dbo:abstract Apollo Creed is a fictional character from the Rocky films, played by Carl Weathers. He serves as the main antagonist in Rocky and Rocky II and also appears in Rocky III and Rocky IV. He is a tough but agile boxer who is, when the series begins, the undisputed heavyweight world champion. The character was inspired by the real-life champion Muhammad Ali, having what one author remarked as the same "brash, vocal, [and] theatrical" personality. The film's writer and star Sylvester Stallone stated, "[Jack] Johnson served as the inspiration for the character of Apollo Creed in the Rocky movies"; the character is loosely based on a combination of Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Joe Louis, and Johnson. Protagonist Rocky Balboa, Creed's rival in Rocky and Rocky II, faces underdog odds (five-to-one in Rocky II) and views Creed with respect, pointedly refusing the prodding of a reporter to trash-talk Creed (although it is implied that, being poorly educated at that point, he didn't understand the meaning of the word "derogatory"), even after the flamboyant Creed publicly taunted him by laconically remarking, "He's great." In Rocky, Creed essentially cleans out his division of serious challengers (the few remaining being either injured or unavailable) and magnanimously decides to fight local journeyman Balboa for the fan spectacle, as well as the implied symbolism of fighting a man with an Italian background on "this country's biggest birthday." In the film and its sequel, Balboa and Creed find themselves basically evenly matched in the ring, ending up friends by the third movie. Creed had multiple nicknames, including most prominently "The Master of Disaster". Others include "The King of Sting", "The Dancing Destroyer", "The Prince of Punch", and "The Count of Monte Fisto". A 2013 poll of former heavyweight champions and boxing writers, including former WBA heavyweight star James "Bonecrusher" Smith, ranked Creed as the second-best boxer in the Rocky series, second only to Rocky himself, having only 2 losses: one to Rocky and the other, Ivan Drago, the match in which Creed was killed at the hands of Drago. (en) Apollo Creed (22 de febrero de 1943-31 de agosto de 1985) fue un boxeador ficticio en la saga cinematográfica Rocky, interpretado por el actor Carl Weathers. El personaje, creado por Sylvester Stallone para el filme, se desarrolla desde la primera entrega de la saga Rocky (1976), como campeón del mundo de los pesos pesados, hasta que muere a manos del boxeador Iván Drago en la cuarta entrega Rocky IV (1985), durante un combate de exhibición. Se trata de un boxeador dominado por sus sentimientos y pasiones, que demuestra a lo largo de sus apariciones, tiene una gran autoestima, pero en ocasiones, esta se vuelve orgullo, y le llevan a la perdición. Pero sobre todo, es un personaje bastante carismático, capaz de convencer a cualquiera, y debido a ello explota su imagen pública a través de su carisma.Apollo muestra la figura de un hombre confiado de sí mismo, seguro de todo y, en ocasiones, creído, lo que ocasionara su prematura muerte, enfrentándose a un púgil de mayor fortaleza física que él (Drago) sin apenas entrenamiento.

(it) Apollo Creed (ur. 22 lutego 1943, zm. 31 sierpnia 1985) – fikcyjna postać z serii filmów o Rockym Balboa, bokser. Grał go Carl Weathers. Był mistrzem świata wagi ciężkiej. Pewnego dnia on i promotorzy wpadli na pomysł, by zorganizować walkę pomiędzy Apollo a zupełnie nieznanym bokserem. Postanowili tak, gdyż Mac Lee Green, który miał być przeciwnikiem Apollo, doznał poważnej kontuzji ręki. Wybór padł na Rocky’ego Balboa. Apollo traktował tę walkę niezbyt poważnie. Podczas walki Apollo pierwszy upada na deski. Mimo to, wygrywa niejednogłośnie na punkty, stosunkiem 8:7. Obaj po walce trafiają do szpitala. Apollo jest atakowany przez media, które mówią, że walka była ukartowana. Urażony mistrz decyduje się na rewanż. Rocky unika go, gdyż przy każdym mocniejszym uderzeniu może stracić wzrok. W piętnastej rundzie walki, obaj bokserzy padają na deski. Pierwszy wstaje Rocky i zostaje nowym mistrzem świata. Rocky broni 10 razy tytułu mistrza świata. Pojawia się jednak groźny przeciwnik – Clubber Lang. Chce on walczyć z mistrzem. Walkę tę komentuje Apollo. Włoski Ogier traci tytuł. Chce zakończyć karierę. Apollo zostaje jego trenerem. Zabiera go do Los Angeles, gdzie go ciężko trenuje. W rewanżu Rocky odzyskuje tytuł. Do USA z ZSRR przyjeżdża mistrz świata amatorów, Ivan Drago. Wyzywa Rocky’ego na pojedynek. Zamiast niego chce walczyć Apollo. Uważa, że to będzie dobry sposób, by wrócić na ring po pięciu latach przerwy w pokazowej walce. Rocky mu to odradza. Przed pojedynkiem, Apollo urządza wielki show. Po pierwszej rundzie, Apollo jest mocno zakrwawiony. W drugiej rundzie, po lewym sierpowym Ivana, pada nieżywy na deski. Ostateczny bilans Apollo wynosił 47 wygranych (42KO) i 2 przegrane. Był żonaty z Mary Anne. Miał trójkę dzieci. Jego pierwowzorem byli prawdopodobnie Muhammad Ali i Jack Johnson.
