"Is Smokin' Joe still an ambassador? If so, why?"
NO! He took an early retirement at 2/5th his annual salary to start his own business at the same time he bought a $735,000 house, a mercedes and a jaguar.
I've been wondering why he's still using the title but knowing how over-blown his ego is I just brushed it off.
