    Marton Fucsovics blew tennis fans away with his ripped physique and 'Hulk' like body after winning his Australian Open first round match.

    The unseeded Hungarian tore off his shirt to celebrate after fighting back to take a 4-6, 7-5, 2-6, 7-6, 6-2 victory over Federico Coria in Melbourne. The world No.78 showed his fine physic and was labelled 'Marton Hulkovics' by some fans.

    After his revealing celebration, tennis influencer Bastien Fachan complimented the star on his physic. He said: "Fucsovics has no right being this ripped." Another fan of the Hungarian was @axhawk who added: "There’s always been a reason I like Marton Fucsovics. Wonder what it is."

    The six-foot-two tennis player has previously shown his toned physique to fans while playing for Hungary at last year's Davies Cup. Despite his obvious power and strength Fucsovics has won just one tennis title back in 2018 and failed to reach the third round in any of the Grand Slam tournaments last year.

    Fans wondered if being so muscly was advantageous in tennis, @marton8_kerekes added: "He has been looking great physically for a while now, but not sure if it is the ideal shape for tennis tho." Another tennis follower @slomo_delpo raised the same question and added: "Doesn't appear to help him that much, tennis-wise"

    The Hungarian had a career-high world ranking of 31 and reached the quarter-final of Wimbledon in 2021 – when he was beaten by eventual winner Novak Djokovic. However, last year Fucsovics won just £15,920 on the ATP Tour and fans suggested an alternative career if he walks away from tennis.

    @AnjaVojvodic78 commented: "He looks like a professional body builder — respect to him!" They were supported by @CopyNinja918 who added: "Bro this is a tennis tournament not a Mr Olympia one."

    With a Hulk physic other fans believed that the Hungarian could turn his hand to UFC fighting and would be a formidable opponent in the Octagon. @ajafarey was one of those who said: "It’s clear he’s head(ing) to UFC if things don’t work out in tennis this year."
