Ivan Drago vs Apollo from Rocky II

Started by Robtard24 pages

Creed's like a fine wine though

He is a pretty handsome fellow eh Robbie ?

Drago obviously wins.

Apollo is simply too weak to harm Drago. He can't run forever.

Furthermore, Drago obviously held back against Apollo. If he didn't, he wouldn't have just killed Apollo. He would have spilled his brains all over the ring.

This is a slaughter.

If you had 1-3 spelling errors and/or out of place words, that would have been a good impersonation

LOL HAHA

This is how I see the fight. It would be much like the Ali and foreman fight. Apollo would start of dancing but would start to tire since he is facing a foe with good defense and who is talk and has a longer reach then him (just like Foreman and Ali).

At some point Apollo who is the older fighter is going to have to let Drago get near him so Drago can start punching and tiring himself out. The question is whether Apollo can physically take the punishment that Drago would dish out so that Drago would tire out.

I believe he can since his character is suppose to represent Ali who was quite durable.

Apollo has gone 15 rounds twice with Rocky

His record speaks for itself:

Total fights: 50
Wins: 48
Wins by KO: 47
Losses: 2
Draws: 0

I'm sure we can all agree that Thunderlips would own all of them tho right?

At the same time

Only one loss though big Rob, The drago fight was an exhibition 😉

Not sure it's counting the Drago loss as a loss/actual fight

edit: Seems there were, Creed was 46-0-0 in Rocky, so an even more impressive record for Creed

Apollo beat the breaks off of prime rocko. He'd school Drago.

Obviously untrue. Apollo's very ability to harm Rocky, who had transcended human physical capabilities in Rocky IV to fight Drago, proves Rocky was not in his prime.

Drago kills Apollo with one punch.

Lol. Nope. Rocky IV is not his prime.

Sorry, but the movie disagrees with you.

By my calculations Rocky would have to be over an order of magnitude stronger and more durable to have fought Drago, who has superhuman strength and endurance. It is likely that he could also kill prime Apollo with a single strike.

Nemebro's maths are difficult to refute though

Nemebro can't even add.

I have transcended the need for addition.

I have to ask, are you serious?
