Rocky IV : Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

Why?

Cheerio.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

It was racism.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

Because Apollo specifically asked him not to… this and lazy writing.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

Apollo was being beaten to death. Rocky is a strong willed individual, particularly after rocky iii when his IQ increased significantly. Why would he allow his friend to die? Did rocky want some sort of pretense to use to fight drago? Did rocky want a sort of emotional tool to exist in allowing drago to seriously hurt or, as it happened, to kill his friend?

Cheerio.

in allowing drago to seriously hurt or, as it happened, to kill his friend?
Major spoilers there, buddy.

This movie is over 30 years-old. Calm the fuck down. Even the movie poster says it all!

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

It doesn't hurt to play it safe.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

Are you touched!? The movie is over 30 years old! Aaaahhhhhhhh! Die you fucking infidel!

Cheerio.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

You should consult ITTY on this matter…He is the Rocky IV expert.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

Itty is stupid. I’ve read the rocky iv novel and am the expert.

Cheerio.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

You are even stupider Vlad, this was in Rocky IV not Rocky III

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

I know it is, you fat dolt.

Cheerio.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

Apollo begged him not to, even when he was half dead. The look on rocky's face as he was struggling with this says it all


as an aside, when Apollo hits the mat out cold he twitches like he is humping the mat
hahahhahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

They always lauded Apollo for his incredible stamina. It’s totally in character for him to keep… “going,” even after death.

Cheerio.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

@Nimda! This is Rocky IV, not III

Cheerio.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

The bigger question is why did five years pass while Rocky was having his rematch fight with Apollo?

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

Is that canon or is it the length of time it took for the sequel to be made?

Cheerio.

Re: Why didn’t Rocky throw in the damn towel when Apollo fought Drago?

He arrives back home and meets his son in the driveway saying he was out getting punched. Maybe the movie jumps ahead in time after Rocky serenades Adrian when Drago's profile picture fades into shot.

Stallone has a weak throwing arm.

So that the black man can get killed showing the white man is superior in boxing movies.

When was the last time a white man dominated heavyweight boxing IRL?
Before the Joe Louis era?
