It was only yesterday that the unofficial poster for 'Creed 2' dropped, but the excitement was marred somewhat by a rumour doing the rounds that the 71-year-old had passed away.
Happily, this is not the case as the actor shared a screengrab of the hoax on Instagram, urging fans to 'Please ignore this stupidity'.
The hoax had claimed that Stallone had been secretly battling prostate cancer, but as he said himself, he's "Alive and well and happy and healthy… Still punching!"
