Rocky (1976) Edit

A 50 to 1 underdog living a Cinderella story,

A champion in and out of the ring,

A couple cupcakes. Huh? No?

A few bucks? Well, here. Put this in your glove.

A gala occurrence with me beating Green like he committed a crime.

A hard left and a right combination.

A left, a right, another left, another right, combination!

A little colder in the suburbs, and tomorrow, with a little bit of luck,

A lot of canaries flying around the docks.

A lot of noise coming from the back. You could go deaf with that noise.

A manager. Listen to me.

A pig gives you the best?

A shot at the greatest title in the world on this country's biggest birthday.

A smart left. Another left and a right.

A snow white underdog,

A tremendous right hand by Rocky.

A very happy New Year.

About this shot that you got at the title,

About what?

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

Absolutely. You got it.

Absolutely. You should've seen me.

Adrian ain't sharp. Adrian is a loser.

Adrian, come on. You're lettin' the heat out.

Adrian, I ain't mad, it's just that, uh,

Adrian, I want you to go downstairs and clean all the cat cages.

Adrian!

Adrian!

Adrian!

Adrian! Hey, where's your hat?

After a while, people get the combination.

After the fight, I may just retire and run for emperor.

Ah, Rocky Marciano.

Ain't gonna be no rematch. Ain't gonna be no rematch.

Ain't nothin' to talk about. She's in a bad mood, I'm in a bad mood.

All I can say is I'm a good promoter.

All I wanted to do at a fight was prove I was no bum...

All of you!

All right, anyway, what I come to tell you is that, uh...

All right, fellas, fellas. That's enough pictures.

All right, I got it. Del Rio... how do you spell Del Rio?

All right, nine bucks, you got a deal.

All right, Rocky.

All right. All right.

Am I talkin' too loud?

American history proves that everybody's got a chance to win.

And a grand from Cappoli, right?

And a lot of other people in this country are just as sentimental,

And a southpaw throws your timing off, you see.

And Apollo clearly protecting his right side... his ribs.

And besides, you ain't supposed to be in here.

And he called the reporters?

And he punched so many holes in my face.

And he's captured people's imaginations all over the world.

And he's gonna prove it to the whole world

And his arm was facing towards New Jersey, you see, and that's south.

And his arm... he was left handed,

And his record... 44 victories.

And I bought the, uh, bought the animals themselves, some food,

And I don't raise you to go with this scum bum!

And I just wanna say I'm very available, you know.

And I mean in a flash, Jergens.

And I'll tell you why.

And I'm gonna put his face on this poster with me.

And I've broken my ass over this one.

And ice skating's probably the best thing, know what I mean?

And if I can go that distance...

And if I can go that distance...

And if she don't watch out, she's gonna end up dying alone.

And in keeping with great events throughout the country's history.

And instead of that,

And it was the same night that Firpo knocks Dempsey outta the ring.

And make sure we get a picture of it for all the newspapers.

And maybe you end up becoming a whore, you understand?

And none of them's got a prayer of whippin' me.

And now coming into the corner again.

And now... for the main event.

And on my right,

And send the mayor's wife 200 roses from me,

And since I become a challenger, the owner don't mind that I come in.

And someone standing by with a towel, or runnin' errands. You know.

And that unknown is you.

And that's the way it's gonna be.

And the gross rental of the arena is gonna include the 400 ushers, right?

And the referee's... they're ready to keep going. Look at that!

And there's nothing they'd like better than to see Apollo Creed

And there's the bell for round one.

And they all say the same thing...

And they cough, and I gotta smack 'em on the back of the shell.

And what do you think they get, huh? And they get what?

And you come around here. You wanna move in here with me?!

And you made me feel like a loser!

And you put my stuff in a bag on skid row?

And you wanna be ringside to see it? Do ya?

And you're gonna crap thunder.

And, uh, last turtle food I got here.

And, uh... well.

Another left.

Any comment?

Anyway, he put this vegetation on my ear.

Anyway, I'll tell ya what I looked like when I was, uh, in my prime.

Anyway, look... I'm here to warn ya that you gotta be very careful

Anyway, this girl with the dirty mouth... she wasn't bad lookin',

Anyway, you know, when I started this racket,

Apollo Creed does.

Apollo Creed says he'll be shopping for another victim

Apollo Creed will duplicate the cracking of the liberty bell

Apollo Creed.

Apollo Creed... for you around the world

Apollo dancing around with his arms in the air.

Apollo unloading a left, really trying to get him up against the ropes.

Apollo, how do you like the city of brotherly love?

Apollo, I like it.

Apollo?

Apollo's already done a million dollars worth of publicity,

Apollo's seen you fight.

Are you gonna say anything to him?

Are you screwin' my sister?

Aren't you skating?

At Horn and Hardog's about three years ago.

At least you had a prime!

At the fabulous Spectrum. Harry?

Attaboy.

Balboa trying to fight back.

Balboa, you get winner's share.

Be a doctor, be a lawyer, carry a leather briefcase.

Beautiful people in a beautiful city

Because Dipper needed it. Dipper's a contender.

Because I'm sentimental.

Because it's bad for my reputation, you understand?

Because you got a big mouth, you know. You just talk too much.

Because, I don't know, like the Bible says...

Beethoven was deaf. Helen Keller was blind.

Bicentennial fight with Mac Lee Green here in Philadelphia

Big Baby's about the size of an airplane. I broke both my hands on his face.

Bong. It works. It ain't your fault.

Both of you get out of my house.

Buddy's in a bad mood. It's his prostate.

But after a while, you get a reputation, that's it.

But first, Rocky, how did you come to train in an icebox?

But he don't know nothin' about fightin'.

But he just can't do it.

But I don't know what the hell else to do!

But I never had no management. You know...

But I never had...

But I wanna kiss you.

But I would like to present one of the immortals of pugilism,

But I'll tell ya somethin'.

But I'll tell you, I can really swat, you know what I mean? I can really hit hard.

But I'm a southpaw, and nobody wants to fight no southpaw, know what mean?

But it don't bother me none.

But it don't matter either, you know?

But it was Thanksgiving.

But it's 28, it's awfully chilly.

But me, I got a business going. I don't have to take no shots.

But now I got all this knowledge. I got it up here.

But thank you very much, you know.

But they go. "Go on, fight the champ."

But you can't buy what I'm gonna give you.

But you... you get a shot at the title.

But, Rocky, how do you expect to fight Apollo Creed?

But, you see, none of the guys ever took her seriously, see.

By cracking Mac Lee Green.

By giving an unknown a shot at the title.

By the way... I've got a couple of friends up in Toronto

Called the hospital? She calls the hospital if I'm ten minutes late.

Can I ask you a question?

Can you imagine that?

Champ, Apollo, why did you agree to fight a man

Cold beer here. Get your beer.

Cold in here?! It is cold in here!

Come on in and meet the family. The owner ever come back?

Come on in! It's a nice house!

Come on, Gazzo's a good man. You know that.

Come on, help me out. I'm standin' here!

Come on, let's get out of this stink, would you? Come on.

Come on, let's go!

Come on, now.

Come on, Rocky. I'm just 12.

Come on!

Come on! Wanna hit on me? Come on!

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on. Come on.

Come on. It's Thanksgiving.

Come on. You having a good time?

