Social media stars Halal Ham and Salt Papi dropped a combined weight of 45lb in an effort to get in shape for their boxing match in London tonight.
The pair are known for their comical videos on YouTube and Tik Tok, and agreed to fight on the undercard of Deji's boxing return against Alex Wassabi tonight.
They appear to have taken their training seriously, with Halal Ham, whose real name is Hamad Khan, losing a whopping 33lb and Salt Papi down over 11lb ahead of their meeting.
The pair both joked about their physiques in the build-up to the fight, although Papi generally opted to allow his coach to speak for him during media appearances.
And Khan has said that he had to battle depression after working his way back into the YouTube boxing scene following a contractual battle with a major record label who stopped him from posting.
"I lost 15kg here," he told Mirror Fighting ahead of the fight. "I was 110kg before I started and now I'm 95."
He was last seen on the big stage winning his fight on the KSI vs Logan Paul undercard against fellow social media star Jrizzy Jeremy.
But he signed with a major label for his music, who told him not to post on social media without their approval which caused his career to take a big hit.
"One of the main reasons I'm doing this fight is that after my last fight I got signed to a big record label and they wouldn't really let me post," he explained.
"I couldn't be active, but this last year I've been paying the label back, I'm out of there now, a free agent so I need to build my YouTube back and get back into the hype."
And Khan admits that the battle for is career cost him greatly as far as his mental health, saying that he considered suicide at his lowest ebb.

Ultimately, boxing training helped him to get in a better headspace, and he hopes it will be enough to earn him a second big win.
"These last few months were the darkest moments of my life," he said. "I was driving in my Rolls Royce and there were times I just wanted to crash it.
"But because of this training, that's got me away from that and I'm in a very good place now.
"I'm ready, before training camp he'd have smoked me but now the training is there, there's been blood sweat and tears, the cardio is ready and I'm going to win."
