This film is closer to life and reality than the upper part. Rocky is facing an economic crisis. He is not suitable for advertising. The meat factory has laid off employees. His education is not enough. He is only suitable for boxing. Why did the people he met and even an unknown person in the boxing gym dared to taunt? It was because he had the ability to beat the boxing champion and stood on the top of the world but chose to do nothing. But Rocky and Yardrian are also in love. Rocky chose to retire for his wife. His wife was afraid that Rocky would be injured, and he didn't need the luxury accessories that Rocky bought. He repeatedly emphasized that you are sure to buy them. She even went to work in a pet shop when she was pregnant.

Rocky’s coach: Very good. Although his mouth is strict, he puts honor and pride on Rocky, more like a father. Rocky’s sentence when he married him: I found two potential fighters in the boxing gym to express my inner loss, but respect Rocky’s choice. When Rocky found him, he said you can't hit your eyes anymore. But when the boxing champion provoke Rocky on TV, the coach knew that if Rocky backed down, his life would be ruined, so he went to wake Rocky. Left-handed tactics are also very successful.

Boxing champion: In fact, he was woken up after almost losing to Rocky in the first game. He has been arrogant and has suffered, but he has also found his true opponent, an opponent worthy of his all-out efforts. It is worthy of his respect, so in the hospital, Rocky asked him whether he used his full strength. He chose to tell the truth, but the pride of the boxing champion made him want to win Rocky upright. In theory, he can listen to the opinions of his agent and find others to fight him. He is still the champion, and there is still risk in fighting against Rocky. But he is a real fighter, eager to fight Rocky, so he stimulates Rocky to fight with him, even if the score is leading in the game, he still gives up defense and Rocky in the last sentence, because he knows that even if he wins by scores, it is for him. It's not a real victory. He can win but can never defeat Rocky, so he should completely defeat Rocky, which is also very respectable.

Brother: The friendship with Rocky is also very good. When Rocky wanted to sell him the car, he knew that Rocky was difficult, so when he drove away, he said that if you need a car, come to me at any time, and Rocky will drive afterwards. It was his car. When Rocky was training, he saw that his sister was distracting him, so he went to do ideological work, but his method was a bit aggressive and his temper was a bit more grumpy.

The most critical point for Rocky to win is Yadri'an's phrase to win, which gives Rocky the greatest motivation, just like going to the scene in person to cheer for the first movie. The greatest love is not to protect him for fear of being hurt, but to support everything that he does not hesitate to hesitate.
