2 Drago- awesome as well.
3 Clubber Lang- it's fucking mr t
4 Mason Dixon, i really like the movie but not him so much.
5 tommy gunn-yeah.

Re: Ranking the Rocky Opponents
Drago - Guy's a killer. He truly is terrifying, even now Lundren is scary. He's the only Rocky actor still in that type of shape.
Apollo - He's the man. He beat Rocky, passed the torch and then set up Drago as the biggest monster in sports. It was great long term style storytelling.
Lang - Mr T being a badass. Imagine Tyson with mic skills.
Dixon - To me he was just there.
Gunn - The fight was alright, but it just wasn't Rocky.
Here's a couple questions. Who beats who in their prime?
Creed vs Drago? I ask because Apollo may have lacked Rocky's power but he had speed and foot work. Would he have stood a chance or not?

Re: Ranking the Rocky Opponents
Tyson did have mic skills.
And Drago still beats Creed even in Apollo's prime. The man is just a monster. 2000 psi punch.

Sans roids Drago might be on the level of Clubber Lang or less.

Old Apollo was beyond his physical prime, so there'd be a good chance he would put up a fight in his younger days. |

Which is just pathetic in itself. I wish they made that a little bit MORE realistic. I mean if he landed one punch straight at Rockys face (which he did numerous times), he'd of killed him. It's my one major gripe with IV |

Not everyone is basing it on wins. Some are just on the character and entertainment, as several of us stated already. |