Come on. You're doin' fine.

Come on. You're puttin' me on, right?

Come on... hit him! Hit him!

Comes to $17.20

Comes to $40.55

Comin' up to me on the street wishing me the best.

Could be the challengers getting ready to get into the ring.

Creed got knocked down at the end of the first.

Creed in three.

Creed is down! What a surprise this is!

Damn.

Diana Lewis, in the meat house with southpaw Rocky Balboa.

Did I give you a job this morning or I didn't, huh?

Did she say that?

Didn't you guys ever hear of Valley Forge or Bunker Hill?

Different job. What kind of turkey? Big turkey or small turkey?

Do me a favor?

Do me a favor. His lungs... punch 'em out.

Do me another favor?

Do you have a phone?

Do you wanna run the 15 radio spots in the Midwest?

Does my house stink?

Doesn't matter. Who cares.

Don't any of you guys get up.

Don't be mad at him. He's just trying to help.

Don't bother you. A big turkey, right? Huh?

Don't fall! Don't fall!

Don't get mental, man, you know.

Don't get wise with me, now, huh?

Don't go, please. Don't go. Don't go. Don't go.

Don't go.

Don't play games with my client.

Don't say that.

Don't slum around me!

Don't want one.

Don't you think you oughta take a rest?

Down! Down! Stay down!

Eh, oh.

Einstein flunked out of school twice.

Ernie's fighting in France that same week.

Every day, every night I pass by

Every morning I pass by the place, I tell a joke. Nothing.

Every night I pass by the place, I tell a joke.

Every other block, there's a creep.

Everybody in the Delaware Valley should be up. Do you agree with me?

Exactly what are you looking for, Apollo?

Ey! Ey. The bum from the dark.

Fine.

Fine.

Fine.

Finish this bum and let's go home.

First day you was there, I came in and bought both these animals, huh?

Fly

Flying high now

For ten bucks, you gotta tear somebody's throat out.

For the viewing audience at home.

Forget about sports as a profession.

Fouls.

Freak luck is a strange thing.

From here on in, do what I tell you to do

From here on in, just let me do the figurin', you know?

Gazzo don't have to know! He won't be wise to nothin'!

Gazzo won't be wise to nothin'. Keep the coat!

Gazzo's gotta come... forget Gazzo. It's a bad job, you know what I mean?

George, I like your friends.

Get a job, you bum!

Get him!

Get me out of this stinkin' freezer.

Get my face kicked in.

Get outta my house.

Get your hands up there. Keep your hands up. That's right.

Getting strong now

Gimme a kiss, Butkus.

Give a local Philadelphia boy

Give her the blades.

Give him room!

Give me some money.

Give me some money. Come on.

Gives a local underdog fighter an opportunity.

Go ahead. Tell her somethin' funny.

Go and take a shower, will ya?

Go for it! Go for it, Rock!

Go for the ribs. Don't let that bastard breathe.

Go in the alley and eat the bird.

Go on, cut me. Cut me.

Go out and enjoy your freakin' life!

Go out! Live! Enjoy life!

God, I've seen it all. All of it.

Gonna fly

Good evening.

Good going, champ!

Good luck.

Good luck.

Good night to catch pneumonia, you know?

Good night, Marie. Take care, you know?

Good night, Rocky.

Good night.

Guy comes up, offers me a fight. Big deal.

Has made contractual obligations with 20 different organizations...

Has suffered a severely cracked third metacarpal in his left hand.

Have you seen what that was? Shamrock Meats, Inc.

He busted my head up. You see that scar?

He came back strong at the end of the first, but he's working hard.

He doesn't know it's a damn show. He thinks it's a damn fight.

He gets laid off, right? Then he can't make...

He goes to the body like nobody you've ever seen.

He is being barraged with lefts and rights to the head, to the body.

He likes you. He wants to fight you.

He looks like a big flag.

He needs to stop, Bill.

He only had 130, but I think he's good for the rest next week, Mr. Gazzo.

He picked you, Rocky.

He put a nail right there.

He really wants it.

He says he wants him!

He says to me, "You weren't born with much of a brain,

He took his best shot and became champ. Huh?

He was fightin' in the... I think it was around Philadelphia...

He was lookin' for you, Jack. Get on up there and see him.

He's a bum.

He's a climber. You know what you are?

He's a friend, and now he's taking you out.

He's a southpaw.

He's coming off the floor now, and he's trying...

He's dancing around.

He's just going over and being calm, it looks like from here.

He's just trying to make this man make him... see! Make him miss like that.

He's late three weeks and I don't like it.

He's not going to be embarrassed!

He's sitting down now.

He's taunting Rocky. "Come on, let's go."

He's very clearly outdoing the challenger right now.

Heavyweight champion of the world Apollo Creed

Hello, kid. I seen your light. Can I come in?

Here he is, the next heavyweight champ, Rocky Balboa!

Here you go.

Here you go.

Here you go. Say hi.

Here. Take the coat. Take the coat!

Here's the idea...

Hey there, Lefty.

Hey, Adrian, I'm serious now.

Hey, bird, you wanna fly me home?

Hey, Bob. Hey, hey. You're still $70 light.

Hey, Bobby Judd. He's a good boy.

Hey, Butkus! Hey, Butkus! Come here, kid! Come here!

Hey, Champ...

Hey, come on. Hey, I got some animals.

Hey, come on. No foolin' around, all right?

Hey, crime don't pay... you know that, Gloria. You know that.

Hey, did you kill all these things?

Hey, don't get excited. I know that.

Hey, ey.

Hey, gimme a kiss.

Hey, how do you spell Del Rio?

Hey, how you doin', killer? How's the turtle food this week?

Hey, how'd you know her name?

Hey, how's my buddy doin' today? Yo, Butkus!

Hey, I ain't cryin' about it, 'cause I still fight. I kinda do it like a hobby.

Hey, I ain't emotionally involved, Bob, you understand?

Hey, I don't need see no crowd around you, neither.

Hey, I want you outta here instamatically!

Hey, I won't let that happen no more... about the thumb.

Hey, if you get a bad rap, you understand?

Hey, it ain't just Green!

Hey, it's a nice place here.

Hey, kid. You ever think about retiring?

Hey, listen, are you closed to the general public,

Hey, Paulie, what, did you lock the door?

Hey, Rock, heard you did real good last night.

Hey, Rock, It's okay I talk to ya?

Hey, Rocky, how 'bout a bottle?

Hey, Rocky, what's with the eye?

Hey, Rocky, who'd you fight?

Hey, Rocky, you're not happy with your life, it's nice.

Hey, thanks for the money, Tony, you know.

Hey, that don't matter that you're 12. It don't matter.

Hey, these guys teach you to talk like that?

Hey, we'll make some money real soon, huh?

Hey, what are you doing with that bat, huh?

Hey, what the hell is that?

Hey, yo, Mike,

Hey, yo, Paulie,

Hey, yo, Paulie, who cared about me yesterday, huh? Nobody.

Hey, you can make money off my name, make it, okay?

Hey, you don't talk dirty about your sister.

Hey, you got a boyfriend?

Hey, you got somethin' for me?

Hey, you gotta be a moron.

Hey, you lookin' to do a good deed? Keep out of my freakin' life!

Hey, you wanna come inside?

