This is an example of a classic Hollywood montage taken from Rocky IV. It features a passage of time during which Rocky and Ivan Drago are training for their fight. The Rocky series is well known for it's use of montage and has been referenced in many films and TV shows since.
The use of montage in Soviet film making is all about juxtaposing shots to create new meaning in the film. A good example of this is the 'Odessa Steps' sequence from the 1925 propaganda film, 'Battleship Potemkin'.
The French use of the word montage is the literal translation for the English word edit.
