Very early in the movie when Rocky is at the Italian Market in Philadelphia, he enters "Claudio's" cheese store. He walks directly in and to the left at the counter facing Sal, the owner. Nobody ever goes directly to the left to the counter, you ALWAYS walk to the right around the shelves to the front of the store then to the counter. Counter traffic is strictly enforced at Claudio's. [Perhaps for the general public. But Balboa is a world wide known star, and even more so a celebrity in Philadelphia. It is in no way a stretch to assume he is close personal friends of the owners of all the markets that he gets his restaraunt supplies from, and thus, can bend the rules a little more then the average joe.]

In the final scene where Michael Buffer is announcing the winner, you aren't supposed to announce someone won by split decision before you announce the judge's scores. [This is not true. Very often announcers will tell the audience that a split decision has occurred, and then proceed to reading out the scorecards. It's all down to their personal preference as to how they wish to read out the scores.]

In the first round of the boxing match it is obvious that Tarver does not hit Stallone, but only gets close and then a sound effect signifies the punch. The sound is the same every time, and Stallone doesn't move like he would have if he'd been hit. Later in the fight the punches look more realistic. [Most if not all of the punches thrown are real. Sly stated this in the commentary and also you see it in the "making of" video. He wanted to make it as real as possible.]
