I watched Grudge Match again. It's pretty good. There are several scenes or parallels with the Rocky movies. Stallone drinks the raw eggs again. He starts out in bad shape then slowly gets into shape a la Rocky. He has the bad eye which his manager demonstrates by slapping him just like in Rocky. Part of his training is in a pool just like in Rocky III. In the beginning, Stallone loses his laboring job just like he did in Rocky II. Also, he passes by a billboard of the fight and looks at it just like when he visited the arena the night before the fight in Rocky. I didn't pick up on any parallels with DeNiro's performance in Raging Bull.
