ROCKY VS. DRAGO
« on: April 28, 2015, 03:31:24 PM »
This is boxing related, so would most likely fall under this subforum.

Two different training styles, great athletes, nontheless. Drago trained in a more posh, upper class environment, while Rocky trained in the outdoor, fighting the elements of the wilderness. Did Rocky win because he trained in a more natural environment? Was he more conditioned due to training in the outdoors?  Would you rather train like Drago or Rocky?

Right now, I train like Drago, in an upscale sort of gym. However, Id love to train like Rocky. SF1900 and the wilderness training together would be a wonderful thing. I would brave the elements!

Looks like Rocky was GoRuck and Drago was Planet Fitness.

Rocky won, because it was in the script.

Training like Drago is far more practical overall. Not a fan of punching frozen slabs of beef.

Shizzo, I just joined a Planet Fitness today. But keep that off of the main G and O. I do not want to be shunned for joining planet fitness. I trust you. Do not let me down.

It was in the script? Are you saying that professional boxing is rigged?   :o :o Lets pretend it was not scripted, would Rocky have had the advantage of training in the wild? He should have fought some bears.

Rocky won because he took the hit and kept moving forward.Rocky's whole life was over coming adversity... Drago, Creed,lang... never had a chance.

Rocky wouldn't have had a training advantage in my opinion. They were just to different training styles that would have produced similar results for both men (assuming that they were both expending similar energy) Like you alluded to earlier, it would just be a matter of preference.

This is true. From day one, Rocky grew up in the mean streets of Philadelphia. You could definitely tell that his roots were deep in those neighborhoods. In part 1 and 2, he was an enforcer for a loan shark or something. I remember when he said to the guy, "Ill break your thumb." I think Rocky had a lot of repressed anger and let it out in the ring!

Drago was also injecting the dreaded, S.T.E.R.O.I.D.

Rocky was natural. Yet, Rocky still won.

You don't need a defensive strategy when you're going into a fight. Its the man who is willing to put it all on the line that will win. They were two warriors going on the offense.

That's what I hope Pac Man does against Floyd. I never knew Floyd was arrested so many times for assaulting women. He is not a likeable guy. Manny is very much like a Rocky character. Its like Rocky vs. Clubber Lang (mouth wise)

You would scream out, when I got your back. The full mount would be a given then, or I might decide to mix it up, and go for a rear-naked choke. It helps if I mount you before you become too sweaty.
