Here's where I disagree with you, yes Sly is most famous for playing a boxer, but that role was an insipration to many people, in much the same way that Star Trek inspired people to become astronauts or scientists, Rocky inspired people to become boxers, thus it proves the Iconic status of Stallone, as least to me.
