Iranian Hulk’s Remarkable Transformation and Return to Combat Sports

Controversies and Challenges

Gharibi’s journey has not been without its fair share of controversies. Some fans have speculated that he edits his pictures, and these suspicions appeared to be confirmed when he wore a baggy t-shirt to cover up his physique during his fight against Bakhytovich. It became evident that Gharibi hadn’t dedicated himself to proper boxing training, as most of his social media posts showcased weightlifting rather than boxing practice.

Additionally, several alleged “altered” pictures from his social media were deleted. Gharibi’s reputation faced scrutiny to the extent that he lost a deal with the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, which expressed concerns about his authenticity. However, he ultimately signed a deal with Wicked ‘N’ Bad for his fight against Bakhytovich.
