Both the loss and no knockout is from Rocky) Apollo and Rocky used to be rivals (Rocky 1-2 era) but after Rocky beat him, they came to respect and care for each other.

Apollo is known for being a showman and very confident (Sometimes arrogant, especially against Drago).

Captain Ivan Drago
Ivan Drago (Or Captain Drago as he is ranked in the Red Army) is the antagonist, a Soviet gold medalist Olympic boxer. He stands at a staggering 6'5 and weighs about 261 lbs and at the age of 35. Drago's amateur record was 100-0 (100 KO) and then his professional record was 31-0 (31 KO). Drago is cold, indifferent, and neutral. His punches registered at 2150 PSI which is about triple a normal heavy weight boxer's. Drago was forced to take steroids by Soviet officials and coaches since he was more of a tool for the Soviet government.
