Joe Fournier has been sensationally selected to fight David Haye next
It was announced that David Haye, former heavyweight champion of the world, will be making a comeback to boxing.
He will also fight his mate Fournier on Oscar De La Hoya’s undercard September 11.
Last time, Fournier KO'd Reggae singer Reykon in the undercard to YouTuber Jake Paul’s beating of Ben Askren.
After turning pro in 2015, Fournier was once ranked 11th by the WBA in the light-heavyweight division. At that time, he was considered the best British fighter.
This is a great feat for Hammersmith's lad, who owns superclubs all over the globe, including the exclusive Bonbonniere in London’s Mayfair area.
He spent four more years in the squared circle, until he was beaten by Reykon in April.
Sky Sports spoke with the British entrepreneur, who said that he was falling back into bad habits.
"My businesses consist primarily of bars, clubs, and restaurants in all the great places. My friends are able to visit me in Mykonos easily - one beer turns into two, and three becomes three.
"That can lead to bad behavior. It is possible to be depressed without being myself.
Boxing is great for my mental health. Tyson Fury is a strong advocate for this. It helps me to stop drinking, keeps my health good and sets me up for success."
Joe was the son of a wealthy family. He attended the Lycee Francais Charles De Gaulle de Londres, where he graduated in 1997.
The American Community School was where he studied.
After his parents divorced, he moved to Hounslow but was forced to live in slums.
He switched schools and went to Ashton House Primary School, then Isleworth & Syon School.
He met Mo Farah at the latter and has remained close to him ever since.
Fournier once stated that he went from driving a chauffeur-driven car to school each day to riding the bus.
Joe is as good in the ring as it gets, with nine knockouts from nine of his professional fights. Joe could have been a professional basketball player.
He was so skilled on the court and such a natural leader that he was selected to be the England basketball team's captain 43 times.
But, a serious scaphoid injuries hampered his progress and his basketball career was soon ended.
Joe, a naturally fit man, decided to get into personal training and open his own gym.
He said he was a trainer, PR person and cleaner during the growth of his business.
Joe was able to secure some very exclusive clients such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna and others.
As his stardom in the fitness industry grew, he even trained stuntmen from James Bond films.
Joe published Red Carpet Workout in 2008, and received an advance of PS30k. He still receives royalties today.
He then sold his business to a FTSE 100 company for an undisclosed amount in 2012.
Joe, aged 29, decided to invest his money in nightclubs.
He took over Whisky mist and made a difference in their lives, helping them to make a profit for first time in many years.
His business empire soon included the Rose Club, Bonbonniere London, and Streaky Gin. The recent addition of Bonbonniere mykonos was also a success.
Joe entertained Paris Hilton, 50 Cent and Nicole Scherzinger at his private bars.
Joe said, "It was really hard to get people to do lunges, eat salad, and it was easy to get them pissed off, drink gin, tonic, party and eat pizza."
Joe's clubs make him between $20 and $30 million per year. He's worth more than PS100m.
He often rents his private helicopter and jet whenever he travels.
It opens doors to people at the top, such as David Haye, an ex-British heavyweight.
Joe was thrilled when Joe, a former world champ boxer, allowed him to train at his Hayemaker gym, now closed in south London. It was the beginning of a new chapter in his life.
Joe stated that his first bar was with Barry Jones, a former world champion boxing champion.
"Having grew up in Hounslow's tough neighborhood, you are able to tell if you can punch and if your punches can be taken.
"A lot strength and conditioning coaches make it hard to box, and I was always better than other guys."
"But when you live well and have a girlfriend, you can have a curry that transforms into a pizza which turns into wine.
"And around five years ago, I broke up my long-term partner; I was fat, weighed in at 230lb and was a disgrace.
"The nightclubs hold a white collar boxing competition, but no other owners would take me on. If I were to face a staff member of another club, I'd have nothing to lose.
"But a good friend of mine wrote to me on Facebook that they had fought and I got in touch."
Joe made his debut in the Dominican Republic in late 2015. He defeated Jorge Burgos via knockout.
He said, "I wanted to win a fight in a professional fight so I could tell all my grandkids. But now I'm building something."
"My businesses are amazing and I am the sharpest person I have ever been."
"I used to drink a lot, but I have stopped drinking. People send me emails telling me that they have lost 20 lbs since following me on Instagram.
"I sent the guys I went to school to white collar boxing, and it has kept their marriage together.
"I don't think I will win a world championship, but it would be an amazing dream if I could win some kind of belt."
Joe's crowning glory was his WBA International win against Wilmer Mejia, which propelled him up in the boxing world.
He was selected as a late-replacement opponent to the Dominican, who was the favorite to win.
After dropping the first two rounds, Joe rocked Mejia in the 6th with an uppercut. Joe finished the brawler with a spectacular body blow in the 8th.
Superclubs were the way that this playboy celebrated his success.
He said, "It was a beer and then we went back to the hotel because I had to catch a plane at 5 am."
He will now have all eyes on him as he attempts to capture the impressive scalp of Haye, the former two-weight world champion.
