Boxer weighing 400lb bounces back with dominant KO win against 231lb rival

Dajuan Calloway, who tips the scales at an incredible 400lb, bounced back with a second round KO win on Saturday night.

Calloway has weighed in excess of 400lb at his career heaviest and was making his eighth professional appearance at the Hoptown Havoc event against Antwaun Tubbs promoted by One One Six Boxing Promotions. The super heavyweight star suffered a unanimous decision defeat last time out against Jeremiah Milton in his huge opportunity on the undercard of Terence Crawford's win over David Avanesyan.

His latest appearance, set in Hopkinsiville, Kentucky, came against Tubbs, who had 17 professional defeats on his record going into the fight. And the 400lb star bounced back in emphatic fashion with a win, knocking his rival, who weighed 169lb less, down to the ground in the second round before the referee saw no option but to step in.
