“I will be in the best shape of my life in September this year and I will knock Eddie Hall out. He said: “I have huge respect for this sport, this is just the beginning. Thor will fight again soon in preparation for his bout vs Hall, and has vowed to KNOCK Hall out. It was quite exciting, it was a great set-up and it was class having a crowd finally back watching boxing. ![]() The exhibition is over and big Thor hits like a horse. Ward said after the fight: “What a night. Ward recovered and finished the three-round fight strongly, but says being hit by Thor was like being hit by a horse! Game of Thrones star Thor, 32, dropped Ward with a big right which skimmed Ward’s shoulder in the second round. Hafthor Bjornsson gave a good solid showing on his boxing debut in a lively exhibition draw vs Irish cruiserweight Steven Ward in Dubai.Ģ018 word’s strongest man Thor was fighting in preparation for his HUGE boxing bout vs strongman rival Eddie Hall later this year in September. “Because he was the Mountain from Game of Thrones, a huge TV star, people listened and people believed him." “Hafthor Bjornsson and his entourage have been smearing my title and the referee Colin Bryce’s reputation for the last three years. ![]() “For the last three years, instead of answering questions about how I defeated some of the greatest strongmen to ever live, Hafthor included, instead I had people questioning whether I really won it or not. “This is a quote from Hafthor Bjornsson: ‘I was robbed.’ “Before I even got home to my friends and family to tell them the news, one man took bad sportsmanship to a whole new level and it was plastered all over the world’s media. they've had their fun now these guys should move on to other things, especially Eddie.Eddie Hall can hardly wait to get in the ring with Hafthor Bjornsson, who he accused of "smearing him with lies" by labelling him a cheat after his World's Strongest Man victory.Īhead of Bjornsson's fight with Steven Ward, Hall said: “When I achieved my dream of winning World’s Strongest Man three years ago, I couldn’t get wait to get back to Britain to thank everyone and share the title. Both took some shots and Eddie kept getting up and while he did gas out they both held up better cardio wise than I thought they would. Still the fight was pretty entertaining and have to respect the chin on both these guys. Knew Thor would win, Eddie was clearly full of hot air this whole time and I doubt even listened to trainers because I doubt any legit trainer would tell him his goofy style was any good and allow him to ignore all fundamentals like he did. Someone should have told him you cant be RJJ at 350 lbs and with no talent for boxing lol.Īt the time Eddie brushed all the comments off saying of course he'll have his hands up in the fight and pretending he was sandbagging and he was "beating pros" behind the scenes. Also showboating with hands down taunting like he's Roy Jones Jr, with 1/10th the speed and skill. Hands not up, just trying to throw the same predictable haymaker over and over. Kinda cracks me up Eddie ending up boxing exactly in the way he was getting flamed for on his first boxing training videos 1-2 years ago.
