I guess my only question is why did it take so long? I'm guessing no one really knew about it.

I wonder if Stallone asked the other Presidents (since he became famous with Rocky) to do it.

For a time, he was unfairly criticized for his lavish lifestyle and not being a positive influence in the African-American community. Also, after winning the heavyweight title he refused to fight other black fighter for several years. That's all I can figure.

I'm sure passage of time helped that too.. Very sad.
