The former World’s strongest man Eddie Hall recently had a boxing match with another former world’s strongest man Hafthor Björnsson.
It was labeled the heaviest boxing match in history, which it undoubtedly was, with both men weighing around 150 kgs before the fight.
During the fight’s buildup, both men talked trash to each other, especially in the face-off and press conference.

The face-off wasn’t better where both men argued for 20 minutes straight and threw insults at one another.
Then we also saw the press conference where things escalated when Eddie told Thor’s mum to quiet down.
Thor lost his temper and attempted to throw an energy drink at Eddie Hall.
The fight was because of the 2017 World’s Strongest Man when Eddie Hall won the title, and Thor made a public statement saying he was robbed.
Things didn’t get any better between the two strongmen when Thor beat Eddie’s deadlift world record by one kg when he pulled 501 kg’s at his home gym and live-streamed the event.
