Lets say Clubber Lang wants to get back into Fame.....What if Clubber fought Drago??? Clubber Trains super hard like he did before his first fight with Rocky....How does the fight turn out? And what Round does Clubber/Ivan Win?

Before people start coming at me saying Drago would destroy him, I wanna give some credit to Clubber....Rocky hit him with so many punches in both fights and that did NOT beat him. He only Where as Drago actually was beaten by Rocky and knocked out.

Drago would have taken Clubber's head off.

I get how it is easy to see that, but honestly I could see it being a long fight....Once Clubber gets an opening he does not stop. And I could see Drago taking a beating from Clubber....Remember Rocky actually beat Drago by knocking him out, where as for Clubber his only strategy was tiring him out. And Rocky did way more punches on Clubber than Drago and Clubber felt un hurt....Not saying Drago would lose, just saying I think Clubber would do more damage than we think.

Clubber would've shown Drago's wife a good time.

I think that would have been the other way around..

Clubber wouldve disappeared when he got to Siberia.

And then Hannibal and Face would’ve had to go find him.

Instead, we could discuss how Clubber could beat Drago. The problem Clubber has, is he's kind of similar to Rocky in that he likes to just absorb head shots. He likes to just take the jabs, while slowly using his body to run you into the corner, where he pummels his opponent. You just can't do that against Drago.

Rocky learned this lesson and was taught how to dodge against Clubber for the rematch. So, Clubber needs to retrain, but also I think a guy like Clubber needs a motivation beyond "I'm the baddest in the world". His motivation against Rocky was rich vs poor, it upset him how coddled Rocky was. Where does he get the motivation to fight Drago?

I'd pick Drago. I mean, he went on to become He Man, afterall.

What I will say about the Rocky series is that Sylvester Stallone had a remarkable talent for creating all these larger than life characters in his films. He's an underrated writer for sure.
