Supporters voiced their concerns for boxing legend Butterbean following his return to the wrestling scene.
The American, known by his birth name Eric Esch, rose to fame in the 1990s and early 2000s, renowned for his knockout power and his formidable 26 STONE frame.

In addition to boxing, he has engaged in kickboxing, MMA, and professional wrestling, including a run with WWE.
Butterbean’s last boxing match took place in 2013, where he faced defeat against Kirk Lawton in Australia.
Since hanging up his gloves, Butterbean has undergone a remarkable change, losing an incredible 16 stone with the help of wrestler Diamond Dallas Page.
He recently made his way back to the wrestling ring to compete against Minoru Suzuki in Las Vegas.
However, at the age of 58, fans have raised alarms, with one commenting, “What the hell is going on.”
Another questioned, echoing Johnny Knoxville’s notable inquiry: “Is Butterbean okay?”
On a positive note, one supporter stated: “Honestly, I don’t care if the match was any good. Just seeing Butterbean move around is pretty fantastic.”
Another added: “Critics can debate the match, and justifiably so, but it’s splendid to see Butterbean active and up on his feet.”
Butterbean has also called out YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul and former champion Mike Tyson following his significant weight loss journey.
This legendary boxer utilized yoga and dietary changes to evolve from a wheelchair-bound state back to competing in wrestling.
