    I reckon the ref steps in at the 12 second mark.

    0 seconds.

    Balboa would've never been sanctioned, because he was crap.

    8 seconds, I'd step in wave the fight off with emotional face like 'i couldn't see you take no more kid'.

    Incredible head movement from Rocky.

    How much do we reckon he weighed in that? 160?

    I think he's 5'9"

    Id say about 180 too if you compare him to Arthur Abraham at 168 hes clearly more bulked.

    Phenominal body in that film though for a guy north of 40

    Wow you might be right well it says in Rocky 3 he weighed between 155-159 with bodyfat of 3% is that possible?

    the first 15 secs remind me of the Calzaghe-Manfredo stoppage! Joe throwing leather like a wildman in all directions & Manfredo on the ropes rolling with the punches & not throwing much back but not taking any big shots & BANG britref Terry O'Connor jumps in, beergut first.

    So theres the real answer, britref would have officialy taken 15 seconds to stop the contest:deal

    If Rocky was the Brit, Drago would be stopped in the second on that cut.

    Actually Balboa's eye injury would mean he would not of got a fight in this Country, from the 80s onwards...

    ****ing pair of powder puff punching pansies. lol. Gave the soviet ref a lot of credit for not stopping it early. How many times did Rocky's glove hit the canvas?

    The fight wouldn't be sanctioned because Drago would of been DQ'd for pushing away the ref in the Apollo fight!