Hey, you. Where you goin'?

Hey, you're breakin' the ribs.

Hey, your old man did pretty good tonight.

Hey, your sister... you sure your sister knows I'm comin'?

Hey!

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hi, Butkus. Hi, kid.

Hi, there. Rocky Balboa.

Hmm?

Hold your hands up!

Hot in here, you know?

How 'bout Big Chuck Smith?

How 'bout maybe you and I maybe go out together, get something to eat.

How are you? George Jergens.

How come you didn't break this guy's thumb like I told you?

How do you think?

How much is being channeled into West Coast closed circuit advertising?

How you doin'?

How you doin'? You seen Paulie?

How you feelin' this morning, huh? Full of life?

How you gettin' along together?

How'd you know?

How'd you like hearing your name on TV tonight?

How're you doin', Moby Dick? You missed me today or what? Huh?

How're you feelin' today?

How's your weight?

Huh, what's the matter? You don't like my house?

Huh?

Huh?

Huh?

Huh? Do you wanna see me get my face kicked in?!

I ain't doin' fine. I look like an idiot.

I ain't got nobody to spend Thanksgiving with, you know?

I ain't teasin' ya.

I always knew you was pretty.

I appreciate it and all that.

I been in that locker for six years

I came and I bought this bowl

I can't beat him.

I can't do it.

I can't haul meat no more!

I can't see nothin'. You gotta open my eye.

I contacted Ernie Roman's manager.

I cook for you, I clean for you, I pick up your dirty clothes!

I could go for some music.

I didn't have no favors from you!

I didn't have no prime. I didn't have nothin'!

I dig your locker, man.

I dig your locker.

I do.

I don't belong here.

I don't feel comfortable.

I don't know about that.

I don't know what happens to me.

I don't know what to say,

I don't know what to say.

I don't know.

I don't know. It fills gaps, I guess.

I don't know. Maybe laugh a little bit. Who knows, you know?

I don't know. Things probably worked out for the best, don't you think?

I don't know. Would you like to maybe, you know, you and me go out together?

I don't need a doctor. I need a different job.

I don't understand why anybody would wanna be a fighter.

I don't want nothin' from you.

I don't want nothin' from you.

I don't want you messin' her,

I don't want you messing around with southpaws.

I don't... know you well enough.

I feel like a jerk.

I feel like callin' a taxi to take me from the bed into the bathroom.

I feel very mischievous. Very weird. Very...

I fight in clubs, you know. I'm really a ham and egger.

I figured some angle to make some money off your name.

I figured... look, I figured if I break the guy's thumb,

I get a hold of every worthwhile contender

I got 34 stitches over this eye.

I got a few dollars.

I got it.

I got some things in there. If you like soda, some donuts or something.

I got that clip in here. That was a good fight.

I got the pretzels! Hey! We ain't got any beer?

I got these rare... very rare animals inside. Come on. Come on in.

I got... I got another surprise for you.

I gotta go. If I'm ten minutes late, she calls the hospital.

I guess I'll have to do the best I can.

I had it pulled 'cause of people calling all the time, and, uh,

I had nothin', man.

I had that locker for about six years, but it don't bother me none.

I had the spit shootin' out of my cheeks.

I had to get rid of that mountain, though, 'cause they kept falling over and flipping.

I have done it all.

I just dislocated my finger.

I just... wanna kiss you.

I know all about these things.

I know because I've been in this racket for 50 years.

I know I... I'm 76 years old.

I know you ain't too happy at this moment, you know,

I lost that fight, but that's a nice picture, don't you think? See how it works there?

I love my Philadelphia brothers, and I'm proud to be an American.

I love you.

I love you.

I mean, at three minutes past 4:00, what else are you gonna do?

I mean, I've got pain and I've got experience.

I mean, this isn't an everyday thing.

I mean, what do I say to a door... hey, listen...

I mean, where are the real fighters gonna come from?

I mean, who am I kiddin'? I ain't even in the guy's league.

I must've had 20 bucks taken out of there in the past six years.

I needed your help about ten years ago, right? Ten years ago?

I never had no management... that's the trouble!

I originally done it... look, push the button.

I put you two together! And you... don't you forget it!

I run a business here, not a goddamn soup kitchen.

I say you're very shy by nature, you know?

I say, if you wanted help, why didn't you ask?

I should go.

I should've broke your thumbs!

I sold 'em to you.

I suppose.

I suppose.

I take care of you, Paulie! I don't owe you nothin'!

I tell ya, I need someone to snuggle with, 28 degrees. It's cold out there.

I tell you what the trouble is... I'm a southpaw.

I tell you, there's no way we expected this kind of hitting from him.

I think he might be worried.

I think I got some chocolate in there.

I think Rocky's got a good chance.

I think you could spend your money better in Canadian publicity.

I thought you were supposed to pick up some beer.

I told ya! I told ya!

I told you she's very excited.

I trained you to be a fighter, not a billboard.

I treat you good!

I used to be deadly at stickball. You sure your sister knows I'm comin'?

I wanna know how come.

I wanna know if you got any money for training expenses, eh?

I wanna let my brother know where I am.

I wanna let Rocky out, then I'm gonna talk to him for a few seconds.

I wanna make sure that all this shit that happened to me doesn't happen to you.

I wanna show you somethin'. Look at my face for a minute.

I want the Stallion!

I want you and you. You. You.

I want you outta here! Get outta the house!

I want you to do me a favor. You could see she ain't feelin' too good.

I want you to look at some... will you look at that? Look at that.

I want you to quit chuckin' and jivin'. I want you to stick and move.

I want you!

I want you. You.

I was shocked. Why'd you do that?

I wouldn't be doin' this, you know.

I wouldn't take no cheap shots, either. I'd really be a good sparring partner.

I wouldn't wanna fight. Know what's gonna happen to me? I'm gonna get that!

I, uh...

I'd like to have you meet my colleague workin' the fight with me... Stu Hansen.

I'd like to kill the freakin' moron who broke the mirror.

I'd like to kill the freakin' moron who broke the mirror.

I'd make a great collector. Bustin' bones don't bother me.

I'll break both your arms so they don't work for ya!

I'll do okay. You know.

I'll drop him in three.

I'll just... just sit here.

I'll see ya tomorrow morning, okay?

I'll see ya.

I'll see yous later, all right?

I'll tell ya. A long time ago, this guy... maybe a couple hundred years ago...

I'll tell ya... things get pretty rough in the ring.

I'll tell you somebody who don't wanna hear about it.

I'll tell you what to do.

I'll wait for you here.

I'm all alone

I'm broke... honest to God!

I'm dumb, you're shy. What do you think, huh?

I'm gonna get that!

I'm gonna kill you one of these days, I swear to God!

I'm gonna take a shower.

I'm gonna tell you a new joke tomorrow, okay? Good night, Adrian.

I'm gonna turn the TV off. I got a headache.

I'm not a loser!

I'm not sure I know you well enough.

I'm sick of seein' you hanging around like a freakin' spider!

I'm sure you are.

I'm sure you're gonna give us a great show.

I'm tired.

I've been comin' here for six years, and six years you been stickin' it to me.

I've been out there walkin' around, thinkin'.

I've had guys bustin' on it, I had guys chewin' on it,

I've never been in a man's apartment alone.

