The Rocky and Creed series is known for being grounded, but the franchise has featured some shocking moments that would never happen in real life.
The Rocky and Creed movies are pretty good about sticking to realism, but these 10 moments and story details would have never happened in real-life boxing. Like most movies, the Rocky franchise dramatizes some elements in order to make the films more exciting, heightening some details of the boxing world in order to make the films play better to audiences.
9 The Rocky Balboa Vs. Thunderlips Fight In Rocky III Rocky III features a fight between Rocky Balboa, a boxer, and Thunderlips, a professional wrestler played by Hulk Hogan. While this fight is a fun vignette in the third Rocky movie, it is completely unrealistic. A boxer with as high of a profile as Rocky would never take on an exhibition match with a professional wrestler, as the risk of injury is way too high.
7 The Soviet Officials Applauding Rocky At The End Of Rocky IV Rocky IV takes place at the height of the Cold War, with the ultra-patriotic film using Rocky and Ivan Drago as proxies for the United States and the USSR. During their final fight, government officials from the USSR are in attendance, with them overlooking the fight. However, Rocky's defeat of Ivan Drago and his powerful speech at the end of the film causes the Soviet officials to stand up and applaud.
5 Rocky's Street Fight With Tommy Gunn In Rocky V In a move uncharacteristic for the franchise, Rocky V doesn't end in the ring, but rather with a street fight. Rocky and Tommy Gunn have a spontaneous fistfight outside, with an audience and even a news crew surrounding them. Firstly, someone probably would have tried to break the fight up, most likely the police.
