In this episode of Big Fellas Weight Loss for Men, Mark sits down with Anthony Ogogo, Olympic medal winner, former professional boxer, professional wrestler, and now a coach helping men lose weight and build healthier lives.

Anthony opens up about the brutal discipline required to make weight as a boxer, and why weight management in sport is about far more than simply dropping pounds. He shares what years of boxing taught him about focus, resilience, pressure, and the mental side of transforming your body.

The conversation also explores Anthony’s move from boxing into professional wrestling, how he adapted after major career challenges, and why he now uses his experience to help men change their health, confidence, and mindset.

This episode goes beyond weight loss and looks at what real transformation means — building strength, building muscle, changing your identity, and becoming the man you want to be.

Part 2 continues next week.

• Making weight in boxing requires extreme discipline, commitment, and mental toughness.
• Anthony has experienced the highs and lows of elite sport, from Olympic success to major setbacks.
• Weight loss is not just about getting lighter — it’s about becoming healthier and stronger.
• Building muscle plays a key role in long-term health, confidence, and metabolism.
• True transformation often means changing how you see yourself, not just what you weigh.
• Anthony’s move into professional wrestling shows the importance of resilience, adaptability, and finding a new purpose.

In this episode of Big Fellas Weight Loss for Men, Mark sits down with Mike, who shares the incredible story behind his transformation and losing more than 65 kilograms.

For Mike, everything changed when his father suffered a serious health scare linked to obesity. That moment forced him to take a hard look at his own lifestyle and realise where he was heading if nothing changed.

Mike opens up about joining Man v Fat, how the community and accountability helped him stay consistent, and why support from other men made such a huge difference during the tough moments.

This is a powerful conversation about family, motivation, mindset, and proving to yourself that change is possible, even when it feels overwhelming.
