7 scenes Apollo Apollo [reading fan mail]
Mary Anne, you listen to this. "You didn't beat nobody and anybody who knows boxing knows the fight was fixed." This one came from London. "You call yourself the champ? You're a fake! The fight was a fake. Go kill yourself!"
Mary Anne Creed
Wouldn't you rather play with the children than read hate mail?
Apollo "How much did you get to carry that bum for 15 rounds? You are a disgrace to your people."
Mary Anne Creed
Why can't you ignore it?
Apollo Are you serious?
Apollo Do you think I beat him the last time?
You got the decision.
Apollo Man I won! But I didn't beat him!
Apollo Now who's that? Al Capone?
[after round 1 of rematch with Balboa who is fighting right handed]
Alright, did the switching bother ya?
Apollo Nothin' bothered me man, nothin' bothered me.
Well then you should of had 'em! Now don't let up on this man. This man is dangerous. This man is DANGEROUS!
Apollo This man is dangerous... I'm dangerous! I'm dangerous!

Good luck.
Reporter
Apollo, a lot of people say that you lost the first fight-- A victim of the southpaw jinx. Did fighting a left-hander throw you off?
Apollo Southpaw jinx nothin'! Last time, I took the fight too lightly, and this man was just plain lucky. But this time, this time, you all will see the real Apollo Creed. The whole world's gonna see the real Apollo Creed. Lightning fast and hard to catch. No playin', no jivin', just business.
Reporter
Rocky, do you think you have a chance this time against Apollo?
I don't know. He looks pretty mad. Uh, me and Mick, we're gonna try our best.
His lungs he's gonna punch out.
Apollo Now who's that? Al Capone?
I don't sweat you.
