After leaving his fighting career, Lyndon Arthur has a significant presence on social media, creating funny and relatable videos that consistently receive thousands of views.<\/p>\n
In the world of boxing, “King Arthur” is hardly known for his attractive personality. In fact, he’s often been accused of looking “grumpy” – especially during fight week, when a light heavyweight opponent is intensely focused on his fight at the weights.<\/p>\n
The reality, however, is that Arthur likes to laugh and joke just like everyone else, which is why he became a comedian on social media under the pseudonym ‘some1zgot2sayit<\/a>‘.<\/p>\n Wearing a cap with his own brand some1zgot2sayit embroidered on the front, the 34-year-old explained to Boxing News how it all came about.<\/p>\n “Apparently no one knew I was funny.<\/p>\n “I made a video of me buying my son shorts (overpriced) and it just went viral. So I thought, ‘Okay, people like me are talking.’<\/p>\n \u201cI’ve never been a talker and I’ve always been a bit reserved, but being in front of the camera has opened up a different side of me.<\/p>\n “I think people think I’ve become more approachable. I’m known in boxing as a laid-back and moody person. But now people have seen a different side of me and say, ‘Your page is funny; keep doing what you’re doing.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The fact that Arthur is now much more approachable and generally less “grumpy” can be partly explained by his relationship with the nutritionist.<\/p>\n It came ahead of his trilogy showdown with Anthony Yarde in April 2025, with the Mancunian losing by unanimous decision but producing arguably one of the best performances of his career.<\/p>\n U his last match against Brad Rhee<\/a>also Arthur put on a dynamic display over 12 rounds, earning himself a majority decision victory in November.<\/p>\n Thus, his work with a nutritionist improved not only his overall mood, but also his performances, which can be largely explained by the less grueling challenge of gaining 175 pounds.<\/p>\n \u201cI used to lose weight myself by running six miles every day for two weeks before the fight.<\/p>\n “Now I barely run the week of a fight. If I could give any advice to any fighter, it would be to see a nutritionist and get the weight right.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Perhaps it was this change in training that gave Arthur a boost of energy in his last fight, allowing him to overcome a second-round knockdown against Rhee.<\/p>\n After sparring with the 28-year-old a few years ago, Arthur admits he may have underestimated his opponent a little but ended up showing enough boxing smarts to emerge victorious.<\/p>\n “Brad Rea shocked me, to be honest. He said in the press conference that I still saw him as a skinny red-haired kid, and I kind of did, but he came in there and showed his heart and was able to humble me.<\/p>\n “Fair play to him – he made some of my best shots – but I think I definitely showed that I’ve still got a little bit in me.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Following his win over Rhea, Arthur was initially told he would have a rematch with Liam Cameron, whom he had previously tagged, on May 9, and was then offered an alternative domestic fight against Lewis Edmondson, who he will face at St Mary’s Stadium in Southampton on Saturday.<\/a><\/p>\n Apart from that, the former European champion is not entirely sure what opportunities will present themselves, but eventually sees himself involved in further All-Britain encounters.<\/p>\n “I’m sure boxing will let me know (when it’s time to retire). Hopefully it won’t happen in the ring, but I’m sure someone will tell me when it’s time to stop hitting the head.<\/p>\n “But I feel fresh. I’m not slacking off in the gym; I’m not slowing down. I did 10- and 12-round spars five weeks ago because I thought I was getting ready for May 9, so I feel like I’ve got a few more years left.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n As he prepares to meet Edmondson, Arthur is acutely aware that the clock is ticking. However, it seems that he is more committed to his work than ever before.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/div>\n\n
