To capture Adonis Creed's physicality, Michael B. Jordan naturally had to put in a ton of work to match his role. While the actor was in decent shape before getting the part, he needed to change up his routine immensely in order to properly convey the aspiring boxer's skill and frame.

Jordan stated that he packed on an astounding 24 pounds (around 11 kilos) of muscle by intensely training for one year. In addition to the weight training, he had to stick to a strict diet and learn how to box since he did not have a body double.
Fortunately, Jordan's hard work paid off and his ferocity and imposing nature in the boxing scenes were praised by both sports and film fans.
