Rocky

The Rocky franchise follows boxer Rocky Balboa's rise from underdog to champion, and later, Adonis Creed's journey to honor his father, Apollo Creed. The films chronicle Rocky's several rises and falls, and both it and the Creed series deal with their titular character's internal and external struggles both in the ring and out.
