Eddie sounds like Cartman from South Park in that vid.
He looks like him, too. Hope the fat manchild gets brutally knocked out.

The fight should be held in Ukraine and refereed by Putin.

I reckon Thor will easily win against Hall

He will use his jab, reach and footwork.

Tyson Fury is also inviting Thor to join his camp to get abs like him, so he has some experience with boxing

Who wouldn't want abs like Fury?

The whole excitement around this fight was 2 big strongmen going at it, both lose a ton of weight killed the whole vibe, why the hell did they do this? And it should be bare knucle tons of people would've paid for that.

Dude is just randomly guessing what Eddie is taking may as well say he is on chicken and broccoli

Agreed.

All this pre-fight training, weight loss prep, is not necessary.

As if this fight really means anything.

Just sell the tickets, get in the ring and throwdown.

That's exactly what will happen.

Hall will gas out in a round or two.

I think Hall is funny and i find his videos entertaining, but this has become very lame at this point.

Yeah I used to enjoy Eddie Hall's stuff but he's become tiresome in the build up to this "fight".
I don't know how this match-up will go but I think best case is for Thor to win (which I think will likely be the case via decision if Hall doesn't get him with a good shot in the 30sec flurry he'll come with before gassing out). Hall may be unbearable in defeat or victory.

But mainly I just want it all to be over!

hall's circle dont like thor (shaw etc) while most of the other competitors do.
kind of girly-shit anyways.
thor didnt "cheat" he got called on a bad rep, he thought was good so he whined to the ref/judge.
all eddie does is whine about his records being broken, and acts like a child.
thor seems much more 'chill' professional than hall.
hall acts like a 12-yr old social-media star, which is sort of odd, but it is what it is.
hall started the online war with him with constant crying.

honestly i think eddie's going to hurt thor, the guy is a dangerous whack-job.
Eddie won WSM 2017 fair and square. If you watch the contest it is clear he was stronger in the shoulder press. He lifted after Thor and stopped after he exceeded Thor's reps. But he could have done more. In strongman they sometimes stop once they have the required reps to preserve energy for the next lifts. Then after that Thor complained about his rep count. he wanted them to adjust the number up. That was a total prick move from Thor. As I said Eddie would have added one more rep in that case if Thor's presses were not disqualified.

Eddie also deadlifted more than Thor at WSM 2017. He was clearly the winner. So for Thor to cast doubt on that win is a dick move. He literally lifted less than Eddie and looked weaker in the shoulder press.

That being said Eddie should just stay quiet and let his fighting speak for itself. We'll see what happens. I still like both of them regardless of their shortcomings.

We'll have to see what happens. Hall was a high quality swimmer. I personally think he can be very dangerous if he connects with Thor. Body and head shots will be dangerous coming from him since he is a powerful puncher. And his midsection is strong. It might be big but he does have abs. I read he grew up fighting so perhaps he is used to punches...

I don't follow powerlifting.

You don’t follow strongman, either, apparently.

Eddie saying that the slimmed down Thor looks like a "skinny anorexic dog with aids" was the best bit of the drama  ;D

Agreed. In this boxing match though I have Thor taking it, Eddie just seemed to be nonchalant about it like his arrogance would carry him through to victory.  Thor has put in massive work and taken this very serious, Eddie....tore his bicep throwing a drunken bar fight looping attempt at a body shot.
Liar!!!!Filt!!!!

Doesn't seem like Thor has prepared for the mind games in combat sports. He just practiced boxing?

Eddie's a prick for talking about his mom. I seriously hope he gets a beatdown on saturday.

Why do you say Hall is a powerful puncher? Has he demonstrated knock out power in other fights?
