Rocky IV is the story of Russia's role in professional boxing. Drago (Lundgren) comes from Russia to enter American boxing and challenges Rocky Balboa to a fight to prove that Drago is undestructable.     Apollo Creed, not convinced of Drago's strength, challenges him to an exhibition match.     This exhibition match is performed at the MGM in Las Vegas. Apollo comes out boastful and puts on a patriotism set, featuring a performance from James Brown singing "Living in America". Apollo is fatally defeated with the thundurous power of Drago's punch.     Rocky decides he must fight Drago for his country and more importanly for his close friend.     Rocky goes to Russia to train and uses natural resources for his strength. These methods include chopping wood, running up mountains, and other enduring tasks.     This is my favorite of any of the Rocky sequels. There is a true reason for Rocky to fight, defend his country and his friend. I rate the movie an 8.
