Good, but one glaring choreographic error

Rating: 7/10 (23 August 2007)

Though older, how is it choreographed that a former world champion cannot dodge or block a single telegraphed punch? Drago threw no jabs, just lifted up his hand and punched with about a two second delay. Dodging at least one punch would have made the fight more believable and becoming of a great fighter like Creed.
The fight also would have been more realistic if Drago had thrown fewer punches and simply "caught" Creed in a bad situation. Anyone with half a heart would have just run in the ring and stopped the fight a long time before, despite what Creed had said.
Also, it would have been nice to give him a new outfit. Showing up in the same outfit that he wore 9 years ago at he and Rocky's first fight is a bit unbecoming as well.
Apollo Creed is the true anchor of the Rocky series whose character development means the most to the series.
