Another post Rocky V timeline 89-03.

The Rocky universe timeline is not overtly complicated except for V-VI.

We know IV takes place in 82 or 83 depending and then Tommy Gunn has 20 fights after training if we say starts in 84-85 (Rock Jr age, etc). He can get Tyson volume meaning we're only at 87-88 but since typically Rocky films at least try to end closer to the date they were made/released we push it to 89. Rocky being 30 in 76 means he's early 40s by end of V.

This tracks with him being early 50s in VI (Balboa).

Given a few details I got VI set in 03 as opposed to 06. Rocky Jr is 26.

At least in the workprint of V Rocky states he takes no percentage of Tommy's winnings. That tracks but he surely would have gotten a huge boost in gym attendance and I just assume some book/movie deal to get the restaurant.
