=== Rocky Balboa ===
{{quote|
* [[Badass]]
Line 7:
* [[Berserk Button]]: Clubber Lang's hitting on Adrian.
** And later Tommy Gunn's punching Paulie.
{{quote|
* [[Book Dumb]]: Although by the end of ''II'' he's writing poetry for a comatose Adrian and by ''III'' he's clearly come far in his acting ability, as is evidenced by the many successful commercials he appears in.
* [[Captain Ersatz]]: Half Rocky Marciano, half Joe Frazier, and inspired by a Chuck Wepner fight.
Line 21:
* [[Made of Iron]]: How else do you describe a guy who goes for 15 rounds with a World Champion and still comes out strong?
** Drago said it best:

{{quote|
* [[Arrogant Kung Fu Guy]]
Line 95:
=== Ivan Drago ===
{{quote|
* [[Beyond the Impossible]]: His punching strength is over two times the average psi for a boxer, and close to three at tops. Rocky seemingly takes his blows way easier than Apollo's or Lang's, despite the fact that Drago's blows should theoretically make his head explode. And Rocky does this for a whole fifteen rounds.
Line 113:
=== Tommy "The Machine" Gunn ===
{{quote|
* [[The Danza]]
Line 122:
=== Mason "The Line" Dixon ===
{{quote|
* [[Boring Invincible Hero]]: At the start, he's unpopular with fans due to a string of easy, quick wins.
