According to film lore, yes! Rocky was never beaten twice, always won rematches. Apollo Creed was 47-0... all knock outs. Joe Frazier was ducking him even (again, in movie lore). That makes him better than Ali, or ANYONE, think about it, 47 (47kos) and ZERO losses? Tyson? Ha! B4 I say this, I want to say I am a Tyson fan. But anytime someone really stood to Tyson, Tyson lost. Tyson may have been the KO king for a while, but he had NO heart. Anyone can beat people, but what happens when YOU are the one losing? Tyson falls down, Rocky gets motivated. OK, final answer is in real life, heck no. He'd have been danced all over like a wood floor. In Rocky movies, he would have cleaned up... like a wood floor, lol.

I don't think Rocky would last, maybe in the movies but not in real life
1. sometimes rocky would get dropped 3 times in a round and if that's the case in this day n age they would consider that a technical KO
2. there is now way he could take all of that punishment in real life and keep coming back for more the ref would stop the fight before he could even get a chance to come back
3. he had no defense whatsoever he just walked straight into all of your punches with his hands down and in real life you just can't do that, guys are too strong to just take that kinda beating and not put your gloves up if it's one thing in boxing they teach you it's put your gloves up to protect yourself!

Jerry Cooney was considered a 6'5" Rocky Balboa.
Then reality struck in the form of Larry Holmes.

no if the legend of rocky was real then yes but not the rocky from the films becuase he does not use any of the proper teqneiqes that you are tought. ex strait punches not haymakers

No. In rocky 3 clubber lang was going be played Earnie Shavers. When Stallone tried to really box with him he got his *** kicked.

no and I'll tell you why, in today's day and age Rocky would never be allowed to fight for as long as he does in the movies because they would call the fight waaay before he could mount a comeback

Absolutely not! Only if it were in a video game. Rocky was too small!
