*joking but serioud* ya know if you weren’t right I’d getcha chump 😂 Well, you are right I just turned 41 and I can relate. That’s a man something just changes and what I’m beginning to learn is It’s in his own best interest to Follow along quietly, Make the 100% best with everything you have; Think of artists who create breathtaking pieces with so little and you look at it and your jaw drops while you think how the hell did you do that? A lot easier said than done. Returning to this heart touching clip, I believe it was in Apollo‘s best interest to slow down, Study his opponent, Work out with intensity like he did in Rocky 2, Be aware of what he can and cannot do… Then head into the exhibition fight. It’s easy to use your past laurels When you had a certain age, takes a real man to follow everything, I said, and apply it to their own life. I saw Sylvester Stallone redo of Rocky 4. Overall better than the theatrical version, but in some areas the theatrical version Eclipsed The new version. Take this scene for example: The new version Stallone ruined it. I think when Apollo saying you can’t change, he’s talking about something completely different than what Rocky is thinking, and comments on at the end of the fight just a different opinion.

They were never actually enemies. Apollo first challenged Rocky because he thought he would be an easy victory. Apollo was an egomaniac and talked a lot of shit in front of the camera to put on a show and if they were enemies, when Rocky came into his hospital room to ask if he gave him his best, Apollo would have told him to fuck off instead of telling him honestly, "yeah." Rocky humanized him because he crushed his ego. If they were ever enemies at all, he wouldn't have came to him after Mickey died and train him but he did because their Feud was only for the cameras. Behind the scenes, Apollo was a stand-up guy, just full of himself. The fact that he cheated on his wife is another story and besides the point 😂

love this scene! Apollo grew to love Rocky because he showed him respect. One if my fav themes in the movie. The law of recognition - of someone that was great, helped Rocky become great!.

We forget, Apollo is the canon of the series is basically Ali. He's a dominant heavyweight champion that sees himself going to a place worse than defeat...irrelevance. It is hard to go from being one of the most known and beloved people in the world to the person WHO USED TO BE THAT PERSON. That is why so many athletes have to try again. And it's not just boxing...Lyle Alzado in football, Jim Palmer in baseball, hell even Mark Spitz in his early 40's tried to comeback to swimming. Those who have excelled will always believe they have SOMETHING left and beyond that, the pull of fame and status that come with success and celebrity is a highly addictive drug. As much as Apollo is portrayed as a warrior, he's also someone that pridefully sees what looks like a one-dimensional fighter like Drago and thinks, "I'm one of, if not the BEST to ever do it...I can take that guy". Unfortunately, history hasn't been kind to those in the fight game who have tried this (i.e. Sugar Ray Leonard, Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, hell all the way back to Jim Jeffries).

Apollo had a point, he's supposed to be Ali and even " The Greatest" suffered from permanent brain damage. Apollo didn't want to go through that and maybe even had a fight with his wife over wanting to fight again. We all know what happens next. Even Rocky after all the years lost his loved ones and is suffering from a lifetime of boxing. However he is in Mickey and Apollo's shoes being what he needed as a young man. If it wasn't for Apollo, Rocky would still be an enforcer and probably end up in jail or dead. Rocky owed Apollo alot so how could he refuse.

I’ve never understood this conversation until now between these two great friends. Rocky understands that one day, he isn’t going to be a fighter anymore and will eventually have to come to grips with that notion. As you can see in this clip, Apollo isn’t ready to see that. He still wants to live in his “glory days” as a champion boxer even though he’s way passed his prime. I love Apollo’s pride but that is what eventually killed him ...

Well, it’s not easy. Apollo’s natural gift, one of many, is his ability to box. In this universe, he was arguably the greatest fighter to ever live. It’s his identity. He’s poured his life, his heart and his soul into being a fighter. Even though he has millions and millions of dollars, a wife and children, great fame and so much to live for, Apollo doesn’t know who he is if he’s not a boxer. His greatest passion was fighting; take away a person’s passion and it’s like cutting off their arm. Sure, they can live without it, but they won’t feel as whole as they did before.

From "I don't wanna change" to "you cant really change who you are" to rocky saying at the end "if I can change, and you can change, everybody can change". Theres a lot more going on here in this movie beneath the surface. Its a battle between choice and fate, a battle between the old vs the new, a battle between holding on and letting go. A story of a man fighting for his fallen friend (thus respecting his wisdom) but also learning to accept that his own wisdom about changing was true and rightious, thus letting go of any blame he felt for Apollo's death.

It is unfortunately that Apollo couldn't see himself becoming a Don King-type promoter after his boxing career (which leads to making even more money than the actual boxers). He could only see himself in the ring, which obviously has to end at a relatively young age.
