- (Mickey) Come back here!

- Come on!

- Out of the way, worms! I'm comin' up.

Come on, come on!

All right, Thunderlips. Break it up!

No choking. No choking.

Paulie, don't!

I don't sweat you.

(booing)

Hang on there, kid.

How d'you like it?

I don't need this.

Rocky hanging on like a bull terrier.

Now he's going for the stranglehold.

(chanting) Rocky! Rocky!

The body!

(cheering)

Knock his block off!

No-o-o-o!

(Dennis) It's unbelievable!

Rocky actually did it!

- The human skyscraper is out of the ring!

- (bell rings)

Right. That's it! Time is up.

Ladies and gentlemen... we have a draw.

Thank you for attending

the annual charity match...

...between the Italian Stallion,

Rocky Balboa...

...and Thunderlips, the Ultimate Male.

See you next year. Thank God.

- Are you all right?

- Yeah, pretty good.

Good match.

- Why'd you get so crazy on me out there?

- That's the name of the game.

While you're still calm,

can we get that Polaroid together?

- Yeah, sure.

- Adrian, come on over here.

- My wife Adrian, my kid... Thunderlips.

- Ow! That hurt!

That's all right.

You know, sometimes charity really hurts.

And Pinocchio told a lie, you see,

and his nose started growing real big.

- Why didn't his ears grow?

- I don't know. I didn't write the story.

- Are you fighting again?

- No, I don't plan on fighting today.

- Promise?

- Promise. Definitely. I promise.

- Good, I like you here.

- Yeah? I like being here.

Are you gettin' hungry?

You want some breakfast?

- Some Wheaties? What are Wheaties?

- Champions.

- Breakfast of what? Champions!

- (honks horn)

(Rocky) The father bear says

"Somebody's been sleepin' in my bed."

The little bear said "Somebody's been

sleepin' in my bed, and there she is."

He pulls back the covers, exposing her

to the, you know, public. See?

Eat your cereal before it sinks.

- What happened to Goldilocks?

- I'm not exactly sure.

- Busted for trespassing and got 30 days.

- That's real nice, Paulie.

Rocky. Rocky, the car is waiting.

- Go ahead. You guys better go.

- Be a good boy now.

We'll have a fun time, me and the kid.

(Paulie) Mrs Stallion,

you almost look pretty good.

Oh. Thank you, Paulie.

Don't give the kid any beer.

And, Paulie, don't take him to the track.

- How you doin', Mick?

- Pretty good.

Now we got a problem in the seventh.

(# Rocky theme)

Whatever happened to them

quiet, tender moments?

(cheering and whistling)

Thank you. Thank you, one and all.

Every once in a while, a person

comes along who defies the odds...

...who defies logic...

and fulfils an incredible dream.

On behalf of all the citizens of

Philadelphia...

...and those touched

by your accomplishments...
