‘Rocky’ star Carl Weathers’ official cause of death revealed
As we remember Weathers, we celebrate not just the roles he played in the movies, but the man he was, a talented and exceptional human being whose legacy will continue to inspire. Carl Weathers may have left us, but his work and the memories he created will forever remain in the hearts of those who admired him. Our hearts and condolences go out to his family and friends.
When the crowd laughed after a joke or cheered on cue after a perfectly delivered line, it gave him something. Even as a grown man in an NFL locker room, that feeling—and that need to chase it—persisted. Fifty years later, the athlete turned actor sees parallels in how he found success in two of the most competitive occupations in the world. His drive is fueled by a need to survive and a fear of what will happen if he gives in. That mindset propelled him from New Orleans to a pro football career in Oakland and eventually Hollywood.
But before that, he was Carl Weathers, undrafted linebacker. His NFL career lasted only two years. And, to this day, he remembers the words spoken to him by a legendary coach that ended it. From football to gymnastics to, yes, boxing, his obsession with the drawing applause and approval he received through competition and performance fueled him in every endeavor.

Прежде чем его многолетняя актерская карьера пошла в гору, Уэзерс добился успеха на футбольном поле. Он играл в команде государственного университета Сан-Диего, а затем профессионально - за "Окленд Рэйдерс".
Before he entered the ring, James Brown sang "Living in America" with showgirls and Creed popped up on a balcony in a Star-Spangled Banner shorts and waistcoat combo and an Uncle Sam hat, dancing and taunting Drago. A bloodied Creed collapses in the ring after taking a vicious beating, twitches and is cradled by Rocky as he dies, inevitably setting up a fight between Drago and Rocky. He also voiced Combat Carl in the "Toy Story" franchise. Sandler hailed his friend on social media, calling him a "great man" and "a true legend" -- "So much fun to be around always. Smart as hell. Loyal as hell. Funny as hell.
