Continuity: In Rocky, Micky mentions to Rocky that he is 76 years old. When Micky dies in Rocky 3, his tombstone says 76 years. Rocky 3 takes place at least 3 years after Rocky.

Factual error: When Mr. T and Rocky are about to fight for the second time, the camera shows a view of the crowd, if you look closely in the top left hand corner there is a billboard with Rocky and Apollo with superfight 2 on it. This is a scene from Rocky 2.

Continuity: In one fight scene, you can see the film is reversed because the "clubber" written on Mr. T's shorts is inverted.

Continuity: In the second fight with Clubber Lang, just after Apollo Creed and crew scuffle with Clubber's corner, and just after Rocky and Apollo say, "I thought you said to be cool." "That *was* cool!", Rocky takes off his robe. As he takes it off, notice his towel is around his neck, covering his chest. It then pans wide to get an overhead view of the ring - Rocky's towel is missing. The very next shot shows Rocky continuing to take his robe off and magically, the towel re-appears.
