    What do you mean?

    It is weird how is brain damage seemed to have gone in Rocky VI even though the doctors had said it was irreversable (although time could have had an effect on this). But I did notice no clips whatsoever were used from Rocky V like there were from the others. No mention of Tommy Gunn, etc.

    And it was also a flaw when you could see the age difference in his son between Rocky IV and Rocky V.

    That's kind of strange though to say that V never happened.

    It's simple, Rocky V sucked. It would be much easier to act like it never happened then it would to work around that ridiculous movie. Rocky Balboa was great, just as great as I and II. I had a thought but kind of lost it as I typed that. But yeah, it was the only sequel with no mention or clips of the movie before it. That's intentional.

    He could say that V was a figment of his imagination while in the coma post rocky IV... His brain damage caused the illusions

    But wait! How does he explain the fact that he still lost all his money? While he was doing better than he was later in V, he still wasn't rich like he was in IV.

    No, in some obscure interview or other....


    As for the money, would't he have spent it all on hospital bills etc.?

    In the ton of media that Sly did before Rocky Balboa came out, he said that the original doctor analysis was that he had brain damage, but since he only went for one opinion, it could've simply been a severe concussion.
