Fans took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the transformation, though they weren't all as encouraging as the fighter were.
"So I did everything he said, to the letter," White said about Brecka (h/t Daily Mail). "My legs were so f***** up 13 weeks ago, I couldn’t tie my shoes. I couldn’t bend over to tie my shoes, because my legs were f***** up. I could barely walk some days."
He continued, "I feel like I’m 35-years-old again. Swear to God, I feel like I’m 35 again."
