When Rocky fought Apollo....

who won? Rocky 3 ends with their fight. Rocky 4 starts with it. Who won? For the life of me I can't recall. I assume Rocky...

Anyone know.

Also...I thought they didn't use his theme music in Rocky 5. But I saw it again on TV and in the end credits...they did.

Was this changed for the TV release or is my memory just really bad.

They never showed who won the fight.

Found it..

Question: At the end of Rocky III you and Apollo fought as a "favor" to Apollo for helping you pummel Clubber Lang. I gotta know…who won Rocky vs. Apollo III?

The Albino Mack West Des Moines, IA




In ROCKY III I freeze the frame as both men are throwing their power shots. Rocky is left handed, Apollo is right handed. Since I am the shorter of the two, my punches will travel shorter distance. Apollo is looping his right hand so Rocky lands first and thirty seconds later, Apollo’s attorney shows up and sues Rocky for assault.

Hold everything! What was the answer to the seashells?!?!

Edit: nevermind, I found it. Doesn't sound like it would work very well. And scrape? Ouch.

Spoiler:
OK, this may be bordering on the grotesque, but the way it was explained to me by the writer is you hold two seashells like chopsticks, pull gently and scrape what’s left with the third. You asked for it…. Be careful what you ask for, sorry.
