Iranian Hulk 's trainer says the social media celebrity was so unconfident in his boxing abilities that he didn't want to take part in public classes.
Hulk - real name Sajad Gharibi - was stopped in the opening round of his ring debut against fellow internet rival Kazakh Titan - real name Djumanov Almat Bakhytovich - in the main event of Wicked N' Bad's white-collar event last month. It was evident from the opening bell that Gharibi was not fit enough to throw a punch, with Bakhytovich being the better prepared of the two super-heavyweights.
The Iranian's trainer Hamzeh Moradian has admitted that Gharibi was "too shy" to come to his boxing classes when preparing for the fight. Moradian was forced to find a private gym to host one-to-one sessions with Gharibi, also admitting the Iranian wanted to pull out of the fight just days before the event.
