Plot – Rocky Balboa wins a match against Apollo Creed, the heavyweight world champion, and many of the public and reporters doubt the outcome. However, being left with a broken nose and a battered left eye, Rocky takes the advice of his aging coach Mickey, retiring from boxing. He marries Adriana and invests the money he won in a house. His wife makes him happy by giving him a child. However, Balboa has been forced to look for a permanent job but, having dropped out of school, he finds all roads barred for a job as a clerk and has to accept humiliating and unprofitable favors. Apollo Creed, who was hailed "champion of champions" and is still troubled by the outcome of the match fought the year before, now wants to take advantage of Balboa's situation. Positive that Rocky is now morally and physically shattered and without training, Apollo challenges Rocky to a re-match in which he is sure to defeat him for good.
