I think this would be one fvck of a fight that Apollo would win. thoughts?

Care to elaborate?

Apollo from Rocky 2 versus Clubber Lang in Rocky 3.........

Clubber Lang imo. IIRC, Apollo was just suppsoed to be really good, whereas Clubber Lang was like a freakin' beast.

bullshit....Apollo should have never lost to Rocky, Rocky was lucky. Apollo had speed AND power, and would have tore Clubber a new one.

Like he tore the Russian new one...

Apollo was older and didnt train, man. if Apollo had trained hard for the Drago fight, he'd have won.

Possibly.

I myself haven't seen a Rocky movie in at least five years.. so my stance on the matter is hardly concrete.

It was obvious Apollo was slower and less powerful in Rocky 4.

It's obvious that you're a feckass! Yeah, took your word.

you see Rocky 2?

Don't remember.

Which assclown did he beat in that one?

he "lost" to Rocky. Rocky lucked out. the fight should have been stopped half a dozen times.

Apollo from the 2nd rocky would probably whip Clubber

yup....he had Clubbers power, and phenomonal speed.

exactly there is no way clubber would ever land a punch.

Indeed. Apollo owns Clubber in 6 rounds, if that long.

Yup just ashame that Drago fought him when he was past his prime, now that would have been a good fight.(Apollo at peak condition)

Apollo, in his prime, was the best fighter of the series. He should have beat Rocky, he would have pwned Clubber, and I am betting he would have decisioned Drago.

If it's Apollo in his prime, 4 round ko.

Remember, Apollo trained Rocky in how to beat Clubber.

it always pissed me off how Rocky beat Apollo....pure luck.

Shit, I rooted for Apollo in both fights.

I hated Rocky 4 for killing off Apollo.

I agree as well.You got to remember that each time Creed and Rocky faught each other,the one who won, just barely beat the other both times.They took each other down to the wire,so that being the case,I gotta go with Creed as well.

come one now lets not bring that crapfest rocky 4 into the picture.even with all that training in the world neither appollo or rocky could have beaten him.it would take someone like spiderman or Ironman to beat that guy,he was a superhuman.Evander Holyfield himself confirmed what I knew for years that no human being could have taken that kind of punishment from Drago that Rocky took and have lived through it.Rocky would have died immediately as well like Creed did.watch Rocky 3 again sometime,watch the part where Creeds trainer says when watching the first fight between rocky and Clubber,where he says to Creed-we got to put him away early,i figure with Clubbers strength and punch he has,Rocky can last about 4 or 5 rounds with him,6 at the most.we got to put him away early.Which Rocky did.Remember he knew rocky couldnt last more than 6 rounds or so with Lang,no possible way in hell would either have them lasted more than that long with Drago either.so lets not bring that crapfest Rocky 4 into the picture here.Lets just stick with the first 3 films since its about Lang Vs Creed.

lets talk about punishment, shall we? Rocky should never have survived the fight from Rocky 2, the amount of punishment Apollo gave him was unreal.

It wasnt coming from a superhuman though that hit 10 times harder than an average man.for that reason,I can buy into him surviving and lasting as long as he did in the ring against Appollo.Theres no comparison.

Drago would have to CATCH Apollo first. Apollo wasnt near as fast or powerful in 4 as he was in 1 and 2, and Rocky was considerably slower in 4 than he was in 3.

all the more reason why that movie is so horrible and stallone should be shot for making that film and why it shouldnt even be discussed on this thread.He was slower,older,and he obviously wasnt capable of lasting more than 6 rounds at the most with Clubber, yet were suppose to somehow believe that he could last "15" rounds with Drago who hit MUCH harder than Lang? what drugs was stallone on when making that movie?

Rocky was a totally different fighter by then, man.

the one other thing i want to say not only is is totally moronic for anyone to believe that rocky could have lasted 15 rounds in the ring with Drago when he was totally incapable of lasting more than 5 or 6 rounds with Lang in the ring especially since he had been in retirement for so long,Rocky for sure would have been killed in real life because during filming,Lungren accidently punched stallone in the shoulder and his shoulder was dislocated for several weeks after that.Stallone is obviously not a professional fighter but he had the build and body of one so if he couldnt even take a hit from Lungren who in REAL LIFE ISNT a superhuman unlike his character was who hit 10 times harder than an average man,thats just ignorant for anyone to think Rocky wouldnt have died early on as well in real life.plus again evander holyfied said the same thing that he would never have lived through that fight.

All THAT being said,I agree based on what happened in the movies.If MOVIE Rocky was able to last 15 rounds at an older age and stay alive in the ring with Drago,then in his prime,if Creed had fought Drago during the times he fought Rocky,he would have easily have been able to beat Drago.That being said,Creed would wipe the floor with Clubber Lang easily also.like you said,he taught rocky how to beat him.

so Creed would easily have beat Lang.

It was in the script? haermm
