WRESTLING LEGEND HULK Hogan has given his view on the riots in London, and he wants people to “rethink” and “change direction”.

He’s been interviewed by Richard Bacon on his BBC Radio 5Live show.

Speaking from Universal Studios in Orlando, Hulk told Bacon that the riots are headline news in the US. He said:

I feel like maybe homie should run over there start dropping legs, hitting people with big boots and just stop the action.

But he also urged those involved to:

Change your thinking in a positive direction and break the cycle.
