Female Reporter: Has the fight date been set yet? Rocky: December 25th. Male Reporter #4: Champ, how much are you making for this fight? Rocky: No money. It's physically impossible for this little man to win. This other man has not the size, or the endurance, or the genetics to win. Isn't it, gentlemen? Drago is the most perfectly trained athlete ever. Nicoli Koloff: It's a matter of size and.evolution. Male Reporter #3: Considering Rocky's punching power, do you still expect an easy fight? Rimsky: Yes, of course. Male Reporter #2: Doesn't the title matter? Rocky: Not until this is over. Male Reporter #1: Is this the first time the champion has given up his crown? Rocky: I don't know about that. Female Reporter: Rocky, is the decision final? Rocky: Yes. Apollo: I'm here to fight, promise me you're not gonna stop this fight. Rocky: Look, champ, you can't do no more out there! Apollo: I'm here to fight. This fight's finished! I gotta call it! Apollo Creed: No, no. He's a man! You want it more than he does! No pain! Take it to him!ĭialogue Rocky: Champ, look, I gotta stop it. You cut him! You hurt him! You see? You see? He's not a machine.

He is not human, he is a piece of iron.

And without some challenge, without some damn war to fight, then the warrior might as well be dead, Stallion! Now I'm asking you - as a friend - stand by my side this one last time. We have to be in the middle of the action 'cause we're the warriors. See, we're born with this killer instinct that you can't just turn off and on like some radio.

You and me, we don't even have a choice.

I guess what I'm trying to say, is that if I can change, and you can change, everybody can change! In here, there were two guys killing each other, but I guess that's better than 20 million. During this fight, I've seen a lot of changing, the way you felt about me, and in the way I felt about you. I seen a lot of people hate me and I didn't know what to feel about that so I guess I didn't like you much neither. I came here tonight, I didn't know what to expect.And I didn't understand that, but now I understand. You always did everything the way you wanted it.

I guess what matters is what he stood for, what he lived for, and what he died for. There's a lot I could say about this man, but I don't know if it matters now.
