After dominating the boxing world, Adonis Creed has been thriving in both his career and personal life.

But trouble looms on the horizon as he is challenged to defend his heavyweight title against the Russian contender, Viktor Drago. The son of Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren), who killed Apollo Creed in Rocky IV. It seems that this fight was fate. Adonis takes the match because he believes it will be an opportunity for him to be something greater than just a boxer – an opportunity to show everyone what happened thirty years ago wasn’t a fluke, that even though his father was not perfect, he can still make him proud by being someone great.
