Well you better believe it cause he is.

I think being a fan takes away enjoyment

I enjoyed bellew in it. Just plsying himself down to a T. and when Ward challenged Adonis I was laughing explaining to my friend that he is one of the best fighters in the world

I would have liked for them to build up the fight with him going up the rankings but I guess no time

Creed getting up in the 11th pissed me off. Big time. I physically showed exasperation from that in the cinema.

Look forward to the sequel

Lol.... I always thought he was an odd choice as its true his body isn't Hollywood ripped. Also his scouse accent... surely the Yanks find it hard to understand? Do they use subtitles?

Film was good, no epic but a bit of fun.
From what people tell me those of you watching illegal streams almost definitely haven't seen the actual film.

I thought it was a good, watchable, typical Rocky film and really hope that they do a sequel or two and get Bellew back.

Maybe a rematch and then they become friends. Then Bellew takes a fight against an absolute monster and gets badly hurt. Then Creed trains really hard in some snow and gains vengeance.

They should probably leave it there then.

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER



Presumably there will be 2 more sequels at least.
Creed 2 - Conlan is convicted, Creed wins the title against Wheeler.
Creed 3 - Conlan is released and wants his title back.

Did he not get him the right fights?
move him too slowly?
Negotiate him a 60/40 split in his big title fight?
Let Camp Eddie stick him on an unmeritted PPV, that he subsequently stank out despite building up a big rivalry story with Creed?

I watched it. Kind of enjoyed it. Was sad that my favourite from the Rocky films, Paulie wasnt in it....and had died.I didn't think Michael B Jordan was a particularly good actor and couldn't warm to him.

Overall the film felt a bit like a made for TV film and it tried to stuff too many storylines into the script.
