The infamous chef, restaurateur and social media star otherwise known as Nusret Gökçe wants to jump from the hob and into the ring and swap frying pans for punch bags.

The salt-sprinkling 2017 assassin told YouTuber Rashed 'Money Kicks' Belhasa about his latest ambition during a visit to one of his multiple dining venues across the globe in Dubai.

Money Kicks aka previously 'Dubai's richest teenager', wrote on Instagram: "[Salt Bae] Told me he wants to fight!! Who do you want to see him fight?"

The pair can be seen in a clip on Money Kicks' YouTube channel, where the chef is cutting up a steak with gusto and posing for a picture together, with Bae admitting: "Rashid, I wanna do boxing."

Money Kicks is also set to fight against former world champion Floyd Mayweather at the Burj Al-Arab Jumeirah hotel in Dubai this February on the helipad at the top.

Money Kicks told Sky Sports about fighting Mayweather: "I never thought I would ever fight Floyd. He is the best fighter ever.

"When I was young, I would collect his The Money Team caps."

Fancy popping into Salt Bae's Nusr-Et Knightsbridge restaurant? You could be splashing out on a juicy £850 for one of Gökçe's Golden Tomahawk steaks. Worth it? Yes, until the bill comes.

Famous faces including David Beckham, Wayne Rooney and Naomi Campbell have all forked out on dining at Bae's money-burning restaurants.

Just think of all that money at steak...
