Quotes 

  • Apollo : Apollo Creed versus the Italian Stallion. Sounds like a damn monster movie.

  • Apollo : Ain't gonna be no rematch.

    Rocky : Don't want one.

  • Apollo : Stay in school and use your brain. Be a doctor, be a lawyer, carry a leather briefcase. Forget about sports as a profession. Sports make ya grunt and smell. See, be a thinker, not a stinker.

  • [Apollo is looking through a book of Philadelphia boxers] 

    Jergens : What exactly are you looking for Apollo?

    Apollo : [pointing at a profile in the book]  This is who I'm looking for. The Italian Stallion.

    Jergens : Rocky Balboa? Never heard of him.

    Apollo : Look it's the name man. The I-talian Stallion. The media will eat it up. Now who discovered America? An Italian right? What better way to get it on than with one of its descendants?

    Apollo's Trainer : He's a southpaw. I don't want you messing with southpaws. They do everything backwards

    Apollo : Southpaw nothing. I'll drop him in three. Apollo Creed meets the Italian Stallion. Now that sounds like a damn monster movie.

  • Apollo's Trainer : Hey, champ, you oughta come and look at this boy you're gonna fight on TV. It looks like he means business.

    Apollo : Yeah, yeah. I mean business too.

  • Apollo : You'd better stop this fight! You ain't nothin' but a bum!

  • Apollo : Come here, Rock. My main man. Rocky, ain't you Italian?

    Rocky : Yeah, I'm Italian.

    TV Commentator : Now what does that mean?

    Apollo : That means, if he can't fight, I'll bet he can cook.

    [everyone laughs] 

  • Apollo : Without a ranked contender, what this fight needs is a novelty. This is the land of opportunity, right? So, Apollo Creed, on January first, gives a local underdog fighter an opportunity. A snow-white underdog, and I'm gonna put his face on this poster with me. And I'll tell you why. Because I'm sentimental. A lot of other people in this country are just as sentimental and there's nothing they'd like better than to see Apollo Creed give a local Philadelphia boy a shot at the greatest title in the world on this country's biggest birthday. Now that's the way I see it and that's the way it's gonna be.

    Jergens : Apollo, I like it. It's very American.

    Apollo : No, Jergens. It's very smart.
