In 2018, TMZ did a short walking interview at Los Angeles International Airport with Sylvester Stallone’s wife, Jennifer Flavin. They asked her thoughts on Hulk Hogan, claiming to knock out her husband in a real fight. Moreover, she also shared who would win the match between the two stars.
Flavin said, “Well, I’m always gonna be on team Sly”. The host asked Sly is shorter than Hogan, but still, he can do it. She replied, “Yeah, but he has the punch.” Upon asking will it will be a knockout, Sly’s wife said, “Sure, by knockout.”

Clearly, Flavin was on the side of her husband. Also, a bout between Stallone and The Immortal One in WWE was one of the things many wanted to watch. Their match in Rocky III is still one of the major highlights of Hollywood.
However, back in the ’80s, Hogan had surprised the Rocky star with his physique. In one of the interviews, Stallone shared The Hulkster’s body dimensions.
Sly said, “His dimensions, believe or not, his arms are 24-inch around. My thigh is 21 (inches). His chest is 62, (and) around the shoulders he is close to 70 inches around. His neck is 23 (inches) and he eats 5ft 10 inch Italian (hand gestures of how a giant eats).”

It’s not only Stallone from Hollywood but Muhammad Ali from the boxing world and Arnold Schwarzenegger from the bodybuilding world who were also amused seeing Hulk Hogan in person.
Hulk Hogan once said Sylvester Stallone is physically the same as he was back in the 80s
Similar to a short walking interview with Jennifer Flavin, TMZ in 2018 interviewed Hulk Hogan prior to her at the airport. The 12-time world champion praise Sylvester Stallone for his health and said he is the same person as he was in the 80s.
Hogan said, “You know what’s so cool? Right now he’s the same good Italian home boy that he always was back then. He hasn’t changed a bit through all forces of fame. He’s the same exact guy he was.”
Furthermore, the host asked him about a real fight between the stars. Hogan indirectly said he would defeat him in that match. Then he flexed his Andre the Giant t-shirt and promoted his beach shop and restaurant, ‘Hogan’s Hangout.’
