a) a video in public in front of the press of Lang accusing Rocky of fighting bums and ducking him. This confrontation and accusation would be boxing headline news. It would also presumably spark debate, discussion amongst boxing commentators of whether the claim was true.
Ergo, even if he stick to your argument of "he was the underdog (from the perspective of inside the Rocky universe)" then it's probable that some people would agree with Lang's accusation. Ergo "everyone but Micky" is false.
Ambiturner
please explain the above scene which took place in public whilst surrounded by TV and news cameras.
Your claim was "Everyone but Mickey" thought he was the underdog. But if just one person thought "maybe Lang was right" then your claim is false.
There ain't gonna be no rematch, there ain't gonna be no rematch!
Yo Adrian - your boy ambiturner is a moron
