Salt Papi has shown off his incredible weight loss transformation ahead of his fight on the undercard of KSI vs Tommy Fury this weekend.

The 29-year-old, real name Nathaniel Bustamante, is set to go head-to-head with Slim Albaher as he looks to extend his record to 4-1 with victory in Manchester.

Logan Paul, King Kenny and Astrid Wett are also set to take to the ring at the AO Arena, with a star-studded event expected on October 14.

Following a series of bouts, KSI and Fury are set to both put their undefeated records on the line, as they face off in a 12-round bout.

Bustamante's boxing endeavours have seen him embark on a remarkable body transformation journey along the way.

Back in 2022, he made his boxing debut against Halal Ham, weighing a whopping 210lbs at the time.

Since then, he has dropped close to 30lbs and his side-by-side transformation photos are a credit to the work he has clearly dedicated over the past twelve months.

His most recent loss against Anthony Taylor has also seen him drop another 20lbs in the process.

Having been praised for his natural ability inside the ring, Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn has also quickly jumped to the praise of Salt Papi, insisting how he believes he could mix it as a professional.

After his KO win against Josh Breuckner, Hearn offered his advice the way of the up and coming YouTuber-turned-boxer.

He said during an appearance on the DAZN Boxing Show : "Salt Papi can fight. Salt Papi's my favourite. I wanna turn Salt Papi professional.

"Leave him [at his current weight class], he's a man of the people, he's got a belly like me, we love him."
