The tributes to the late Carl Weathers have continued to pour in, with fellow co-stars like Adam Sandler talking about what the beloved actor meant to them and the world of Weathers fans.
Of course, Rocky star Sylvester Stallone had to weigh in, and he delivered an incredible tribute on Instagram with a video in which he spoke about Weathers as Stallone tried not to lose it.
“Carl Weathers was such an integral part of my life, my success, everything about it,” he said. “I give him incredible credit and kudos, because when he walked into that room, and I saw him for the first time, I saw greatness. But I didn’t realize how great. I never could have accomplished what we did with Rocky without him. He was absolutely great. His voice, his size, his power, his athletic ability, but more importantly, his heart, his soul.”
