These two fighting machines are set to get in the ring on 2nd April 2022 in London.
And of course, both fighters have taken part in a healthy level of mud-slinging on social media in the lead up to the date. In November 2021, Iranian Hulk posted a bizarre workout video of him punching concrete walls, ripping apart melons, bending metal and t**t tyres with a sledgehammer.
