The actor is said to have “died peacefully in his sleep,” as shared by his family.
“We lost a legend yesterday,” Sylvester Stallone wrote onInstagram.

“My life was forever changed for the better the day I met Carl Weathers.
Rest in power and keeping punching.”
The caption accompanied a video in which Stallone spoke about his grief and memories of Weathers.

“So, Apollo, keep punching.”
“Along with the world, I will miss Carl.
He was a great actor, a terrific athlete and a good friend.

I cherish many special memories of Carl, both professionally and personally.
Like Apollo Creed, he had that special charm that always brought a smile to your face.”
“An extraordinary athlete, a fantastic actor, and a great person.

We couldnt have made Predator without him.
And we certainly wouldn’t have had such a wonderful time making it.”
I am grateful for your influence & support of all things good in my life.

This is how I will always remember you."
“I’m struggling with this one today.
Carl has always been a hero of mine since I was a child.

“He gave me golden nuggets that I will treasure and use for the rest of my life.
Every conversation and text message after was bathed in love, mentorship and support.
Love you my brother #carlweathers.

I will miss you.
We will miss you.
Rest in Power.”

Our thoughts are with Weathers’s family and friends at this time.
