Creed chooses Rocky Balboa, an Italian-American journeyman boxer who primarily fights in small gyms and works as a shark collector, based on his nickname "The Italian Stallion.

" Rocky meets with promoter George Jergens, after being told that Creed is looking for local sparring partners.

 Rocky was initially hesitant, but eventually agreed to the fight, which would pay him $150,000. Rocky undergoes several weeks of unconventional training, such as using sides of beef as punching bags.

Rocky was later contacted by Mickey Goldmill, a former bantamweight fighter turned trainer who Rocky frequented at the gym, about further training.

 Rocky was initially unwilling, as Mikey had never shown much interest in helping him before and considered him a wasted talent, but Rocky eventually accepted the offer.

Rocky begins building a romantic relationship with Adrienne Benigno, a shy woman who works part-time at the J&M Tropical Fish pet store. 

Adrian's brother and Rocky's best friend, Paulie, helps Rocky get a date with his sister and offers to work as his corner man in the fight.

 Paulie is jealous of Rocky's success, but Rocky appeases him by agreeing to advertise the meatpacking company where Paulie works as part of the upcoming fight.

 Rocky trains intensely for the championship fight, while Apollo doesn't care about the match and puts more effort into the promotion than training. 

The night before the match, Rocky visited Team Spectrum and began to lose confidence.

 He admits to Adrian that he doesn't think he can win, but he strives to go the distance against Creed, which no other fighter has done, to prove himself to everyone.

On New Year's Day, the fight takes place as Creed makes a dramatic entrance dressed as George Washington and then Uncle Sam. 

Taking advantage of his overconfidence, Rocky knocked him down in the first round, the first time Creed had been knocked down. 

Humbled and concerned, Creed takes Rocky seriously for the rest of the fight, though his arrogance never completely vanishes. 

The fight continues for fifteen rounds, with both fighters sustaining various injuries: Rocky, who suffered blows to the head and swollen eyes, needs to cut off his right eyelid to restore his sight, while Apollo, who suffers from internal bleeding and a broken rib. , struggling to breathe.

 As the fight ends, Creed's superior skill is countered by Rocky's seemingly limitless ability to absorb punches and his stubborn refusal to get down.

 When the final bell rang, both fighters embraced each other, promising each other that there would be no rematch.

The fight was very well received by sports broadcasters and the audience

. Rocky repeatedly calls out to Adrian, who runs while Paulie distracts security to help her get into the ring. 

While Jergens declares Creed the winner by split decision, Rocky and Adrian embrace and declare their love for each other, not caring about the outcome of the fight.

Sylvester Stallone wrote the script for Rocky in three and a half days, shortly after watching the championship bout between Muhammad Ali and Chuck Wepner take place at Richfield Coliseum in Richfield, Ohio, on March 24, 1975. 

The 15th round of the bout was for Ali, and not many expected it to last.

 In this period. Although the match motivated Stallone to start working on Rocky, he denied that Wepner provided any inspiration for the script. 

Other inspirations for the film may have included the characteristics of real-life boxers Rocky Marciano and Joe Frazeras as well as the Rocky Graziano autobiography Somebody There Likes Me and the film of the same name.

 Wepner sued Stallone, eventually settling for an undisclosed sum.

Henry Winkler, who co-starred with Stallone in "The Lords of Flatbush" and later appeared as Arthur Fonzarelli on ABC's "Happy Days,

" said he took the script to network executives. They expressed interest in turning it into a made-for-TV movie and had already purchased the script but insisted that someone else rewrite it.

 Upon hearing the news, Stallone begged Winkler not to let ABC change the book, so Winkler went back to the executives and offered to return the money for the rights. While ABC initially refused, Winkler said he was able to use his status as one of their biggest stars at the time to convince them to sell the rights again.

At the time, Film Artists Management Enterprises (FAME), a joint venture between Hollywood talent agents Craig T. Romar and Larry Kubiak, represented Stallone.

 He presented his script to Romar and Kubik, who immediately saw the potential for turning it into a film.

 They marketed the script to several Hollywood producers and studios but were repeatedly rejected because Stallone insisted on playing the lead role. Eventually, they were able to secure a meeting with Winkler-Chartoff Productions

 After repeated negotiations with Romar and Kubiak, Winkler and Chartoff agreed to a contract that would see Stallone as the writer and also star in the lead role of Rocky.

United Artists liked Stallone's script and saw it as a vehicle for an established star like Robert Redford, Ryan O'Neal, Burt Reynolds or James Caan. Stallone's agents insisted that Stallone portray the title character, to the point of issuing an ultimatum.

 Stallone later said he would never have forgiven himself if the film had succeeded with someone else in the lead. He also knew that producers Irwin Winkler and Robert Chartoff's contract with the studio enabled them to "greenlight" the project if the budget remained low enough.

 The producers also insured any potential losses with their big-budget entry, New York, New York (whose eventual losses were covered by the success of Rocky). The film's 

production budget ended up being $1,075,000, with another $100,000 spent on producer fees and $4.2 million on advertising costs.

Although Chartoff and Winkler were excited about the script and the idea of Stallone playing the lead character, they were hesitant about having an unknown title for the film. The producers also had trouble casting the other main characters in the story, as Apollo Creed and Adrian were cast unusually late by production standards. 

Real-life boxer Ken Norton was initially sought out for the role of Apollo Creed, but he dropped out and the role was eventually given to Carl Weathers. Norton, on whom the doctrine was loosely based, fought Muhammad Ali three times.

 According to The Rocky Scrapbook, Carrie Snodgress was originally cast to play Adrian, but a financial dispute forced the producers to look elsewhere. Susan Sarandon and Cher auditioned for the role, but Sarandon was considered too beautiful for the character and Cher was too expensive

. After Talia Shire's ensuing audition, Chartoff, Winkler and director John Avildsen insisted that she play the role.

Philadelphia-based boxer Joe Frazier makes a cameo appearance in the film.

 Outspoken boxer Muhammad Ali, who fought Frazier three times, influenced the character of Apollo Creed. During the 49th Academy Awards in 1977, Ali and Stallone staged a brief comedic confrontation to show that the film did not offend Ali.

 Frazier claimed that some of the plot's most memorable moments—the scenes of Rocky punching holes in a corpse and Rocky ascending the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art as part of his training regimen—were taken without relying on his real exploits.
