocky tore him up at first but it didn't last long

  • yyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eee clubber!

  • It's incredible how B.A. Baraccus managed to have a boxing career while on the run from the law.

  • Rocky Balboa is a bum and overrated fighter :D . He's all hype. Clubber Lang is the real deal.

  • He pitied the fool

  • Rocky lost because he wasn't prepared for this fight

  • @MrDarksword123 He wasn't well prepared, he was worrying about mick and, most importantly, HE BECAME CIVILIZED lol

  • Clubber just got lucky

  • @controllerhero18 ........ press 3, does that look like luck to you? If it does than you are a mr t downplayer.

  • Nah rocky lost because he was worrying about micky and he wasnt watching him too

  • thats what happen to apollo he almost lost in rocky 1 because he thought it would be a easy match and he was really famous, rocky got too famous, got too confident and cocky, and lost to clubber lang nad didnt take trainign seriously until he put gonna fly now and trained with apollo =)

  • @TheNinjacat10 I think you're right there. Remember Mickey told him in the dressing room, pre-fight, not to stand toe to toe with him as he'd (Clubber) never gone 15 rounds before. I think Mickey strantegy for this fight was a long haul method. To wear down Clubber until he'd out-punched himself to tiredness. But as Apollo and Tony said - he'd only last 7 or 8 rounds. Rocky was basically stuffed from the word go!lol!

  • Rocky wouldn't have won the match even if Mick was in his corner. He wasn't prepared at all for Clubber Lang and didn't take him seriously.

  • All hooks, no defense, no strategy. :P.

  • "Imma smoke him Imma smoke him imma smoke him" Clubber wasnt gonna be denied that night

  • @amensupremera Its a shame Mr T didn't take up boxing for real imagine having look at him in the other corner.

  • I just realized the entire ring is dedicated to Rocky lol

  • is it just me or do Lang's punches look like slaps?

  • @Reaganguy16006 Its just you, they exterely powerfull hook shots!!!

  • @jaybirdy22 lol fuckin slaps from superman maybe

  • Clubbers punches = quick and powerfull

  • I maybe be wrong but it's just me. That Clubber Lang reminds me of Mike Tyson or George Foreman.

  • Comment removed

  • The Rocky movies are sometimes criticized for not being realistic in terms of when you compare them to real boxing matches, but that isn't entirely true. Obviously most real boxing matches are not like this but there are a few exceptions. Hagler vs Hearns, Foreman vs Ron Lyle, and Ali vs Frazier III were all real fights that approached the "Rocky" universe. Round 10 in the first Bowe vs Holyfield match is another one that gets close. Can you guys think of any others?

  • @danning1 the ward gatti fights. pryor v. aguello Chavez v. taylor. Or if you really wanna go back Dempsey . Willard

  • @danning1 ¿pacquiao vs. cotto?

  • Clubber Lang came into that ring ready for war.

    Rocky would have lost no matter what. Clubber Lang was hungry.

  • @dvharris75 Yes he was hungry obviously, and too hard and too strong for Rocky.

    But as the movie makes it so obvious in certain scenes, Mickey and Rocky'S heart were bound in a unique way. It was beyond mere friendship, it was a beloved father and son thing really, as well as friends. I think the no.1 reason that Rocky lost to Lang was because had a heart attack and so couldn't attend the match and so was unable to give Rocky personal support and tactics/strategies. That's the way I see it.

  • @dvharris75 Ivan Drago is better :p

  • @dvharris75 I agree. Rocky did not prepare well for the fight.  He was clowing around signing autographs and being kissed by women while Clubber was killing himself--alone--in his private training facility. And when Mickey had his heart attack just before the fight was the final nail in the coffin. The scene after the fight when Mickey died and Rocky cried over him was soooo sad.

  • I'd watch *real* boxing if it was like this. Absolutely awesome. I have all the Rocky movies on DVD, but I only watch III and IV :]

  • In real life, a boxer getting punched that much without defending himself would cause the ref to stop the fight!

  • 1:01 to 1:07 gives me a headache :(

  • i'm the new champion

  • Probably Drago would win..the awkward Russian was on roids after all...

  • are they allergic to blocking with there hands

  • @SalesBlaze or a jab lol

  • @ElWagonne yeh lol

  • wouaah le gorille clubber!!!

