Fluffy's shedding the pounds

Comedian Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias is losing weight for health reasons, and is reportedly taking up boxing, after he cancelled his comedy tour earlier this month. TMZ.com reports that the comedian, who cancelled the tour citing “health and emotional issues”, is hitting the gym and boxing with celebrity trainer Ricky Funes five times a week, for two hours a day.

Gabriel had reportedly weighed more than 160 kilos when he cancelled the tour, and has already lost around 10 kgs, and is aiming to lose another 20 at least before restarting his tour. Trainer Ricky has previously worked with pop singer Justin Bieber and boxing champion Floyd Mayweather.
