The way we watch Rocky IV in my house, we skip to the part where Rocky travels to Russia for training. Then we sit and watch the rest of the movie, admiring the training montage, commenting over the turning point in the match, sharing the story of "that idiot on the mailing list who didn't get it. The point isn't that Rocky is stronger than Drago, 'cause he's not. The point is Rocky has more will."
Duke: [to Rocky] You see? You see? He's not a machine, he's a man, he's a man.
Drago: [to his own trainer] He's not human. He's like a piece of iron.
