It was clear from Gharibi's fight against Bakhytovich that the Hulk did not know how to box. Gharabi's trainer Hamzeh Moradian admitted Gharibi was “too shy” to box in public classes, and claimed that Gharibi wanted to pull out of the fight just days before the event.
Despite this, Gharibi maintains a huge social media following, with one million people behind him on Instagram. Though many have left comments speculating whether the 30-year-old actually edits his pictures to make himself appear more hulk-like.
Now, Gharibi's account has only 14 posts left after he removed multiple images from his feed.

The sudden bulk-removal of pictures also comes after Gharibi's fight with the 'World's Scariest Man' was cancelled in April.
Martyn Ford, 39, was set to face Gharibi in the ring at the O2 Arena in London but their fight was called off amid concerns about Gharibi's mental wellbeing.

Speaking to The Mirror, Ford said: “I have genuine concerns about his mental health and how he’s feeling. It is who I am. I can’t fight someone who I genuinely believe can take his own life after the fight.
“As an outsider, people might say, ‘What are you on about?’ but from someone who was there, who saw him and the way he crumbled. We had a face-off and it was one little push. I looked in his eyes and then turned around and said to the guys, ‘There is no fight’.”
