Eddie Hall vs Thor Bjornsson: The Heaviest Boxing Match Ever?

The much-anticipated boxing match between strongmen giants Eddie Hall and Hafthor 'Thor' Bjornsson is finally set to take place on March 19 at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium. The match will be streamed live and for free on Segi TY.

Both fighters have been training hard, shedding over 50kg each to get into fighting shape. Hall weighed in at a massive 142kg, while Bjornsson tipped the scales at 152kg.

The Icelander, who is also an actor known for his role as Ser Gregor 'The Mountain' Clegane in Game of Thrones, has been preparing for this match with exhibition bouts against professional boxers. He sent a strong message to Hall after stopping Devon Larratt, an arm wrestling star, in round one of their heavyweight contest at Fight Night-3 in Dubai last September.

Hall, who is being backed by his fellow strongmen, is confident that he will knock Bjornsson out cold. 'I respect you as an athlete, and I know you're training hard, but I am going to knock you out,' Hall said in a statement.

Bjornsson, on the other hand, is determined to prove himself against one of the strongest men in the world. 'I'm coming for you, and I'm knocking you out - you're going down,' he declared ahead of the clash.

The two strongmen have been training together, but they are set to put their differences aside when they step into the ring on March 19. It's going to be a blast, and fans around the world are eagerly anticipating this epic showdown between two giants of strength.