  • Mr t sounds like a monster or chimpanzine

  • Comment removed

  • COME ON BALBOA

  • drago would deff fuck up mr.t

  • @triumph8451 I disagree

  • Just watching poor Rocky take all those nasty hits gives me a massive headache. :-X

  • @vampirerazael2003 In a nutshell! ;)

  • I pitty the FOOL

  • clubber beat that ass

  • I DID IT! YEAH! - I TOLD YA! I TOLD YA I'D DO IT! YEAH! CHAMPION OF DA' WORLD! EEEYYNUH! EYNUUUH! EEYNUH!

  • @Momentum139 LOL

  • @kstaterocks54 No way. Even Rocky said that Lang was too strong. He needed to box with advance defense with Lang to win and only Apollo could teach him that.

  • I'm a smoke him, I'm a smoke him!

  • 3:25 WTF is he grunting for? That shit's too funny!

  • @vampirerazael2003 hmm I guess,

  • Damn Mr T was in good shape back then. Perfect for this role! Such a tough intimidating character.

  • love rocky and love this fight. but it always made me laugh that rocky's and clubber's teams' advice never tallied with what was going in the fight. "defence!" = rocky slugs at clubber. "fight on the inside!" = clubber slugs at rocky from the distance. bless.

    great fight, though. iconic. seared from memory into my childhood.

  • No fighters in the Rocky movies have defense they just swing away at eachother, dont get tired, never miss a punch and take over 200 punches a round and there still fine.

  • My personal favorite Rocky movie. Mr T was great in this role...his character was a perfect combination of Ali's mouth and Tyson's power.

  • i swear he gets hit once, and hes bleeding... (rocky)

  • @danthearsenalfan dont you see the weight the power of that gorila O_o

  • @manMAFBoo lol

  • this is how to beat people in the ring. clubber lang style

  • Rambo vs B. A. Baracus

  • Why didn't he use the Mohawk Grenade?

  • always liked that mean ass look Mr T had on his face just before he knocked rocky out...Gorilla Strong!

  • I love how each fighter needs is their manager to say something and they suddenly kick ass once again

  • what i want to know is why do none of Rocky's opponants ever want a re match... only Apollo Creed fought him twice, but that wasn't a re-match...

  • im mr t and im a night elf mohawk

  • OMFG, THATS NOT BOXING

  • Tommy Gun vs Mr t

  • *Note: I've heard friends of mine--unfairly, in my opinion--criticize the fact that Clubber hates Apollo. They say it doesn't make any logical sense except to give Apollo motivation in the movie to train Rocky for the second fight. I disagree, Clubber wrongly views Apollo as an Uncle Tom who has lost touch with his "street" roots. Happens all the time in real life among black athletes and black actors and so forth. Thumbs up if you agree.

  • Is it just me or does mr.t throw a more professional punch than stallone?.

  • Heavyweight boxing is calling out for a Clubber Lang right now :)

  • @vampirerazael2003 yeah but rocky still should've had a granite chin even though his heart wasn't in it, maybe should've been TKO'ed but to be knocked out in the 2nd is embarrassing for a fighter with heart like rocky.

  • I liked the part where rocky got punched

  • first time i watched rocky 3 i was a kid and the panic in rocky's voice after the 1st round made me wanna cry.

  • What happened to Rocky's granite chin?!?!?! oh and @kansaimagic he doesn't pretend to be christian his family is Italian-Catholic.

  • This is what would have realistically happened with Rocky vs Drago.

  • Rocky allowed Clubber to get into his head. Rocky got pissed off and decided to be a brawler when he would have won if he decided to focus his energy at boxing. Which iswhy he lost.

  • So the guy made a soft porn movie and beats up a black guy while pretending to be a Christian before every fight begins. Now that's entertainment! A few minor financial troubles with Planet Hollywood, but it doesn't matter cause where Sly goes people follow. R3 is the best of them all. The beginning of the show is Epic!

  • Would the Rocky that fought Apollo the second time have beaten Clubber here?

  • Rocky didn't have any will to fight at all. His mind was elsewhere

  • i guess rocky is still using the "i must block his fist with my face" technique

  • DEFENCE!