I've never seen a fighter that concerned about his hair.

I've promoted fights in every goddamn country in the world,

If I was you and you got the money, I would take a cab or something.

If you could let her on the ice, I'd appreciate it. For a few minutes.

If you do that to Apollo Creed, they'll put us in jail for murder.

If you don't mind my sayin'.

If you don't pay Gazzo, you end up on the hook.

In a moment, he's going to demonstrate that

In fact, it just looks like Rocky's blocking the blows with his face.

In foreign countries, during WWI,

Into the face! And that's the Apollo we know.

Is at Kennedy Airport, New York.

Is he still around?

Is he supposed to be George Washington?

Is it a coincidence that he's fighting a black man

Is that a face you could trust or what? Huh? Is it?

Is that Mr. Balboa has an unusual method of training.

Is that the world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed?

Is this a common training method? Do other fighters pound raw meat?

Is this you?

It did.

It doesn't really matter, does it?

It don't bother me, either.

It don't matter, 'cause I was nobody before.

It don't sound like much, but it adds up, you know.

It had more flies in it... more moths and flies.

It hurts, though. He broke my rib.

It is a coincidence that you're fighting a white man

It means if he can't fight, I bet he can cook.

It plays hell on the joints.

It really don't matter if I lose this fight.

It really don't matter if this guy opens my head, either.

It says here Mac Lee Green

It'll make your teeth yellow. Don't do that.

It's a nice couch. I don't know.

It's a racket where you're almost guaranteed to end up a bum.

It's a waste of life!

It's been confirmed.

It's been my locker for six years. Where's my gear?

It's cold outside, Paulie.

It's Dipper's stuff. It ain't your locker no more.

It's gettin' cold in here. I'm going home.

It's not just your house.

It's not that.

It's okay. Don't worry about it. See ya, all right?

It's only about 28 degrees. We'll check that forecast in just a minute.

It's so hard now

It's very American.

It's very smart.

It's worth 50, $60.

Jimmy, you guys ready? Let's roll.

Joe Zach's a good prospect.

Just a few questions about your unique training method.

Just a moment.

Just don't take no cheap shots, you know?

Keep doin' what you're doin'. You're funny.

Keep the...

Kid Brooks and Sugar Johnson.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Ladies and gentlemen, your attention, please...

Ladies and gentlemen...

Last year me and the turtles had spam. What do you think?

Leave about two feet of slack.

Left and right. Rocky's got him on the rope!

Left. There's another left.

Leg's are goin', everything is goin', Nobody's gettin' no nothin'.

Legs ain't workin', nothing's workin',

Let me in one day and I hit the beef here and kinda liked it.

Let's go to work right now, Rock! Come on!

Let's try it again, Rocky.

Let's try this. Now, take this string. Tie it to both ankles.

Like the guy says, you're gonna eat lightning

Listen to me. I wanna be your manager.

Listen to this crowd!

Listen, Apollo, tell me... how do you feel about your challenger?

Listen, I don't want no turkey anyway, you know?

Listen, just settle yourself in. Just relax.

Listen, kid. You! You lay off that pet shop dame.

Listen, kid...

Listen, Rocky...

Listen, the reason I brought you here is because, uh...

Listen, uh...

Listen, uh...

Listen, we got a winner here! We got a chance!

Listen, we wanna get a brief interview with you. It won't take long.

Listen, why don't you just make the meat, okay?

Lockers are bad, anyway.

Look at me. I'm not ready for this.

Look at that. No, wait. Hey, it ain't your fault. Look.

Look at these birds.

Look at this face. 64 fights. Look at that nose.

Look at this. Can you believe all this? They put a microphone on me.

Look, I asked, but you never heard nothin'!

Look, if history proves one thing,

Look, it's after 6:00, it's Thanksgiving. That's why there's nobody here.

Look, it's the name, man.

Look, kid, I wanna make a suggestion. Don't drink that piss before a fight.

Look. See? Nothin'. It bends like that, see?

Look... this girl here ain't feelin' well, you know.

Looks like he means business.

Make sure you have it snuggled on before you bring it out.

Marciano had the same problem, and this string cured it.

Maybe two weeks. Give me a call.

Maybe you oughta see a doctor. What do you think?

Maybe. Maybe.

Me and Mrs. Kramer are up, and it's a good morning.

Mickey tells me what to do, I gotta do it, right, Rock?

Mickey told me to bag it and hang it.

Moo.

More flies... more moths... who the hell cares?

Move your little chicken asses out of here.

Mr. Balboa.

Mr. Balboa.

Mr. Gazzo says I should get the 200 or break your thumb, you understand?

Mr. Jergens, the poster's wrong.

Mr. Rocky Balboa to see you, sir.

My back is hurtin'. You deaf?

My father... he's, uh... my old man, he was never too smart.

My main man, Rocky, ain't you Italian?

My mother... she said the opposite thing.

My name?

My problem is I've been talking to your man Michael.

My proposition is this...

My sister really likes you.

My sister. If she don't start livin', her body's gonna dry up.

Nah. I ain't skated since I was 15.

Never broken. I'm very proud of that. Isn't that rare? That's rare.

Never got a chance, though, because you're left handed, huh?

Next, a six rounder between local lightweights

No joke, huh?

No low blows, watch your heads, no butting.

No one having gone more than...

No, I can't.

No, I don't feel any heat from that name.

No, I think I invented it.

No, I think maybe we're just early or something like that.

No, I'm short.

No, Jergens.

No, no. I gotta go.

No, no. No, no. Two yards from Cappoli and a grand from Snyder.

No, you ain't got a boyfriend.

No?

No.

No.

No. Across the street.

No. I gotta go.

Nobody wants to look awkward.

Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed.

Not your fault. I'm just kind of aggravated. Wanna hear about it?

Nothing special about you. You never got your nose busted.

Now he's coming over to talk to the Champ.

Now he's taunting him.

Now I wanna give it to you!

Now Rocky coming back out, and he's like a bull in a china closet.

Now you're a big shot fighter on your way up,

Now, that's the way I see it.

Now, they're good fighters, right? They're colorful, they got good records.

Now, who discovered America? An Italian, right?

Now, you said pick up two yards from Snyder

Obviously so. He's got the hat on, the whole thing. Look at that.

Of course, we can cancel the fight indefinitely

Of guts and stamina in the history of the ring.

Oh, Balboa's taking a tremendous beating here.

Oh, certainly.

Oh, come on, Adrian. It's true.

Oh, come on, man. Can't you fight?

Oh, come on. I don't know yet, okay?

Oh, he's taking his...

Oh, no way, but with the ability of the Champion...

Oh, Paulie.

Oh, Rock. I want you to meet our cutman here, Al Salvani.

Oh, the Champ is just taunting him now.

Oh, the Champion really tagged him!

Oh, those are domestic turtles.

Oh! Another to the rib. That left hand again right to the chin!

Oh! He tagged the Champ with a tremendous hook!

Oh! Look at that! Uncle Sam himself.

Oh! You must be Mr. Rocky Balboa. Mr. Jergens is expecting you.

Oh.

Oh. A turkey in the oven?

Oh... uh, I invented that about eight years ago

Okay, break.

Okay, I'll make the meat.

Okay, I'll see you later, man.

