I had never noticed this before....it's definitely going to be my interesting fact next time I watch it with the boys, who aren't really boxing fans....found this youtube clip for anyone interested:

As for the films themselves, I really liked the first two, third is good, but not up there with the first two, and I love the fourth one, it was the only one I had on a VCR when I was a kid, so was the one that introduced me to the series. I usually watch Rocky V if I'm watching the films in sequence, and have only seen Rocky Balboa once, was entertaining but can't help thinking that if there were a Rocky 7, the brain damage would be even more visible.
