Your Wednesday Night Fight Scene, 18 August 2009

Arguably the greatest scene in the Rocky franchise's history, this brawl from Rocky V is the defining moment in this character's life. Never before has Rocky's ruthless pride and bleak stubbornness been demonstrated so clearly and effectively on film. He simply won't let himself be punked out by some hotshot, smart-mouthed, young boxer. Rocky has worked too hard, fought too many battles, built up quite large muscles, garnered a fine taste for exotic cheeses, and here his threshold has been reached. Tommy Gunn, you are about to get whooped.
