The sixth installment of the Rocky franchise starring Sylvester Stallone hit theaters in 2006 entitled simply "Rocky Balboa." Many thought that a movie about a now sexagenarian Balboa (Stallone) who gets a shot to fight again against the current heavyweight champion to be far-fetched at best. The movie surprised most naysayers upon its release providing movie goers with an uplifting message about life, struggles and love.
In the scene below, Rocky's son confronts him about excepting an exhibition match against outspoken champ Mason "The Line" Dixon (Antonio Tarver). His son asks his father to get out of the limelight and allow him to shine for once. Rocky gives one of the best speeches in movie history.
The Theme: "It's not about how hard you can hit! It's about how hard you can get hit and get back up!" Enjoy
