The story so far
Everything you need before watchingRocky brings Donnie to a rough Philadelphia gym, where the noise of bikes outside is matched by the crack of boxing mitts inside. He introduces Donnie to the local crew, including a young sparring partner and the people who keep a fighter ready. The workout quickly turns tense when Donnie pushes too hard and talks back. Rocky steps in with a lesson about listening, humility, and learning how to belong to a team.

嘿,唐尼,过来。 我大老远来这儿是要和你一起训练。 我就是这么训练的,明白吗? 有些事我做不了了。 我不能再这样了。 我再也没法那样举拳靶了。 但我看着你,也在陪你训练。 我就用这个来练。