Okay, I'm gonna tell ya!

Okay, Mick. I'll see ya tomorrow.

Okay, now, when you walk into the ring

On the most celebrated day in the country's history?

On the most celebrated day in the country's history?

One call from me, you're a celebrity.

One time, this... this son of a bitch that I fought,

Or how 'bout I wait here and you fight, huh?

Other guys it throws their timing off, makes them look awkward.

Our high today could possibly be 58, and that's it.

Outta the goddamn ring. That's, uh, September the 14th, 1923.

Paulie keeps askin' me for a job all the time,

Paulie, I can't go!

Paulie, it's Thanksgivin'. I got a turkey in the oven.

Paulie, why didn't you tell me you were bringing him here?

Paulie?

Paulie? You're late.

Paulie.

Philadelphia

Philadelphia's favorite son,

Philadelphia's own Smoking Joe, the beloved Mr. Joe Frazier!

Pugs like us, we was treated like dogs.

Put your hands up there, chump.

Real nice.

Real nice. Come on in and move. It stinks!

Relax, Buddy. All right, pull it over here.

Remember we were talking about George Washington throwing the dollar?

Remember you were workin' at that pet shop, huh?

Remember? Remember that mountain?

Right on! Tell the truth, brother!

Right, right. Left, left.

Right. Thank you, Rocky.

Ringside.

Rocko! That's my friend. Rocko!

Rocky Balboa climbing into the ring now.

Rocky Balboa? Never heard of him.

Rocky just looking.

Rocky, how's it been going?

Rocky, I've got a proposition I'd like to make to you.

Rocky, now your payday will be $150.000.

Rocky, should I bet the fight don't go three rounds?

Rocky, why don't you turn right around here.

Rocky, you know?

Rocky!

Rocky!

Rocky!

Rocky! Look at my date. Cost me $200.

Rocky. What brings you here tonight?

Rory, does your brother know you're hanging out so late?

Screw you, creep o!

See that nose?

See ya!

See, you use dirty words

See? Look, I had it... it's an old wound, you see that?

Seven... eight... nine...

Shake hands now and come out fightin'.

Shape nothin', man! They're afraid.

She ain't retarded. She's shy, you know?

She just looks at me, you know what I mean?

She said you weren't born with much of a body,

She's got gaps, I got gaps. Together, we fill gaps. I don't know.

She's very excited.

Shirley, we got any more coffee out there?

Show business, and the sporting world who are with us tonight.

Six... seven... eight.

So Apollo Creed, on January 1st,

So do me a favor and not stay here, huh?

So I become a fighter.

So just wait here for a few minutes. I'll be right back, okay?

So long, meatbag.

So then that's why they call 'em southpaw, you see?

So what do you want from me?

So you better develop your brain.

So you better start using your body," right?

So, I was thinkin'...

So, uh...

So, uh... I'm gonna go home, make up a joke.

So, why didn't you break his thumb like I told you to?

Solution nothin'. You better find me another ranked contender.

Some guys, they just hate for no reason, capisce?

Some meat sign on the back of his robe there.

Something wrong with my face? You know what I mean?

Sometimes I got pains all over me.

Sometimes she gets me so crazy, I could split her head with a razor.

Sounds like a damn monster movie.

Southpaw, South Jersey. South Camden, southpaw.

Spider Rico.

Spider, here's your share. $40.00, less $15 locker and corner man,

Sports make you grunt and smell.

Stay away, baby

Stay in school and use your brain.

Stay to the body. The body! You're doing great!

Stick that up your business.

Stinks in... hey, come on. It stinks in here, you know.

Stop clownin' around here and give these people something to see.

Sure, I know you sold them to me.

Sure, I like her.

Sure, Rocky. Bob's good for it.

Sure.

Take a chair, please.

Take her to the zoo.

Take her to the zoo. I hear retards like the zoo.

Take off these glasses.

Talk to Gazzo about me. Tell him I'm a good man and nothin' bothers me.

Talk to Gazzo about me. Tell him I'm a good man and nothin' bothers me.

Talk to the folks at home.

Talkin' about your prime.

Tell me, Rocky, just between us...

Tell me, Rocky, you got any representation?

Ten bucks? How 'bout eight... eight bucks?

Ten minutes, ten bucks.

Terrific. I mean, you could be a heartbreaker.

Thank you, Bill Baldwin.

Thanks for the bird.

Thanks.

Thanks.

That I had the stuff to make a good pro, you know?

That if you can move and you can hit without breaking the string,

That nose ain't never been broken. 64 fights.

That so?

That they can get off light.

That was it. Just one. What are you doing?

That what happened to you is freak luck.

That's good, man. You come down to the gym, we'll see that you get in shape.

That's it. That's it. I'm broke.

That's it. That's it. Underneath.

That's nice. You take very good care of the picture, though.

That's right, this is gonna be

That's right! I'm not good enough to meet with Gazzo...

That's right.

That's right. You move like him, and you got heart like he did.

That's right... it stinks!

That's right... you didn't say nothin'! Nothin' at all!

That's the big time! Don't I know about these things?

That's the Italian Stallion when he was a baby.

That's the way I looked... before these guys got at me.

That's what I think of Gazzo!

That's when I started fightin'... when I was 15.

That's why I want you to talk to him about me... the collectin' job.

That's why you wanted me.

That's, uh... last turtle food I got here.

The arena's the only program concession,

The challenger,

The Champ's stinging, the slower challenger jabs at will.

The Champion doesn't look the best he's ever been,

The Champion gives one of the left handed jabs right there.

The Champion got a left to the ribs... his right rib.

The Champion is trying to get himself out of there,

The crowd is on fire. The 15th and final round.

The doctor should be in in about 20 minutes.

The doctors say she should go out and exercise once in a while,

The electricity is all over the place tonight as Rocky Balboa...

The fight is on the way. Settle down because it won't be long now.

The fight's set.

The fighters come into the center of the ring, looking at each other.

The greatest sporting event in the country's history.

The guy's great.

The hell. What do you want?

The Italian Stallion, Rocky Balboa.

The Italian Stallion.

The Italian Stallion. The media will eat it up.

The joints from walkin' and carryin' meat in and out of freezers.

The last fight I had, I had with this guy named Spider Rico.

The master of disaster,

The mornin' after a fight, you're nothing but a large wound, know what I mean?

The one on the top is Cuff and the other guy's Link.

The pros. All we got today are jig clowns.

The reason we're standing in this refrigerated box

The rest of them are marbles.

The same night. So, who gets the publicity? Figure that out.

The truck that run over your face.

The undisputed, heavyweight champion of the world

The way you're lookin'... very sharp.

Then get me Buddy Shaw! Hell, he's ranked fifth!

Then why'd I bother bringing it up, huh?

There goes the big hat.

There!

There's 50 bucks. You and your girl Adrian have a nice time, you hear?

There's 130 here.

There's a good game down at the Spectrum tonight.

There's big bugs in there, you know. It's safer over here.

There's no foolin' around during training, understand? I wanna stay strong.

These are my friends Cuff and Link.

These are the exotic animals I was tellin' you about.

These guys think that we're runnin' some kind of charity or somethin'.

These guys, they hittin' my nose all the time.

They fight their guts out for peanuts.

They know everybody in the world's gonna see this fight,

They look like they've been in a war... these two.

