To compete at middleweight Tyler Denny must tip the scales at no more than 11 stone, six pounds, nearly two stone lighter than his natural, everyday weight.
Here he describes a typical day in his life during the two-month training camp preparing for a European title fight.
7.30am: Back home for breakfast. Every day it is the same, porridge and eggs. Then if I’ve got the kids it is time to take them to school, or do a bit of work around the house. 12.30pm Back home for lunch. It is chicken and rice normally, always healthy. When you are further out from the fight you can maybe have the odd cheat meal or two but I try to avoid that. My girlfriend, Emmaleigh, cooks most of my meals, which is a huge help. She also does a lot of the washing, of which there is loads when you are training and getting through three lots of clothes a day. I couldn't do it without her.5pm It is back to training.
