Paulie
He pissed all of his money away.
Rocky was secretly in love with Paulie from the beginning. Adrian was just a surrogate.
Oh, and Drago was his most intimidating foe. I never found Clubber to be that intimidating. I think he was supposed to be based on Mike Tyson but for some reason Mr. T just didn't come across as that scary an opponent to me.

Tyson himself was basically a modern version of Liston.

Well of course not. No one on tigerdroppings would be afraid of a young Mr T. We're all very badass here.