They must be friends.

They never took her out for any serious datin'.

They oughta stick this face on a stamp. What do you think?

They're a mess.

They're lemons. Lemons.

They're probably lookin' for sparrin' partners for Creed, you know?

This ain't no charity case.

This guy... he's the best, and, uh, it wouldn't be such a good fight.

This is Don Cannon, W I B G Philadelphia.

This is gonna be a tough one.

This is the first time the Champion has ever been knocked down.

This is the land of opportunity, right?

This is what I'm looking for.

This place is like an animal morgue, you know?

This whole place stinks.

Throwing the dollar.

Time does not permit me to introduce the many luminaries of politics,

Time. Time!

Time...

To fill Green's vacancy for the bicentennial championship fight.

To get whipped in front of the whole civilized world.

To keep you company when you run.

To the body. To the body. Attaboy.

To watch you train! Boom.

Today we're here with heavyweight challenger Rocky Balboa.

Today we're here with heavyweight challenger Rocky Balboa.

Tomorrow collect from Del Rio.

Tomorrow you come for some bird, right?

Tomorrow, three weeks, Del Rio?

Tonight we're back down on the 20 degree range,

Too many creeps around here, you know.

Took you long enough to get here.

Took you ten years to come to my house?

Tough day today, you know. They took my locker away.

Try it.

Try to get some rest, kid.

Try to get some rest, kid.

Trying hard now

Trying hard now

Trying to give the fans their money's worth.

Twistin' it, punchin' it... I mean, whack! Boom!

Uh, these... these your parents?

Uh, well, geez, you know. Creed's the best.

Uh, well, my friend... the guy over there...

Uh... you and my sister.

Undefeated in 46 fights,

Underneath, underneath, underneath. Come on!

W I B G

Wait a minute. I just wanna say hi to my girlfriend, okay?

Wanna fight the fight? Yeah, I'll fight the big fight.

Wanna go to a basketball game?

Want me to get you a beer, Paulie?

Want me to take a shot? All right... I'll take a shot.

Was when they were having a $2 special

Water.

We deserve it. We've been getting away with murder the last couple weeks.

We have a split decision.

We love you, Rocky!

We may hit 40 somewhere.

We wanna ask Apollo a few questions.

We'll fake it. I'll tape up the hand like you broke the thumb.

We'll have a real good time.

We're gonna have a good time.

Weighing 210 pounds,

Welcome to Philadelphia.

Well, ain't they?

Well, everybody who's anybody is here tonight.

Well, I got pain and I got experience, too.

Well, I gotta go, too. I gotta go to the bathroom. Come on.

Well, I just don't think Gazzo's hirin' right now, you know? You know?

Well, I...

Well, I... they're all the same. You know.

Well, I'll call your brother, if that's the problem.

Well, I'm not sure, Rock. What's the story?

Well, I'm wearin' white pants with a red stripe.

Well, it's just I know you're lookin' for sparrin' partners,

Well, it's just that, you see, uh...

Well, it's only temporary, you know.

Well, just being in Philadelphia makes me feel patriotic.

Well, just being in Philadelphia makes me feel patriotic.

Well, leave it that way... nice and pretty, and what's left of your mind.

Well, no, it's just inventin' jokes ain't so easy sometimes.

Well, now, what does that mean?

Well, the thing is, I got vinyl seats in my car.

Well, what else? Look at him.

Well, what you need is a manager.

Well, you know, it's okay, 'cause you're my guest.

Went to California and gained 50 pounds.

What about all the time Apollo has invested?

What are we gonna do?

What are you so insulted about?

What do I owe you, Paulie?! What do I owe ya?!

What do you know about advertisin'? Huh?

What do you mean?

What do you mean? Come here, Rock.

What do you say?

What do you think about Billy Snow?

What do you think? Would you like to?

What is the matter with you, Paulie? This was supposed to be private.

What shot did you ever take?

What the hell are those?

What this fight is gonna need is a novelty.

What time should I expect you?

What was I gonna say?

What we're going to do is just ask you a few questions, Rocky.

What were you thinking about when that buzzer sounded?

What would be better than to get it on with one of his descendents?

What you talkin' 'bout, it ain't my locker?

What, are you crazy, Paulie?

What, are you driving me crazy? Both of yous.

What?

What?

What?

What... I need a Cadillac to connect with your sister?

What'd she say? What'd she say, the opposite?

What's he eat... this dog?

What's that, Butkus, huh? Whose truck is this? Come on.

What's the matter? You don't like the room, do ya.

What's the problem?

What's the story? What's happening?

What's to say? I just don't know what he wants from me.

When a reporter's around, I get out of joint

When do I fight again?

When I go and get you meat every morning!

When I hit the seats this morning, I just went. "Whew!"

When I was eatin' dinner.

When I was your age,

When you don't do what I tell you to do, you make me look bad, Rock.

Where did you get the name "Italian Stallion"?

Where is he?

Where the hell is...

Where's my lock? Whose stuff is this in my locker?

Where's the freakin' pretzels?!

Which makes me wonder, can he stand it...

White trunks, weighing 190 pounds,

White wig came off, the hat came off.

Who has virtually no chance of winning?

Who killed all these things?

Who needs the aggravation, right? The interruptions.

Who pays the bills around here?

Who'd probably be able to get you a good tax break.

Who'd you wanna call?

Who's this girl you're going out with tomorrow night?

Whore. You understand? Whore.

Why are you... why are you laughin'?

Why didn't you just ask me, kid?

Why didn't you tell me you were bringing him home?

Why don't you come on over and make yourself comfortable? Relax.

Why don't you do yourself a favor?

Why don't you keep this job, because you eat better, you know?

Why don't you talk to him about me?

Why weren't you there, huh? You should've seen me.

Why?

Why? Because I waited for 50 years to make you ready.

Wish me luck. I'm gonna need it.

With the number one heavyweight of the world,

Without such good people around to help,

Women weaken legs, huh?

Would it make a difference if you were?

Would you be interested in fighting Apollo Creed

Would you like to, uh...

Would you take a look at that guy?

Would you take off that hat?

Wow. Cold night.

Yeah, a million dollars.

Yeah, but I really like this girl, you know?

Yeah, he's doing real good. He's doing better than you... that's for sure.

Yeah, I got heart, but I ain't got no locker, do I, Mick?

Yeah, I got it. Got it.

Yeah, I mean business, too.

Yeah, I originally done it. I carry pictures of all my fights.

Yeah, I remember that.

Yeah, I wanna know how come.

Yeah, I'll fight him.

Yeah, I'm Italian.

Yeah, it threw my whole training schedule off.

Yeah, somethin' like that. Somethin' like that.

Yeah, sure it is. Can I sit down?

Yeah, sure.

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.

Yeah, that's me when I was eight years old.

Yeah, that's... that's both of them there.

Yeah, there was some guy here from Miles Jergens lookin' for you.

Yeah, to you. But to me it's Thursday.

Yeah, who are you to give advice, creep o? Huh?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's very excited.

Yeah, yeah. She's very excited.

Yeah?

Yeah?

Yeah? They make good soup, don't they?

Yeah? Who'd you fight?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. All right.

Yeah. Hey, listen, I'm gonna smooth this guy out here.

