Description: Photograph caption dated May 20, 1979 reads, "Muhammad Ali just happened to be slapping Carl Weathers on the back at the Rodeo Cafe when we arrived to talk to Carl about 'Rocky II.' Ali is a fan of 'Rocky,' and thinks that Weathers' performance as champion Apollo Creed was cool and credible. Ali says about Weathers, 'You look real pretty. You float like a butterfly and sting like a bee...but watch out, because I'm the real champ and if we should ever meet ...' "
