Iranian Hulk and Kazakh Titan weighed a combined 520lb for their boxing fight in Dubai tomorrow night before engaging in one final shoving match.
The strongmen, whose real names are Sajad Gharibi and Djumanov Almat Bakhytovich respectively will make their boxing debuts at the P7 Arena on Sunday night, and weighed in today to make their exhibition bout official. Gharibi tipped the scales at 300lb while Bakhytovich came in considerably lighter at 220lb before the pair faced off with Gharibi pushing his opponent before a ruckus developed and security staff stepped in.
After two years of back-and-forth needling, the pair have finally weighed in for their grudge fight, which will come as a particular relief to Gharibi. The Iranian Hulk has had a number of false-starts to his fighting career, including an ill-fated bout with Martyn Ford which was rescheduled multiple times before being completely cancelled in April.