Yeah. It ain't locked, right?

Yeah. Yeah. You know, the last time I had a turkey

Yeah... I know.

Yes, may I help you?

Yo, Adrian, are you hungry?

Yo, Adrian, it's me, Rocky.

Yo, Adrian, it's Rocky again, you know?

Yo, Adrian, you know, I ain't so comfortable either.

Yo, Adrian.

Yo, Paulie, listen. Maybe we just better forget all this, you know?

Yo, Paulie, your sister's with me! I'll call yous back later!

Yo, Paulie!

Yo, Rock... I guess you'll be looking for people to help you out.

Yo, why don't you come on over here and sit down?

Yo, you look great.

Yo! Time!

Yo.

Yo.

Yo.

Yo. Come on.

You ain't gonna get a second chance.

You ain't no friend no more.

You ain't so bad yourself.

You ain't stoppin' nothin', man. You ain't stoppin' nothin'.

You ballin' her?

You became a leg breaker to some cheap, second rate loan shark.

You become a very dangerous person.

You boys both fought in Philadelphia before, and you know the rules.

You callin' Apollo Creed a clown?

You can always tell a creep.

You can quote a recent sports magazine which said,

You can't live by yourself!

You can't pass it by.

You covered that Whitmar fight, didn't you?

You don't even throw a crumb to your friend Paulie!

You don't have such a good chance.

You don't have to break nothing. Here, take my coat.

You don't know nothin'! What do these guys want from me?

You don't like me?

You don't like the turtles? What's the problem?

You don't really have to be one. You just act like one... that's it. Boom.

You don't think I hear things?

You don't understand me, Rocky.

You don't wanna know.

You forgot that! Then I even give you my sister, too!

You fought a good fight, Spider.

You get no respect, you understand?

You get no respect. And I gotta use a bad word.

You gonna show up at the fight?

You got balance.

You got heart, but you fight like a goddamn ape.

You got... You got it, Rock?

You gotta be a moron to wanna be a fighter, you know what I mean?

You gotta go. You gotta give it all. Give it all!

You gotta pay for that turtle food, rockhead.

You guys are gettin' better every year, you know that?

You guys hungry? Huh?

You hang around coconuts, you get nowhere.

You hang out with nice people, you get nice friends, you understand?

You hang out with smart people, you get smart friends.

You hang out with yo yo people, you get yo yo friends.

You have a manager?

You have nice eyes.

You have the ice to yourself. Ten bucks.

You have the spotlights.

You hope I don't keep acting like a whore, or I'll turn into one, right?

You hungry, Rock?

You just stand by, boy. We're gonna win.

You know how I got started in fightin'?

You know how I said that stuff on TV didn't bother me none?

You know how to do funny. You wanna go out with my sister?

You know that? You should've planned ahead.

You know what I mean?

You know what I mean?

You know what? I had my nose busted 17 times.

You know what? I had my nose busted 17 times.

You know why? 'Cause I did real good last night, and you should've seen me.

You know why? Why don't you think you have a boyfriend?

You know, if you guys could sing or dance,

You know, it's no good for you.

You know, like I was saying before on the way over here.

You know, Mick, I think I'm gonna go take a steam.

You know, some people think that being shy is a disease,

You know, tomorrow's Thanksgiving, you know that?

You know, when I begun in this business, kid...

You know, when I begun in this business, kid...

You know, with some people, I'm very shy by nature, you know?

You know, you kinda remind me of the Rock, you know that?

You know, your brother's a good man, but he's awful pushy, you know?

You know?

You know. Don't you think I hear things?

You let him into your pants! She's busted!

You like the way I skate?

You make me look bad in front of your sister...

You need some help with that cage?

You need somebody to walk you home?

You need someone to help with the exercise,

You never got the chance?

You oughta come look at this boy you're gonna fight on TV.

You owe me!

You put my stuff on skid row.

You really got lucky tonight.

You really think so?

You see this cigar? I'll stick it in your ear. Don't do these things to me!

You see? It's simple mathematics.

You see? That's why I can't connect you with Gazzo, you know that, Paulie?

You should've called me up or something... leave a message.

You should've planned ahead.

You should've planned ahead.

You shoulda seen me when I knocked Giny Russo outta the ring.

You stink up the neighborhood!

You think everybody I fight is a bum.

You thought of that, huh?

You understand?

You wanna borrow, you gotta pay the man.

You wanna dance, you gotta pay the band, understand?

You wanna help me out?

You wanna help me out? Well, help me out!

You wanna read that?

You wanna see your friend Moby Dick, huh?

You wanna sit down?

You want a roommate?

You want some advice?

You want some good advice?

You want the bird?

You worked so hard.

You, chump. I want you!

You... oh, it doesn't matter.

You... you got no comment, Rocky, right? No comment.

You'll be able to spit nails, kid.

You'll be ready, won't ya?

You'll walk down the street breaking hearts,

You're a bum.

You're a bum... you know that? You're a bum!

You're bleeding inside, Champ. I'm gonna stop the fight, understand?

You're embarrassin' me in front of everybody,

You're fighting like a bum.

You're gonna become a very dangerous person.

You're gonna kill him!

You're in the kitchen, and I want you out right now.

You're in training, huh? Come on.

You're lookin' very great today... you know that?

You're lookin' very great today... you know that?

You're not a virgin!

You're so sloppy because you're off balance.

You're startin' with bad jokes early, huh?

You're still a healthy person, you know that?

You're such a loser! I don't get married because of you!

You're supposed to be good to me.

You're waltzing. Give this sucker some action.

You've had the privilege of witnessing the greatest exhibition

Your face is all busted up, your hands are swollen, you know?

Your hair hurts, your eyes hurt,

Your nose is broke.

Your sister knows I'm coming for sure, right?

'Cause he was Champ. No! Because he had a manager.

"I want you." That's what he's doing a take of.

$300,000. Make it 450.

50 years, huh? 50 years.

250. I gotta go. I gotta work.

A tomato? Yeah, let's face it.

Adrian? Adrian! Rocky!

Apollo, Apollo, Apollo. Yes?

Are the doctor's reports confirmed? Definitely.

Baby! Baby.

Back to your corner. Put that chump back in his corner.

Been fightin'. Hope you won it, at least.

Bob. Bob. Listen, Bob. Listen, Bob!

Call me Rocky. Rocky.

Clowns? That's right. Clowns.

Come on, Creed. Balboa doesn't want to quit. Hey.

Come out fightin'. Come on. Come on.

Cover up. Things'll be okay. Cover up? You cover up.

Cut me, Mick. I don't wanna do it!

Dempsey. That's right. But why?

Did you fight last night? Yeah.

Did you get the license number? Of what?

Did you win? Yeah, I won. Kayo in the second.

Don't tease me. I'm not teasing you.

For me? Yeah.

Forget her. What do you mean, forget her?

Get out of my house, I just says. Don't talk to him like that.

Go if you wanna go. I'm goin'.

He eats little turtles. Yo, Butkus!

He's in a bad mood. So am I.

He's taking cheap shots. It don't bother me none.

He's throwing money. I don't believe it.

He's yours. He's yours if you want him. Do I want him? Come here!

Hello? Good morning, Mrs. Kramer.

Help in what? Keep you livin' the clean life.

Hey, man. What?

