If boxing movies were epics, the ‘Rocky’ series would undoubtedly take the place of Odessey. In fact, the main character of the series, Rocky Balboa, played by Hollywood superstar, Sylvester Stallone, is widely regarded as a demigod among onscreen boxers. The Creed series, which branched out of the ‘Rocky’ series, saw Stallone reprising the role of the iconic boxer. It was recently reported that he will not be coming back as Balboa in the third installment of the series. Meanwhile, Stallone opened up about his experience acting in Creed 2.
