Former Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Akhtar was surrounded by many controversies during his cricket career. He was now and then making headlines on newspaper not only for his performances but because of his wrong attitude.

One of a known newspaper published that Akhtar had undergone the liposuction surgery to have extra fat removed from his body in Islamabad shortly after he returned from London after undergoing knee surgery.

And the news was immediately accepted by the fans and everyone triggered the pacer. Seeing all the rumours, he had to come forward and had to erase the false news.

I don’t need liposuction. I’m not fat, I’m a fit guy. I can reduce my weight by running. These claims have shocked my world. But I am a strong man and what people say about me just motivates me more,” he clarified in an interview with Australian newspaper ‘Sydney Morning Herald’.
