So, in CREED, where’s Rocky’s roommate and best friend Paulie Pennino? Unfortunately, he is presumed dead in CREED…but how did Paulie Pennino die? The movie dances around some of bushes that it beats… but as far as Paulie’s death is concerned, it’s a mystery. 
The movie focuses on the young boxer, Adonis, his relationship with Rocky and how Creed brought them together. The movie is in the Rocky cinematic universe, so it would be totally unfair to the audience if some of Rocky’s history was left unmentioned and that history includes Paulie. So what gives??
