Adrian : Rocky?
Rocky : Yeah?
Adrian : You alright?
Rocky : Yeah I'm fine
Adrian : Why'd you do it?
Rocky : I just gotta do what I gotta do.
Adrian : You don't have to do anything
Rocky : No, Adrian, I do and I gotta leave this place too.
Adrian : So where are you going?
Rocky : They said they're gonna let me train in Russia and I just want to be somewhere where I ain't gonna think about nothing except him.
Adrian : Rocky, give it some time. Don't do this a lot of people live with hurt.
Rocky : A lot of people don't have a choice, Adrian, I do.
Adrian : And for that you're willing to lose everything?
Rocky : Adrian this isn't everything. The house, the cars and all the stuff we got. That ain't everything. There's a lot more than this, Adrian.
Adrian : Before there were reasons to fight I could understand but I don't understand this. Even if you win what have you won, Apollo's still gone. Why can't you change your thinking everybody else does?
Rocky : Cause I'm a fighter! That's how I'm made, Adrian. That's what you married. We can't change what we are.
Adrian : [Softly] Yes you can.
Rocky : We can't change anything, Adrian. All we can do is just go with what we are.
Adrian : You can't go with what you are you've read the papers, it's suicide! You've seen him you know how strong he is! YOU CAN'T WIN!
Rocky : Oh, Adrian. Adrian always tells the truth. No maybe I can't win. Maybe the only thing I can do is just take everything he's got. But to beat me he's gonna have to kill me, and to kill me he's gotta have the guts to stand in front of me, and to do that he's gotta be willin to die himself. I don't know if he's ready to do that. I don't know. I don't know.

Apollo : [In the dining room] His just an amateur, his big and stronger but his clumsy I know I can beat him
Adrian : Why do you want to fight him?
Apollo : Let's just say it's something I believe in
Adrian : [to Rocky Jr] Go finish your homework
Rocky Jr. : Ok, later dad later uncle Paulie later Apollo.
Apollo : [to as he Rocky Jr. leaves] later big man
Paulie : Don't you think people expect Rocky to whack this bum out first?
Apollo : Yeah and he will this is just an exhibition bout, its kids' stuff
Adrian : What's the purpose? What's it worth getting hurt at this point in your life?
Apollo : I don't want that chump coming over here with all that hype, they're trying to make us look bad, they tried every other way, with Rock's help we'd get great media coverage and make them look bad for a change
Adrian : I think it's wrong
Apollo : No it's never been right
Adrian : You're a great fighter but you've been retired for nearly five years don't you think it's time to start thinking about something else? How much more can you take? Either of you?
