Rocky (Sylvester Stallone) loses the fight to Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) but learns that Apollo thought he did a hell of a job. The defeated Rocky marries Adrian (Talia Shire), buys a sports car and is a hero in his Philadelphia neighborhood. Doctors advise Rocky that his eye injury could lead to blindness if he fights again - but the victorious Apollo Creed has a problem. He's being ridiculed for letting such a bum go the distance with him and wants a rematch with Rocky. (Showtime)
