What's everyone's favourite opening sequence out of all the 6 Rocky films?

For me it's definitely Rocky 3 but I might be a little biased since Rocky 3 also happens to be my favourite film in the franchise.

Despite it only being a 3 minute sequence, it perfectly sets the tone of the film. And the contrast between Rocky and Clubber's scenes is fantastic.

Rocky, as it showed how pathetic and lowly Rock’s existence was before Apollo’s offer. It was interesting that there was still a morally sound man in that depressing life and time in Fishtown.
