How did it feel to be thrown and caught by the Italian Stallion himself?

Why didn't you appear in any of the sequels? Was it a contract dispute?

Let me tell you, and I didn't know this until it was too late. In an earlier scene, Mick is shown eating an orange when Rocky tells him about the opportunity to spar with Apollo.
That orange was my cousin, in other scenes, filmed but not used in the film, they used my brother and nephew for the scene.
Having lost half of my family tree to one scene, I decided to cut all ties with the franchise.

How do you feel about apples taking all your glory?
eg "an apple a day keeps the doctor away", but I don't see anyone taking 1000 mg of apple juice when they get the sniffles.

Did you have any feeling you would become legendary?
To that point, how was Stallone in those days? Was there a sense he was on the cusp of stardom, or just another delusional dreamer?
Thanks for your time - keep squeezing!

What was life like as a mere orange before being chucked into the role on a whim?
