Creed 3 hit the theatres this week. And Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons was one of the first ones to get the popcorn. The NFL star left a stellar review on Twitter, one that actor Michael B. Jordan would be very pleased to read.
Jordan is very much involved with the proceedings of the NFL world and has even played with some iconic names. So this review coming from a Cowboys star and a future NFL great is sure to put a smile on his face. Fans were eagerly waiting for the seventh instalment of the Rocky franchise. And Parsons provided the necessary motivation.

Parsons and Co ended their NFL season in premature fashion after a 19-12 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the divisional round of the playoffs this year. However, after his second Pro Bowl selection, Micah is taking the off-season very seriously, catching the Creed 3 premiere on the first day of its release.
The third Creed movie is the first one in the entire franchise without Sylvester ‘Rocky’ Stallone, who served in a coaching role in the post-Rocky instalments. However, Michael B. Jordan, who acted and also made his directorial debut with this movie, didn’t let the audience feel Stallone’s absence. This was his show.
“Creed 3 was amazing,” Micah Parsons tweeted.
Seeing it Friday. Glad to hear its good. Huge fan of all the Rocky and Creed movies.

Fans were hyped to catch the earliest show after Micah’s five-star review.
Jordan will have to get some on-field action with Micah
The NFL World still remembers Odell Beckham Jr.’s incredible one-handed wonder catch from an Eli Manning throw. And it etched a special memory for lifelong New York Giants fan Michael B. Jordan. So much so that the actor recreated the iconic play with the help of the original 2x Super Bowl champion quarterback.

However, a movie cameo is not the first thing on Parsons’ mind. Alongside Trevon Diggs and DeMarcus Lawrence, Parsons stands as a crucial piece of a dominant Dallas defense. And the pass rusher has already made promises of a Super Bowl next year to end Dallas’ 27-year Lombardi drought.
