2-part question:
"What is your favorite sports movie and why, and what was the best movie in the Rocky series?"
Rocky I was my favorite but all of the sequels run a very close second perhaps with the exception of Rocky III which I thought was the lamest of all. The best Rocky in the series is way too difficult to pick, but I really like Rocky Balboa and of course the original. Those would be at the top of the list. Just a great movie that had some of the best sequels ever. Sylvester Stallone wrote the script and not make the movie unless he played the main role and he did it so well all the way through the end.
As for runners-up for me to the Rocky series, there have been so many great sports movies I can't name a second. But here are some of my favorites:
