Rocky Balboa versus John Rambo. The ultimate fight. The one we would all pay money to see happen. But who would win this epic battle?
Well, assuming that Rambo would not be allowed to use his M60, or his survival knife, or his compound bow, or his Browning M2, or any of the numerous other weapons he has brandished, it’s a good question?
For the answer, we turn to the man who has portrayed John Rambo in five movies and Rocky Balboa in… one sec… carry the two… eight films. I think.
“Even I would pay to see this one,” Stallone wrote on Instagram recently.
“If it’s two men meeting in the street and going at each other with no rules I believe the outcome would be… If the fighters wore [sic] to remain upright Rocky would prevail. His body punches and Right Hooks Would eventually beat Rambo… If the fight goes to the ground, Rambo will prevail In a bloody brutal fight to the end. … rethinking this scenario, I believe that upon initial contact, since they will not be in the rain but fighting outside, basically a street fight, the Rocky will land the first five or six blows.”
So, who do you got in a fight? Rocky or Rambo?
“If that does not incapacitate Rambo, which I don’t think he will unless he’s caught clean, Rambo’s skill set will definitely be in full display. Which means incredibly vicious assaults on the eyes, the throat, every vulnerable part of the body eventually leading to being pulled to the ground and most likely mauled…
“Then again Rocky is incredibly resilient and pretty good on the ground too!!! That’s my opinion in this fictional world. Final result is neither man will ever be the same.”
Fans of the two legendary movie characters, of course, had their opinions.
They both have HuuuuUUUUGE Mental strength...Tough one to call.
Perhaps the referee would call a draw? 🤔DiiiiIIIING DiiiiIIING 🔔 pic.twitter.com/0JgbUkz2Lt— NightFall$ (@PaulBoyes13) February 9, 2022
Hmmm interesting...don't forget that Rocky was a street fighter before he became a pro boxer. It would be a close one for sure but I think with his heart too, Rocky would take an unarmed Rambo. Just.

Rocky wins in the Ring, Rambo the Octagon.
