    Some fighters let themselves go after retiring. Why do you think this is? Is it because boxers have to go on a strict diet to make weight? And who were some fighters who got fat after retiring?

    He was fat during his career as well. Fat Hatton was is normal state, it was quite amazing how he whipped himself into shape.

    Lennox Lewis got pretty fat for a bit, but he's in pretty good shape these days.

    Foreman got fat after he retired then of course made his comeback

    Holmes got fat too.

    the worst case i have seen in the uk is lloyd honeyghan

    i liked him as a fighter and he is obviously enjoying himself in retirement .

    great fighter to watch but tyson fury looks anorexic next to him.

    Popó Freitas - but unlike most of those named, he came back and picked up a solid win in the ring AFTER he got super bloated.
