he lost in the first movie.

Yea but after that he would just give up. He got his ass kicked by clubber lang. got his ass kicked by the kid that he trained. would have gotten his ass kicked for sure against the russian guy but mick died so he got back in shape.

Rocky has no interest lingering around and continuously beating people who are weaker than him.

AH BUBUBUBUBUBUBU!

Time to let go, sweetums.

He didn't "give up" he just had nothing left to prove and retired. And like Rambo, things kept happening that prevented him from living the life he wanted

>>81541414
Actually Paulie fucked them over after his victory in 4. Presumably he would have retired rich and comfortable.

Mick carried him most of the time. He even tells him that in rocky 3 i think. Rocky could only fight if there was some dramatic emotional reason to fight. Like mick dying or his friend appollo getting killed.

>>81541414
literally nobody dislikes these films

He might have been done with boxing but boxing wasn't done with him.
