    On Thursday, his impressive results were showcased on the front of Men’s Health magazine.
    And the outspoken promoter, who represents heavyweight superstar Anthony Joshua, admits his trimmer look has given him even more confidence.
    Speaking to Men’s Health UK, he said: “When I wake up in the morning, I go into the bathroom and I get a glimpse of myself and go, ‘F**king hell yeah,’ and that’s good enough.
    “That makes me feel great for the day.”

    Hearn, who ran the London Marathon in 2014, always “hated” the gym until recently.
    But he knew he had to do something about his health as he entered middle age – with the Essex-born businessman conceding he once feared for his life.
    Referencing how the demands of his job escalated in 2021, he said: “The workload trebled, and I just thought to myself, one, you can’t do this for very long if you continue living the same lifestyle, and two, you might die.
    “As extreme as that sounds, I’ve got a history of heart problems in the family.

    “I’ve got a job that’s full of stress. I’m not really sleeping. My diet’s s**t. I’m not training that much. I’m overweight.
    “It’s all the classic signs of a short lifespan.”
    Now his outlook has completely changed as he focuses on improving his fitness even further.
    He added: “Right now, physically, I feel better than I’ve ever felt in my life, and I’m 44 years old.
    “I’m excited to see what’s going to happen in six months, what’s going to happen in 12 months, what’s going to happen in three years.”
    Last week, Hearn watched Joshua, 34, stop Otto Wallin in the main event of a blockbuster show in Saudi Arabia.
    But a clash with long-time rival Deontay Wilder appears to be off the table after the hard-hitting American, 38, was outboxed as he lost to Joseph Parker by unanimous decision.

    He returns on Saturday in a crossover clash against ex-UFC champion Ngannou, 37, who stands 6ft 4in with hulking abs.
    And Fury, 35, has already signed to fight Oleksandr Usyk right after, in what will be the heavyweight division’s first four-belt unification.
    But the undefeated WBC champion has vowed not to mess with his winning formula as he told the Daily Mail: “It’s good to have a good body.
    “I would love to have a good body. But, I don’t have any hope of having a good body.

    “I have been training for well over 20 years and I still haven’t got a good body.
    “I’ve been in a training camp, living like a monk, for the past 12 weeks and I still don’t have a good body.
    “I didn’t have a good body when I was in my teens, so never mind clocking onto 40 years old. But, the one thing I’ve learnt is this isn’t a bodybuilding contest. 
    “Although I don’t look a man who can do long distance or run for 20 miles, I am a man who can do that.

    TYSON FURY VS FRANCIS NGANNOU: ALL THE DETAILS YOU NEED AHEAD OF HUGE CROSSOVER CLASH
    CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS
    “I think of myself as an old fashioned kind of guy who can go in there and have a fight, it doesn’t really matter what I look like. It’s about getting the victory. 
    “If I had a ten-pack and I looked like Adonis – completely unbelievable and I wasn’t winning, it’s pointless. So I don’t really care about being fat. 

    “I actually embrace being fat because my love handles separate me from the rest of the world, ever in history. There’s never been anyone like me and there never will be.
    “That’s what makes me so tough and that’s what makes me, me. If you said to me, ‘Right Tyson, we will give you the opportunity to get rid of the fat on you and we will give you a full six pack,’ I wouldn’t take it because that’s not me.”
    I actually embrace being fat because my love handles separate me from the rest of the world, ever in history. Tyson Fury
    Fury pointed to genetics as a reason for his frame and also threw his brothers under the bus too.
    He said: “I am fat now, I was fat as a baby and I will be fat on my death bed.
    “We’re all fat. Hughie is fat, Shane’s fat, my dad’s fat and even my mum’s fat. I hope she’s not watching this. But, we’re a fat family.
    “He trains every day, my brother Hughie, like unbelievable. He’ll run, train, box.

    “I am the same. Two-three times a day, in or out of camp but I’ve always been fat.
    “Even when I got down to 17 stone, like this, I still had love handles. It’s my trademark for sure.”