Hey, Mick. Shut up!

Hey, Rock. What?

Hey, Rock. What?

Hey! What?

Hey! Don't hit the face! Shut up!

Hey. Hey, what?

Hey. Oh, Mick was lookin' for you up there.

Hey. She's pushin' 30 freakin' years old.

How 'bout you give us your autograph? Get outta here!

How are you this morning? Huh?

How do I feel about him? Yeah.

How do you know I didn't? I'm not gonna go, Paulie! I can't go!

How do you know I didn't... You don't think I hear things?

How'd you do last night? I did real good.

How's it look? Ah, it's an improvement.

How's that? Advertisin'. I know about that stuff.

How's the robe? It's a little baggy.

Huh? No.

I ain't had time to check on him. Yo, Butkus!

I don't ask nobody twice. I don't ask nobody twice.

I don't like your face. I don't like yours, either!

I don't think I belong here. It's okay.

I don't think you're a bum. Well, I'm at least half a bum, you know?

I got a friend for you. Hello, Rock.

I gotta go. Oh.

I hope you ain't... I won't.

I like yellow teeth. It'll make your breath like garbage.

I love you! I love you.

I turned the heat up. Thanks.

I wanna talk to you anyway. About what?

I want you, you understand? You're next, Joe!

I weigh 175. Hey, Rock. How you doin', babe?

I won't go! Why?!

I, uh... Yo, Adrian! It's me, Rocky.

I'm 30 myself. Then you're gonna end up dying alone.

I'm calling you a bum! Okay, relax. Relax.

I'm doin' it for a friend. What do you get out of it?

I'm doin' you a favor! You ain't doin' me no favors!

I'm going out with Paulie's sister. Hey, Rocky.

I'm in charge of the meat. Fine. Will you stand behind it, please?

I'm tired of you being a loser. Don't call me that, Paulie!

Is he talkin' to me? He's talkin' to you.

Is he talkin' to me? Let him talk while he can talk.

It looks kinda quiet, you know? I think it's closed.

It's a little cold in here, ain't it? Yeah.

Just forget it. Forget nothin'.

Just... No, you should've planned ahead.

Kiss my ass! Move your shoulders down!

Look at my swollen hands. Yeah.

Look at the blood coming from his face. Oh, he's spitting up blood now.

Look, I'm gonna show you somethin'. Seven minutes!

Looks, huh? Yeah, like I'm a plate of leftovers.

Maybe I like garbage. Come on, nobody likes garbage.

Mouthpiece. Move into your...

Mrs. Kramer? What?!

No plans out there for a rematch? Ain't gonna be a rematch.

No wine. Come on. Just a little.

No, I gotta go. Hey, look at this face.

No, my back is hurtin'. Your back?

No. No? It's a cold night.

No. Three minutes!

No. You think about it.

No. It's just me. Oh.

Not the face! Mr. Gazzo wants the 200 now.

Okay, Champ? Yeah, I'm okay. I'm okay.

Okay, no more foolin' around. Okay. Now hit it.

On January 1st, the first major event in the country...

Only a pig would say that! I'm a pig?

Open a dictionary, Rock! Come on!

Open a dictionary, Rock! Come on!

Paulie! I got it. I got it.

Please! Please... What's your name again?

Quit pushin', man! Thank you, Rocky.

Really? Oh, yeah.

Remember what I told you. What'd you tell me?

Right. You never helped me. You didn't care.

Screw you, Go go. Her brother knows.

See, be a thinker, not a stinker. Okay, thanks a lot, Champ.

She's a freakin' loser. Hey.

Some more coffee, Mr. Creed? No, thanks, Shirley.

Stuff it, man! Never say that! Come here!

Take a look at his eye. How're you doin'?

Thanks. Let's go.

That's right. It ain't bad. I seen worse.

The Champ is down. Yes, he is!

The mornin' after? I'll tell you. Yeah.

The reason we're standing... The meat guy's stickin' his face in.

There he is. That's it, Creed.

They do everything backwards. Southpaw nothin'.

This bum gotta say that? Who're you calling a bum?

Thumb. The thumb, yeah. In the glove.

Two yards. Two yards. Write it down, okay?

Uh, sparrin'? Beg your pardon?

Wanna help me off with these? Sure.

We could go someplace else. No, it's okay.

We're closed. What?

Well, you caught me in a bad mood. You're always in a bad mood.

What about me? What about you?

What are you... a doctor? You got problems today?

What? I hear she's retarded.

What? I said, how're you feelin'?

What? You're a tomato.

What? Did I say something wrong? You didn't say nothin'. It's all right.

What? What is it? I just wanna check this thing out.

What'd I do? Nothin'.

What's a southpaw? A southpaw means you're left handed.

What's gaps? I don't know. Gaps.

What's this? 500 bucks. Don't worry about it.

When was he here? About an hour ago.

Where you runnin'? Hey! Hey!

Why do you do it if it hurts? Why do you think?

Why do you wanna fight? 'Cause I can't sing or dance.

Why? 'Cause that's the way guys are.

Will you please go in, Mr. Balboa. Can I have that?

Would you do me a favor? Hey, come on. We're not operatin'.

Yeah, he's in the steam room. Yeah?

Yeah, something like that. Good night, Rocky.

Yeah, sure. Yeah, good.

Yeah, yeah. All right, go on, man.

Yeah. All right. Time.

Yeah. Come here.

Yeah. Nah. He's too old and dull.

Yo, Mickey. Hey! How are ya?

Yo, Rock, how's your boxin'? Real good.

Yo, Rock. Yo, Rocky.

Yo, Tony. What?

Yo! Yo!

You can do better than her. Forget nothin'.

You didn't. Thank you, Rocky.

You feel strong? Absolutely.

You follow? You're lookin' good, Rock.

You got a match? Go to him for me. As a favor.

You got a smoke? Yeah, you could have this one.

You know what I done? What?

You know what I mean? Yeah.

You know where southpaw came from? Nine minutes!

You know, you can... Hey!

You owe me! What do I owe you?!

You still work for Gazzo? Yeah, sure.

You stop this fight, I'll kill ya. All right.

You sure? Yeah, I'm sure.

You sure? Yeah, I'm sure.

You sure? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You wanna know? I wanna know!

You want me to rub you down? No, I'm just... I'm just sore, okay?

You're busted! What?!

You're gonna need exposure. Oh, don't breathe on me, Paulie!

You're not kiddin'? No, I ain't kiddin'.

You're puttin' me on. There's the card.

You've been ducking me long time. No, Joe. You're next, Joe.

... for Creed.

... he's been in his career as a fighter.

...I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, you see...

...I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, you see...

...see, if that bell rings and I'm still standin'...

...see, if that bell rings and I'm still standin'...

...that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood.

'Cause all I wanna do is go the distance.

'cause I ain't never talked to no door before, you know?

'cause they take cheap shots, and Paulie knows that.

'Cause you had the talent to become a good fighter,

'Cause you're hangin' out with them coconuts in the corner, understand?

'Cause... you can't sing and dance.

'Course, if you threw a dollar in those days, it went a lot farther.

"Could be the caveman against the cavalier."

"Hey, you remember Marie?"

"No, who's she?"

"Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, now I remember her."

"She's the little whore that hung out at the Atomic Hoagie Shop."
