Након што је победио Апола Крида и постао првак у тешкој категорији, Роки Балбоа ужива у лагодном животу звезде и америчког идола. Након десет успешних обрана титуле, верује како се довољно доказао и да му у је време за заслужену пензију. Међутим, појављује се млада нада Клабер Ланг, који као први изазивач тражи прилику да се бори са Рокијем. Првак је очекивано поносан и не одбија изазов, те тренира с менаџером Микијем. Пре меча Мики страда, па Роки улази у борбу забринут и без тренера. Ланг побеђује у мечу, а Роки је претучен и осрамоћен. Пада у депресију и нема довољно самопоуздања за реванш. Међутим, појављује се његов бивши љути противник Аполо Крид који му нуди помоћ. Роки прихвата, почиње напорно да тренира под Аполовим вођством и покушава да врати изгубљени понос и менталну снагу.
Слава је дошла и прошла и Роки Балбоа, некада италијански пастув, проводи вечери причајуци старе приче гостима свог ресторана "Код Адријане", названог по његовој покојној жени, за којом жали у тишини. Његов син не жели да проводи време с њим. Сувише је заузет покушавајући да живи свој живот. Када случајна компјутерска симулација упари Рокија са Мејсоном Диксоном, актуелним шампионом тешке категорије, бокс поново заокупља машту јавности. Све изгледа као шала. Медутим, за Рокија, готово двоструко старијег од противника, прилика за борбу је друга шанса, за коју је мислио да је никада неће добити - прилика да докаже себи и онима које воли да, док се тело мења, срце само постаје јаче.