    Davis vs Garcia result: Gervonta Davis KOs Ryan Garcia with sickening ‘ghost punch’ body shot in Las Vegas showdown

    GERVONTA DAVIS propelled himself into superstardom with a brutal stoppage victory over Ryan Garcia. The American known as ‘Tank’ had Garcia on the floor twice in the blockbuster bout in Las Vegas, and the second time was enough to end the fight in round seven.

    A crippling left to the body caused a delayed reaction from Garcia, who agonisingly dropped to his feet and failed to beat the count.
    Davis now has 29 wins as he maintained his unbeaten record in the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
    Davis, 28, said: “I’m definitely the face of boxing. Abso-f***ing-lutely.”
    He added: “I was excited to be part of this event I remember coming up in Golden Gloves and seeing Floyd fight at the MGM and it was crazy.

    “I just saw Rihanna perform at the Super Bowl and I was like, ‘That’s going to be me.’ Now we’re here.
    “It definitely matched the dream but the job isn’t done until I retire. I’m gonna keep my head down, stay humble and continue to work.”
    Garcia – who pushed so hard for two years to make the dream fight a reality – suffered his first loss in 24 professional bouts.
    Garcia, 24, said after defeat: “I’m good. Tank is a great fighter.

    “I was honoured to be in the ring with a great fighter and I respect him a lot. You know how the business goes. You’re a good man, bro.”
    It was Garcia, 24, who started the quicker of the two in the 136lb catchweight clash, flashing out his jab and left hook.
    Davis, 28, began on the defence, looking to cover up and gage his timing and range.
    And the fight kicked into life in round two as Garcia came out swinging, forcing Davis to cover up and grab on.
    But as the social media sensation threw his trademark left hook, Davis ducked underneath and replied with a beautiful left hand.
    It put Garcia on the seat of his pants and the tide was turned from there on.

    Davis took control from that moment, growing more active with his jab as Garcia looked to land his left to head and body.
    Back-and-forth action ensued in the fourth as both traded hooks and combinations with the bout really heating up.
    Davis began to get on the front foot, stalking Garcia as he tried to counter with his razor sharp left over the top.
    Garcia showed glimpses of discomforting Davis in round six, with a sharp reply catching the ex-world champion’s attention.
    But in round seven – in a blink and you’ll miss it moment – the Floyd Mayweather protege sunk in a savage body shot.
    A sneaky left hand to Garcia’s midsection had the youngster reeling backwards and eventually down to his knees.

    He desperately tried to catch his breath and make it to his feet but the damage was done.
    The referee’s count hit ten and declared Davis the winner, on the biggest night of his life.
    He said: “I saw his facial expression and that’s what made me take it to him.
    “It was a good shot. I thought he was going to get up. I like to play mind games.
    “When he was looking at me I was looking at him like trying to tell ‘get up’ but he shook his head and said no.”
    Garcia bravely tried to rise before the count hit ten but he lacked the oxygen in his lungs to do so.

    He admitted: “He just caught me with a good shot.
    “I don’t want to make no excuses. He caught me with a good shot I just couldn’t recover and that’s was it.
    “That’s all I’ve got to say, he caught me with a good body shot, it snuck under me and caught me good.
    “I’m not going to say nothing but yeah, I couldn’t breathe. I was going to get back up but I just couldn’t get up.”
    The pay-per-view super-fight – between to unbeaten stars in their prime – was billed as one to save the sport and crown its new face.

    And after Davis secured yet another win, with a record amount of eyes watching, he declared himself the boxing’s new boss.
    He roared: “I’m definitely the face of boxing absof***inglutely.”

    “Then, just like against Freiburg, we were hit by another long-range goal out of the blue.
    “Before that, we had a great chance to make it 1-0 through Jamal Musiala. After that we were more error-prone.
    “Until the 2-0 goal, it was an even match. The result is bitter, of course.”
