2 is my favorite, it needs way more love in here.
First off he wins in the most dramatic fashion of any of the rest,
Second Rocky, Mick, Paulie and Adrian are still in the hood keeping shyt real,
Third, Mickey delivers his most comedic lines in 2, when seeing Rocky Jr. for the first time, "Is that him?!" while frowning like he's an ugly baby.
Fourth, Rocky's speech after winning is his best, "Yo Adrian! I did it!"
Fifth, the sportsmanship between Apollo and Rocky afterward is deep. Real recognize real they fukkin' hugged after beating each other to death.
"Win Rocky Win!!!!!"
