Sylvester Stallone has been reminiscing about his days playing Rocky a lot lately. Not only did the actor release a director’s cut of ‘Rocky IV’ in 2021, but he has shared a number of never before seen photos and clips from the franchise throughout the year. His latest may be his best yet, as the actor recently shared some rare behind the scenes footage of him and Carl Weathers practicing for their fight scenes.

‘Rocky’ has become one of the most beloved sports movies of all-time, but back in 1976 there was no telling what the film would become. As seen in the clips recently shared by Stallone, plenty of work went in to make sure the movie came out right. In the footage, Stallone discusses his career and the film, as clips are shown of Stallone and Weathers meticulously practicing their fight choreography.
