Yet Rocky still KOed him

Apollo, easily. At peak physical performance it took, Rocky two attempts to beat Creed and he almost didn't even win the second time around. Mr T beat, Rocky but after during the rematch when Rocky was focused and physically fit he embarrassed him. As for, Drago...,to me, he seemed to have more trouble with, Apollo, considering that he actually lost.

Yeah.... but Rocky was not at his prime then. His first fight wth Apollo was his first fight out of the little clubs.

And this maeks Drago a more likely candidate for toughest opponent.

I change my vote. Lang. Rocky had to literally retrain to beat him.

Let's be fair though... All his training did in Rocky III was make him gay. YouTube video

Yeah I questioned why Rocky and Apollo jumped in the ocean in really short shorts and start hugging each other and jumping around...

-Pr- Hey Yo!

it's called male bonding, duh. 😛

if you mean toughest by toughest to beat, i'd say apollo. rocky had enough hate and anger against drago that it carried him through i think.

the toughest actual guy though? drago.

I'm not into that kind of male bonding ha-son

Rocky won it for his wife in Rocky II, her telling him to win pushed him to train harder and work harder to win...he didn't wanna dissapoint her...kinda wonder what woulda happened if he'd lost

yea I say i. drago. he caused rocko's brain damage. and that was after he killed his best friend. plus the dude was a physical monster. he had clear and easy height and reach advantages over rock. and he was on 'roids.

"....I must break you." lol I loved that. that one and "I am champion. I cannot be defeated. if he dies, he dies..." followed by the cold stare at rock. it's the best rocky movie imo.

Lang was his toughest in my opinion.

Well Rocky didn't have brain damage he had a bad concussion hence why he was able to fight again in Rocky Balboa...but yeah

😬 I'm suprised at the number of votes Apollo is getting,I think people need to remember that Rocky was only a chump when he first fought Apollo,If he fought Apollo in Rocky 3 or 4 I think Rocky would of kicked his ass easily

I agree, I kind of feel people are just going for Creed because he was in the first and second film.

I'm going for Creed because he managed to take Rocko to the limit without roids

That isn't a valid reason.

Yes it is

If we're comparing them all together as fighters, Drago's the best. However, if we mean at-the-moment, it's too hard to tell. All I know is that Dixon and Gunn aren't even close.

Of coruse it's not... The fact that Drago was on steroids just increases his toughness.

The thread isn't "Which of Rocky's opponents is the toughest while fighting fairly".

His wife. He'd beat any fighter out there.
