Boxing legend Butterbean, 57, shows off stunning body transformation after losing incredible 90 KILOS
BOXING legend Butterbean has showed off his incredible body transformation after losing 90 kilograms.
The 57-year-old, real name Eric Esch, looks a changed man thanks to a vigorous exercise regime.
Butterbean revealed he has been supported on his weight loss journey by former WWE star Diamond Dallas Page, who has helped several former fighters to rebuild their fitness.
Page hosts reality TV show ‘Change Or Die’, which helps participants lose weight.
Butterbean appeared on the show last year and he has been losing weight ever since, with the former pro now weighing in at 142kg – 91kg less than his high of 233kg.
It is a miraculous turnaround for the 77-10 fighter, who revealed his weight had made him feel depressed.
He told The Sun: “I went through a stage where I was looking at the end of my life – not that I was going to kill myself, but I was getting down, I was way overweight and just feeling down.”
But now the veteran is ready to return to the ring and is eyeing a clash with Mike Tyson or Jake Paul.
He told SunSport: “I’m not a typical boxer, I go out there to fight, I want to knock somebody out. Jake Paul or Mike Tyson.
“Jake Paul runs his mouth too much, he’s never fought nobody, I would love to fight him.

“But I think people would like to see me and Tyson go at it, which would be a hell of a draw.
“Me and Tyson are actually friends but I don’t mind fighting friends.”
