Heated discussion?
Drago kills him in the ring.
Only reason Rocky lost to Lang was because he wasn't training seriously because he was "on top of the world".
Drago! No contest.
The final fight of Rocky didn't even last that long. Rocky tired him out, then took him out.
Drago was a machine! Rocky only won it out of pure strength of will.

I say Drago wins. It didnt take long for Rocky to tire out Clubber in the ring and it seems if he didnt put you down fast that he got tired fast.
That being said Drago is so big and strong i dont think Clubber could finish him off fast enough and basicly by round 5-6 would just be out of steam completely.
ya know, as someone who hasnt seen any rocky outside of the one with drago. i'd say he wins, dolph just made him a monster, a pinnacle of power that rocky had to beat. In universe, i don't see any human beating drago in a boxing match, outside of rocky.

I see myself as witty, urbane, highly talented, hugely successful with a keen sense of style. Plus of course my own special brand of modesty.

I think even Mr. T would pity the fool who bet on him in that fight.

Actually, it was more that he went to the head. Drago was so tall people went for his stomach only to find out it was a no win situation. Once Rocky starts going up top it he completely turns the tide. Oh, Drago still beats Lange though.

Which was a subversion of the original concept. Rocky was based on the real life champion Rocky Marciano, who specialized in body blows. The man could break ribs with a two-inch punch.

Also...MMA vs Boxing is a futile argument.

And as the title was Clubber vs Ivan. I'd figure you take what was portrayed in the movies as the go.
That said, even going with Clubber going for head shots on Ivan, I'd put the money on Ivan.
Ivan wasn't exactly slow, he also had (for the movies) the hardest hitting punches ever seen.
I'd still say Rocky beat Ivan due to a lot of willpower. The headshots wore Ivan down, but Ivan himself didn't wear out fast, and Clubber was about taking you down fast.
Fighters like Rocky and Ivan would get Clubber worn out, even more so as time went on and Clubber let his anger get the best of him and he would try to end the fight.
Ivan was a challenge to Rocky. Clubber only beat Rocky the first time, due to Rocky not even trying (training wasn't taken serious, then Mickey died).

Their reply didn't look like hurt feelings to me so much as a recognition of non-humour where humour was, perhaps, intended. The childish tone of your response, however, seems quite peevish.
