Sly — who also played boxer Rocky Balboa — added: “He’s a natural force of nature and he has charisma so why wouldn’t we want him?”
Then he joked: “As long as he’s beating up the other guys.”
Stallone also calls the two-time world champ, 34, “the greatest heavyweight that ever lived” on ITV’s The Jonathan Ross Show tomorrow night.
He added: “I think you’re the greatest heavyweight that ever lived and I’m a boxing historian, I studied this closely.

“It’s totally true.”
Fury, also a guest on the show, says he is keen on Sly’s offer.
He adds: “Who better to help me than the man himself, Mr Rocky Balboa?
