My Review

As will all of my reviews I will not go into the plot

I thought Creed II was worth seeing but that was about it. The performances by Michael B Jordan and Sylvester Stallone were very good, but some things just completely bothered me about the movie especially if you know anything about boxing.

Problems with the boxing

• Michael B. Jordan is wayyyy to small to be a heavyweight. He walks around at a little over 152 pounds and reportedly he added about 20 pounds for the film. He would be somewhere between a Super Middleweight or a Light Heavyweight.
• Michael B. Jordan's technique is some of the worst of all the people that played boxers in the Rocky sagas.
• As Heavyweight Champion Adonis Creed would have millions and thus be living much better than he is.
• The same is true for Viktor Drago who would have millions for the fights that he won.
• There is NO WAY Ivan Drago would have just stopped boxing and unless he was completely broken he would be a rich man from his fights.

Rating - B (Worth the price of the ticket and a popcorn)
