However, in a recent video, Stallone was seemingly knocked out by pop star Demi Lovato. In the video, the two can be spotted in a sparring session as Lovato landed a clean right hand after she slipped Stallone’s jab. Despite many believing that the video is real, Sly revealed that it was a choreographed sequence. Stallone recently made an appearance at ‘The Late Night Show’ with Jimmy Fallon where he was shown this footage.
Moreover, Stallone then stated that nobody should think that it was a real session. He added that this was an art form and takes a bit of practice to be perfected. “Now for a second, you don’t think that’s real. That shows how you can actually choreograph and fake a punch, but it takes a little bit of practice,” said Stallone.
