Mary Ann Creed: Who are you fighting?
Adonis "Donnie" Johnson Creed: Conlan.
Mary Ann: [surprised] Did you say Conlan?
Donnie: Yeah, Pretty Ricky.
Mary Ann: Adonis have you lost your mind? Do you know who this man is? That is too much reach. Too many years of experience, this man will break every bone in your body -
Donnie: Look mama, listen, all right I didn't call to argue. I've lost some weight. Been in the gym, training hard. Watching a lot of tapes.
Mary Ann: Well I hope those tapes serve you well in the ring, honey, when the man is pounding you face to face -
Donnie: Listen if you tell me not to do it I won't. I had a name. They're just telling me that this fight is depending on it, so I want your blessing.
Mary Ann: The name is nothing, I don't care about the name, I care about you. But these people, they care about money. It's a blood sport and they will use you in any way they can... and when they're done, it's your family that has to come and pick up the pieces and clean up the mess. You cannot beat this man! But you know what? You and Rocky, go ahead, do whatever it is you want to do.
