GOOD news for Rocky fans.
Creed, an offshoot of the popular boxing movie franchise, will be shown in theaters this year.
According to Warner Bros., "In this latest chapter, Rocky Balboa will serve as a trainer to the son of his former rival, Apollo Creed. If you recall, Apollo died in Rocky's arms in Rocky IV."

“MANNY PACQUIAO Without a Doubt the single Bravest, and most EXCITING fighter to ever lace on gloves… No one comes close. SEEN them ALL!”, Stallone tweeted after the fight.
