Rocky and Sugar both connected because they both were underdogs in their respected sports. Rocky grew up in Philly in a bad neighborhood and had to hustle or his money. He worked with someone and had to get money out of people for his boss by scaring them. Sugar also grew up in a shaky home and had to baseball to get away from it all. Sugar loved the game of baseball and had a great nac for pitching. Neither grew up with a lot of money and had to find ways to make it out.

Even if both films are very similarthey still have their differences in presenting the American Dream. While Rocky who had an unexpected and random opportunity to fight Apollo  who at the time was the heavyweight champion of the worldMiguel always had the chance but never pursued his passion which was baseball . Another thing to mention about their differencesMiguel had to sacrifice a lot of things getting into the minor leagues while Rocky had nothing to lose. Miguel had to move to the United States in order to pursue his dream to play baseballwhile for Rocky it came to him. Both Rocky and Sugar had to come up through sports.
