    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.

    I believe he did.
    Is it in the DVD of 'Balboa'?
    No, in some obscure interview or other....


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

    Adrean's cancer would have made quick work of any money he had...

    I know my countryman McCullough has returned after several brain bleeds and cysts, but anyone from a coma?

    Speaking of which Wayne returns shortly against Juan Ruiz!

    Always liked McCoullough but always thought him fighting after those issues was a bit irrisposible...

    Wish him good health though...

    Didn't Paulie burn up Rocky's money with shoddy investments?

    That was in the real Rocky V. Not sure how it happened if he was supposed to be in a coma, although as mentioned above, Adrian's cancer could have used up a lot of it.

    Apollo Greed had the best jab of his opponents, but it was strange that Rocky got more intelligent and less punchy after each film

    Yeah, Apollo was more old school. You don't see many boxers jab nowadays...

    I think Rocky started reading, plus he got rich (so he had to keep up appearances).

    Hell, I don't think I saw Clubber Lang jab even once.
