Rocky IV Quotes

Rocky: Champ, look this fight's over. I gotta stop it.
Apollo: No, no.
Rocky: Look, you can't do no more out there!
Apollo: I'm here to fight.
Rocky: He's killing ya. I gotta stop this thing.
Apollo: I'm here to fight, promise me you're not gonna stop this fight.

Commentator #1: Boy I'll tell ya that was a pulverizing round for the ex-champion.
Commentator #2 in Las Vegas: Hey guys, Ivan Drago is definitely for real!
Apollo: [His last words] I want you to promise me you're not gonna stop this fight, no matter what. No matter what!

Nicoli Koloff: We fight in Soviet Union or we fight nowhere. Why don't you ask Drago's wife why she is afraid? Tell them.
Ludmilla: I'm afraid for my husband's life. We have threats of violence everywhere. You call him a killer. He is a professional fighter... not a killer. You have this belief that you are better than us. You have this belief that this

country is so very good, and we are so very bad.

Nicoli Koloff: [at the Creed-Drago press conference] You are not very realistic, are you, Mr. Creed?
Apollo: Now who is this guy? Where did you come from?
Nicoli Koloff: You can box, yes. But you are far too old to think that you can beat Drago.
Apollo: Is that a fact?
Nicoli Koloff:

Yes. And it could be a painful one!

Rocky Jr.: [while playing with his robot] When can I learn to fight?
Rocky: [while washing his car] I fight so you don't have to fight because I want you to use your head for something other than a punching bag like I do.
Rocky Jr.: Your head doesn't look like a punching bag.
Rocky: No? That's nice, thanks a

lot.
Rocky Jr.: [jokingly] It looks like a catcher's mitt.
Rocky: [Amused] So, you're a wise guy now?

Rocky: [Watching footage of the their previous boxing matches against each other] You know this fight with you and the Russian? You think it's not you against him?
Apollo: If it's not against him, whose it against?
Rocky: You think it's you against you? I'm speaking the truth here
Apollo: I don't think I want

to hear this
Rocky: Look, you're a great fighter no doubt about that but we've got to face the facts too, maybe you don't want to believe it but maybe the show's over
Apollo: That's easy for you to say you're still on top what happens when you're on top then what? Where do we go? Because we sure as hell can't be born again

Rocky: I know we can't be born again but let's face it we've got to change
Apollo: I don't want to change I like who I am
Rocky: I like who you are too but look at that
[to the footage]
Rocky: you don't want to believe this but that's not us anymore we can't do it the way we did it before we're

changing, turning into regular people
Apollo: No maybe you think you're changing but you can't change who you really are and you forget all this money you have around you because it doesn't change a thing we don't even have a choice

Apollo: [In the dining room] His just an amateur, his big and stronger but his clumsy I know I can beat him
Adrian: Why do you want to fight him?
Apollo: Let's just say it's something I believe in
Adrian: [to Rocky Jr] Go finish your homework
Rocky Jr.: Ok, later dad later uncle Paulie

later Apollo.
Paulie: [to as he Rocky Jr. leaves] later big man
Paulie: Don't you think people expect Rocky to whack this bum out first?
Apollo: Yeah and he will this is just an exhibition bout, its kids' stuff
Adrian: What's the purpose? What's it worth getting hurt at this point in your life?

Adrian: I don't want that chump coming over here with all that hype, they're trying to make us look bad, they tried every other way, with Rock's help we'd get great media coverage and make them look bad for a change
Adrian: I think it's wrong
Apollo: No it's never been right
Adrian: You're a great fighter but

you've been retired for nearly five years don't you think it's time to start thinking about something else? How much more can you take? Either of you?
