Although the fights in Rocky and Creed movies are a great piece of entertainment, the outcomes are usually only driven by the plot needs.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Both the Rocky and Creed franchises showcase memorable fight moments; however, not all of them accurately reflect who the best fighter is and the result was more a matter of plot armor than skill. Frequently, movies tend to put the story’s interest over what’s more realistic or plausible within its universe. The main character will be often put into extreme situations that will raise doubt about his survival.
Although Balboas’s strategy of working on his right side to surprise Apollo may seem enough to end up winning, Rocky II's outcome is not realistic. Keeping in mind that Rocky walks into the fight with a huge risk of losing vision, it is highly unlikely that he can take all those punches to the face from the heavyweight champion and still be fine.
3 Rocky Balboa vs Ivan Drago - Rocky IV Rocky IV’s final fight against Ivan Drago is one of the most epic and remembered moments of the entire franchise. However, that fight is also one of the least realistic. At the beginning of the film, Ivan Drago faces Apollo Creed during an exhibition fight. During this fight, Drago kills Apollo in no less than two rounds. He’s portrayed as a sort of killing machine and an impossible-to-beat villain.
