i suppose its very possibly that 1000 years from now people will question wether or not rocky was actually a boxer...which would be true...he was...but wether or not he was a real boxer or a fictitional character is a whole other story. there will be documents, possibly, that support the fact that he may have very well existed. im imaginine these documents will be interpreted many different ways. and if the film is around, maybe it will just be interpreted as a story,, an account of the actual life of the boxer.
i know this sounds stupid...but it does make sense. at least to me.

Rocky Marciano was real, Rocky Balboa is a composite character. I doubt any intelligent person will have any problem distinguishing between the two at any point in our future.
