So, has anyone seen it yet? I saw it earlier today I found it surprisingly good, considering Sylvester is getting into his later years and it being a boxing movie. But being a big fan of all the Rocky movies, I'd say it lives up to the name "Rocky". However, if Sylvester decides to make a new Rambo movie, I may have to draw the line

Antonio Tarver, the current world heavyweight champion plays Mason Dixon, the fictional heavyweight champion. This is just me, but it seems that the fight in Rocky Balboa is loosely based around the fight that took place between Antonio Tarver and Roy Jones Jr. Roy, an amazing boxer, although past his prime (Not nearly so much as Rocky) but in a fight, he went far beyond what anyone expected. The second time around, that is I do not know if it was intentional, but that is what I related it to.

Just a tidbit of information, I know Roy Jones Jr. He is from the same town as me and used to have a gym here. We invited him over for dinner one night and he accepted, we had spaghetti if I recall. I still see him at the Groovin' Noovin's every now and then.

He's in incredible shape for his age, but the plot is ridiculous. Rocky should have died a long time ago.
