During the scene when he's looking for the business card to give to Marie and Steps he says jokingly "So much stuff in my pockets, I feel like a Kangaro.".
This is very similar to the scene in 'First Blood' when he's looking for the picture of him and his war buddy and says once again jokingly "I got so much stuff in my pockets"
That had to be intentional right lol?

Good catch. I'd have to bet that it is intentional.

Well, looking at the fact that Stallone was involded in both screenplays (and the only writer for Rocky Balboa Just like every other Rocky movies except Creed), I would say that it is more than possible.
