The sans serif font used in Rocky also represents the film and type of character Rocky is. The big bold font which is just like the hard image Rocky makes himself out to be, is contrasted with the real Rocky who is a big softie, hence the holding of the girlfriends hand.

The text is also packed very tight and almost looks clenched to the sides, it symbolizes a clenched fist trying to breakthrough.
