That's okay. He's been in other stuff (as you listed), just more remembered for his role in the Rocky films. For myself, that's pretty much all I've seen him in, except for Back to School as Lou, Thornton Melon's "chauffeur." Loved him in that role.

Perusing his IMDB, looks like I've seen him in the Rocky movies of course, but also Carlito's Way: Rise to Power, The Sopranos, Chinatown, Once Upon a Time in America, and apparently he was in Amityville II but I don't remember him in it.
