Anyway the copy was good and I enjoyed how Rocky has a proper ending to parts of the character.
The film is more storyline based with a fight at the end which is more like watching a friday fright night bout with Teddy Atlas. Teddy Atlas was not in the film I was giving an example.
Adrian is dead. Paulie loses his job. Rocky opens a restuarant and wants one last fight with the Heavyweight champ (Antonio Traver who is a light-heavy). Rocky loses a split decision, but the crowd love him. He goes back to his normal life I guess.
I rate it 9/10 for entertainment. 1/10 In terms of the focus on boxing. What does the forum here think?

Well done for putting spoliers in the title you stupid little fuckwit
Just put it in for him, but too late for you fella 
Didn't think the film was particularly good myself - good nostalgic moments though.
Ranking them as
1 ROCKY IV
2 ROCKY III
3 ROCKY I
4 ROCKY II
5 ROCKY BALBOA
6 ROCKY V
Going against the purists that like the first 2 films best