  • Mr. T Jacked him up! How brutal He's a Beast! he's a &^&^##^ Beast ~ Avgn

  • own his ass, soul brother. brother blood got no chance

  • You had to like Clubber's personality. He kind of reminds me of Tyson

  • Pitiful fool. lol

  • i dissagree i think clubber would actually beat drago.. hand speed clubber is faster same strength but clubber wins this macth up

  • @kennyg2006 but the awkward russin was into roids...

  • Rule(s) when fightin' Clubber Lang (Mr. T) NEVER STAND TOE TO TOE

  • CLAS STREET FIGHTER LIKE ROCKEY LONG ON THE WAY ROCKEY STARTED TO GET LAZY MILK HIS DICK OFTEN HE LOST POWER AND WHO HE REALLY WAS IT CAN HAPPNED TO EVERYBODY

  • Did Micky forget to teach Rocky to actually BLOCK and JAB! The actual techniques employed in this movie are jokes...

  • IM THE NEW CHAMPION OF THE WORLD! EEERHHH! EEERRHHHH! EEERRRRRRH! EERRRRRHHHHH!!

  • I would have loved a Mr T / Apollo fight

  • the boxin in the movie is actually fuckin ridiculous

  • omfg! its mr.T!

  • Mr. T's ridiculous dialogue made this movie. I wish I could find the clip on the news interview before their second match when T goes "I can't be beat, I won't be beat! This time there won't be no quick knockdowns. I'm gonna torture him, I'm gonna crucify him...REALLY BAD!!"

  • MR t is da man

  • Mr. T vs Drago would be a great fight to watch!

  • @Jaysin31 Yeah, though I think Drago had the advantage in reach, power and ROIDS

  • @Jaysin31 Drago wins easily, he's the harder puncher and has the longer reach. At best maybe Clubber wins one round.

  • @danning1 Yes, of course, theoretically. And if you wanna take that platform, Clubber has a longer reach than Rocky and hits so much harder. But this is a movie, Danning, and those elements never factored into who won the fights.

  • @Jaysin31 Rocky's not allowed to lose, though. Sylvester Stallone makes the movies!

    Just kidding, man. But really, though, if any of it were real then Drago would beat Clubber. Matter of fact, he would have beaten any of them (Rocky, Apollo in his prime, Clubber, Morrison, and Mason Dixon). For one thing, he cheated, he used steroids.

  • @danning1 ok ok....Then how about Drago vs Adrian & Pauly in a Canadian's double death match?

  • @Jaysin31 On a more serious note: Doesn't the second fight in "Rocky 3," though, show that Clubber is a one-dimensional fighter, and that's his big weakness? He hits really hard and all that but he's not that great a boxer or strategist. So even in a real-life situation he could lose to a weaker fighter based on that. Before George Foreman matured and got smart in his later years that's how he lost to Ali in 1974. Food for thought anyway, bro. Peace.

  • @danning1 How bout Tyson? Tyson was Champion in Rokcy world because he was yelling at Dixon in Rocky 6 while being acknowledge as such. Imagine prime Tyson vs Drago in Rocky world? LOL.

  • @Jaysin31 hell yea

  • @Jaysin31 ivan would kick his ass! clubber has alot of strength but he's not too good with endurance. i think he'd break sooner than Ivan

  • @Jaysin31 Drago would steamroll over Mr.T

  • @Jaysin31 Yea hahah i always wanted that, but drago would smack him.

  • @Jaysin31 Drago is stronger

  • @Jaysin31 Drago would dominate.

  • Apollo is just pissed and wants Rocky to win because Clubber was so rude to him in the pre-fight ceremony.

  • I love Rocky but seriously, these were some of the most unrealistic fights ever.

  • @ArkChainer yeah that's why I can't stand watching the fights lol... I mean he goes through a whole fight without holding his hands up.

  • @ArkChainer

    Nah, there are many other movies where the fights is more unrealistic... look at the chineese ninja movies... they fight in the air!

  • rocky blocks with his face

  • Fast count!!!!

  • darkest moment in Rocky history .... 2:54

  • now we no were fight night gets its ko's from

  • Rapidly click 2 to see Clubber get hit in the balls

  • it didnt look like rocky tried

  • At 0:34 Paulie screams "Defense". Why didn't Rocky ever think of that :D? lol Rocky fights are amusing and well done however not realistic :).

  • 1:31 I'm a smuggler! I'm a smuggler!

  • @zombieeddie imma smoke him*
