Posted by

As you know former Manchester United and England captain Rio Ferdinand is attempting to become a professional boxer.

The 38 year old has signed up to Betfair’s ‘Defender to Contender’ campaign where the betting brand will aid Ferdinand in his attempt to gain a British Boxing Board of Control licence before he competes in his first professional outing.

The ex-professional footballer has kept himself in good shape despite retiring and he’s back in the gym full-time now as he prepares for his new challenge.

Ferdinand gave fans a sneak peak into his training routine with a video of him doing knee-ups whilst receiving 4 rib shots from one of his training partners.

Ferdinand will be used to getting knocks and bumps from his football days but his body will discover a whole new form of pain in his new training camp and it seems he isn’t holding back based on the video below.
