I used to box, actually during the time that Rocky first came out, now that is dating me. I personally thought they were all good, not great, the first one is great, but all others, including V good. Can't tell you how many times I put on the sweats, drunk the raw eggs and went out for a run. As to the toughest opponent, I still say Mr. T, most likeable opponent, Apollo Creed, opponent I really liked seeing get his rear kicked, Tommy Morrison, did you ever think that life would imitate art so closely on the character Morrison played.
