In 1976 the world stood still when the then Undisputed Heavyweight Champion, Apollo Creed, experienced his first knocked down in his career, in a gimmick match against an unknown semi-pro boxer. What resulted was 15 gruelling round of boxing where Rocky Balboa took the champ (and himself) to his limits in what is considered one of the greatest upset in sports history. This is history of the early life of Rocky Balboa and the events the lead up to Super Fight 1: Balboa vs. Creed.
