Rocky has taken up the manager's whistle and is training Tommy Gunn to be the next great fighter. At the same time though, Rocky is neglecting his son who is getting beat up at school and needs other people in the gym to train him to fight.

It's right on the border between being a Sports Montage and a Training Montage, but the pictures of the son working hard tilts it into training territory. The problem is it tries to be more than it should be. The tagline for the movie is "Go For It". "Go For It" gets said twenty other times in the movie when no one would say that. And so the montage tries to establish "Go For It" as this big ideal and ends up seeming very cluttered.
