Quote
Apollo Creed:
Without a ranked contender, what this fight needs is a novelty. This is the land of opportunity, right? So, Apollo Creed, on January 1 st, gives a local underdog fighter an opportunity. A snow-white underdog, and I'm gonna put his face on this poster with me. And I'll tell you why. Because I'm sentimental. A lot of other people in this country are just as sentimental and there's nothing they'd like better than to see Apollo Creed give a local Philadelphia boy a shot at the greatest title in the world on this country's biggest birthday. Now that's the way I see it and that's the way it's gonna be.
Jergens:
Apollo, I like it. It's very American.
Apollo Creed:
No, Jergens. It's very smart.
