Written by Sylvester Stallone, the Rocky movie series grew into one of the best sports movies of all time in the history of Hollywood

It does not matter whether someone is a boxing fan or not, the Rocky movie series should be must watch for everybody. For those unversed, actor Sylvester Stallone was a struggling broke newcomer in the early 70s who himself wrote the script of Rocky’s first part. When he went to the producers with the script, they were heavily impressed by the story and offered 3,60,000 dollars to Stallone for the script. However, they had one condition; they did not want Stallone to be Rocky. A determined Sylvester Stallone did not bulge and grabbed the role after getting into several rounds of discussion with the producers. His writing and the movie Rocky turned him into a megastar of Hollywood. In the movie, there are several motivational quotes and speeches that are said by Rocky (Sylvester Stallone).
