Rocky III

Rocky III - A Boxer's Redemption Rocky Balboa has it all - the title, the fame, and the wealth. But when a hungry new contender named Clubber Lang challenges him in the ring, Rocky suffers his first defeat. In the aftermath of the loss, Rocky's mentor Mickey dies unexpectedly; Clubber Lang gloats, and the public turns against Rocky Balboa - the man they once called "The Italian Stallion" became a lousy has-been. But Rocky can't shake the feeling that he still has what it takes. Despite his reluctance to train again, he turns to his former adversary, Apollo Creed - the only boxer who ever gave him a tough fight - to prepare for a rematch with Clubber Lang. The road back to glory won't be easy. Can Rocky regain his edge and prove that he still deserves to be a champion? With a star-studded cast, including Sylvester Stallone, Talia Shire, Burt Young, Carl Weathers, and Mr. T, Rocky III is a thrilling comeback story that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final bell.
