Abdu Rozik shows off body transformation as he claims boxing has helped him grow ahead of debut fight vs Erali
ABDU ROZIK showed off his body transformation ahead of his upcoming boxing clash.
The social media sensation will be lacing up his gloves to take on rival Erali Boyqobilov as part of the Social Knockout 3 bill in Dubai – with long-term foe Hasbulla Magomedov waiting in the wings.
Rozik spoke to fans ahead of the showdown and revealed he has undergone a significant body transformation thanks to his hard work training.
Rozik – from Tajikistan but now based in the UAE – claims to have grown in height as a result of his training, which has also increased his muscle mass.
He said in an Instagram video showing off his transformation: “Hey guys! On July 6 I have my boxing debut and so many people are questioning if I am disabled and why I am doing boxing.
“No guys! Before I came to Dubai I was 97cm. Now [I am] 115cm, because I’m doing boxing. I am training.
“Boxing made my bones bigger and boxing means I am feeling [like] a man.
“Please guys, so many people are not giving their own children a chance to make their dream come true.
“Please give them a chance, they can do it. They want to show the whole world they are human beings.
“Please support us, give us some love. I love all of you.

“A lot of people think I can’t marry, I can’t drive a car, I can’t fight. Why? I am the same as all of you guys, a human being. And I can do anything I want in my life.”
Rozik, 20, was diagnosed with dwarfism as a child and has had to postpone his wedding to fiancee Amira to train for the bout.
