Real boxing

I have to say that although the first four movies have different techniques, they are always exciting when they really go to boxing. From the first failure to challenge the boxing champion, to the second hardship and success, from the comeback after the failure, to the life-and-death contest with the Soviet boxer, Rocky has been going forward courageously. And this time the fight was not in boxing, but in the streets. The opponent is not a stranger, just a guy who competes in boxing. It was Rocky’s disciple Tommy who tried to surpass the prestige of his master and challenged his master. When he came to trouble Rocky aggressively, Rocky also ignored him. In his opinion, it was just a farce caused by the vanity and innocence of this apprentice.
Without the few teeth that Poly had been knocked out, Rocky wouldn't necessarily have to fight Tommy. Tommy hurt his family, so Rocky wants to teach this arrogant apprentice. (Poly’s character has always given people the feeling that he is lazy, having sex and being clever. In fact, he will only rely on Rocky’s influence to do something for profit, and it will also cause Rocky’s family to fall. Throughout the whole series except Rocky’s opponents In addition, the most unfamiliar to me are pig teammates like Poly. The old coach can train Rocky with a paranoid voice. Rocky’s wife always accompanies Rocky and gives him confidence and encouragement, even if he is dead. The comfort of Rocky’s soul. And the old boxing champion Apollo pulled Rocky when Rocky was defeated and has always believed in knocking Rocky down. As for Pauly, he can’t do anything and drag him back)
on the street. In the fight, Rocky does not have to abide by the rules of boxing, and acts like layoffs and wrestling are not restricted. Rocky teaches Tommy boxing, so he knows the pros and cons of his apprentice very well. Tommy is used to fighting in boxing, so he is naturally not suitable for boxing that is almost irregular. Therefore, it is not an ideal ending for Rocky to defeat his apprentice (Who makes Rocky the undead Xiaoqiang?)

    The fifth part is still a low point in the whole series. This time, it tells the story of a Rocky teaching a man to a boy who knows nothing. That kid named Tommy reminds me of an important figure in the boxing world in the 1990s, also named Tommy. His appearance and name are similar, and he also won the boxing championship belt. That heavy punch has suffered a lot of people. He was ruined by his indiscreet life, died of HIV in 2013, and he didn't admit it until his death. After reading the credits, I found out that the real Tommy was also playing Rocky's apprentice in the play, and Stallone's beloved son also died in 2012. It's very similar to the movie where the closest relatives leave the Rocky one by one. It really fits with that line from Rocky's last episode: No one can hit harder than life, but it's not about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep going. Stallone played Rocky, and even more of himself, constantly fighting against life and continuing to move forward.

Rocky V quotes

  • Paulie: He says he wants to fight. I told him to get married.

    Rocky Balboa: Why?

    Paulie: That's gym humor, Rocko.

  • Rocky Balboa: You see, fear is a fighter's best friend. You know, but it ain't nothing to be ashamed of. See, fear keeps you sharp, it keeps you awake, you know, it makes you want to survive. You know what I mean? But the thing is, you gotta learn how to control it. All right? 'Cause fear is like this fire, all right? And it's burning deep inside. Now, if you control it, Tommy, it's gonna make you hot. But, you see, if this thing here, it controls you, it's gonna burn you and everything else around you up. That's right, you know?
