What happened to Drago after this fight?


Did he get busted for steorids?
Become saggy and weaker since he had to fight naturally?
Any stories about where he went?

reply

Stallone said Drago went back to his hometown in disgrace, became addicted to alcohol and ultimately committed suicide.

Lol a fitting end

Rubbish. I heard he started injecting himself with fish DNA after he got busted for possession of roids and eventually turned into a merman. He soon began freeing dolphins from nets and punching sharks in the belly, and recently married a porpoise called Sandra. He would often say to her "With you, my life has a porpoise." and they would both laugh. He also founded a punk rock band called 'Moby's Dick' with a crab and two lobsters. The crab is the bassist, obviously...

Ouch. Dark ending, and as Stallone is the creator of the Rockyverse, it's canon I suppose.

My feeling was that his public defiance ("I fight for me!") coupled with his loss saw him thrown in a gulag for the remainder of the 80s, but as Glasnost and Perestroika gained purchase and the Berlin wall fell, he was released. I could see him settling in Eastern Europe somewhere, maybe opening a gym.

He became RoboCop

He fled his country in disgrace and came back to the U.S. Changed his name to "Jack Caine", kicked the roids and used his natural strength while training for the police academy. Several years later while on duty investigating drug dealers, he becomes involved in an assassination case with an alien who claims "he came in peace."

Ivan Drago was sent to a Siberian prison camp for disrespecting the Soviet Minister of Sports.

Ivan went home and celebrated downing a bunch of cheeseburgers or something.

Whoops, wrong film.

Well, for losing the fight, he probably didn't get any pussy from Bridgette Nielsen and his trainer probably gave him more shit over it and dumped him so he could have his redemption moment at some point
