This is actual fantastic life advice from Carl Weathers, and it should be shared around especially now. RIP Carl Weathers, I'll take these words to heart.

Carl was one of the most distinctive actors whether he starred opposite Stallone in Rocky or Schwarzenegger in Predator. I will probably always remember him best for his very special and important guest role as SA Mark Jeffries on Law & Order: SVU. R.I.P., Carl. ✨

This great man exactly knew why Rocky was such a big, massive success! One thing to note over here is, that Carl is expressing his feelings for the movie Rocky in a very same way as Sylvester himself does. This shows how passionate these people were for that movie! Sylvester just a couple of days ago on Carl Weathers demise said that Rocky would never have been possible without Carl. Carl had such an pure, amazing heart and soul besides all of his excellent traits. Carl represented that era of 80's! Keep punching Appollo. God bless you wherever you are... 🥲💪🙏

You were a Magnificent Actor and a Magnificent Person. Without you, the Rocky film franchise would not have been successful. Rocky Movie Franchise, Action Jackson, Predator, Happy Gilmore, etc.. were excellent films in which you had a big role. Thank you for all the beautiful childhood memories you gave us. You will be missed. Carl Weathers RIP 🙏🙏

Honestly my favourite character in the Rocky films. Should've got his own film

I think Creed was the acknowledgment that he deserved his own story. The Creed franchise is such a powerful continuation of Apollo’s legacy.

I personally wouldn’t mind seeing a Young Apollo origin movie. But it’s gonna be a lot to live up to stepping into this man’s shoes

The combination of Burgess Merideth Burt young and Carl Weather's who were all seasoned knew they had something very special with this script written by Stallone. All three of his coactors should have been nominated .There hasn't been anything remotely as empowering since. Thank all of you gentleman for the most motivational film for the down on thier luck person.

*You can accept defeat, or you can simply look at it and say "Wait a minute, I don't have to lay down with this one. I don't have to to take this turn over and say 'Oh, God, I lost again'."* Apparently, this is what Ivan Drago (Apollo Creed's opponent and abrupt murderer) learned in _Creed 2_ after seeing that his son Viktor was about to lose to Adonis Creed (Apollo's son). Edit: Also, rest in peace, Carl.
