They'll also examine the financial woes that plague the Balboa family and the complex mentor-student relationship between Rocky and Tommy "The Machine" Gunn - and of course young Robert.

Join hosts Logan and Ty as they step into the ring to break down the film’s long and difficult journey to the big screen. From studio skepticism to Stallone’s unwavering determination, Rocky Balboa wasn’t just another sequel—it was a passion project that almost never happened. They'll explore the film’s underappreciated emotional depth, the themes of aging and legacy, and how it successfully brought the franchise back to its roots.

Beyond the behind-the-scenes battles, they’ll also discuss the film’s powerful training montage, the emotional weight of Rocky’s return, and the modernized yet nostalgic soundtrack that helped set the tone for this comeback story. Was Rocky Balboa a perfect farewell? Or does it deserve even more recognition than it gets?

Ivan Drago himself, Dolph Lundgren almost didn't want to come back for this one until he got a text from Sly? Who knew! What about the cut hospital fight scene? Learn a bunch of behind the scenes trivia as we go the distance and cover Creed II - from Bianca's pregnancy, to the return of Max Kellerman the king of exposition, and does it live up to a sequel to Rocky IV?

Nope — it’s GRUDGE MATCH (2013), the long-awaited (?) heavyweight bout between Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro. Two cinematic legends. One final fight. Absolutely no reason for it to exist... except that we needed it to.

Is it canon? Absolutely not.

While the theatrical release took a hit for its 90s-style editing,  it is rumored that director John G. Avildsen was so frustrated with the studio’s final cut that he eventually leaked his own personal version online—even uploading it to YouTube—just to show the world his original vision. This 'director’s cut' swaps out the hip-hop soundtrack for Bill Conti’s classic score, changes the history of Little Marie, and restores a much-debated spiritual/faith element: Mickey appearing as a literal ghost in the alleyway to cheer Rocky on during the final street fight. It’s a fascinating look at the movie we almost got. But that all begs the question does this make the movie better than the one that we got in 1990? 

Get ready as we take a look at behind the scenes interviews, breakdown the differences in the variations of the film, and did they make Rocky... umm... more slow in this version? If so, why!?!?!
