became a leg-breaker for some cheap, second-rate loan shark. Rocky It's a living. Reporter Why did you agree to fight a man who has virtually no chance of winning? Apollo Look, if history proves one thing, American history proves that everybody's got
a chance to win. Didn't you guys ever hear of Valley Forge or Bunker Hill?
