Hogan: 'Prison has been good for my son'

Hulk Hogan has claimed that prison is helping turn his son Nick into "a great man".

Nick Bollea is currently serving an eight-month sentence in Florida for reckless driving and was recently transferred to a minimum security facility.

Speaking about his son's progress, Hogan told People: "Nick is doing great, and I'm so excited, because Nick is going to be a great man now. I'm proud of him."

Hogan continued: "He was moving through life and maybe not real appreciative of things.

"When this happened, it totally spun him in a 180. It's the best thing that ever happened to him. I'm not saying it's a good thing. But it happened for a reason."

Nick is expected to be released from jail in October after participating in an inmate work programme.
