Good vid by the way CC
I think (whatever his name was who played him) he could have been a decent fighter.
Kel, Apollo Creed's real name is Carl Weathers. You know that movie was fake when Balboa outran Creed on the beach
Carl Weather's did look good in movie he was the only boxer in Rocky that looked like a decent fighter even Tarver looked crap.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
Gutted to read this just.
He was prefect for that role. Will always be a legend for our generation.

Has there ever been a more convincing actor playing a boxer? Daniel Day Lewis and Robert De Niro of course were excellent as La Motta and Flynn and we've all got our favourites. But this was next level. The American dream, the heavyweight champion of the whole World and Weathers played it perfectly. The first two were genuinely brilliant movies and we all fell in love with Rocky of course. But he needed Creed to make that happen and he needed Weathers to be Creed. The way he moved, the way he could throw a punch, the way he could talk. It was as authentic as it gets.
RIP Champ

Yep. Utterly sad. He probably benefited from being a real-life athlete. I only found out today that he had played linebacker in the NFL, albeit for only one season. Still...
You're right... he was perfect for the part of Apollo Creed. MEGA convincing in his acting, and his boxing.
R.I.P.
