Comments Thread For: Photos: Thor Bjornsson, Eddie Hall - Set For Grudge Match Clash

[billeau2]

I think it has to do with Thor breaking Halls deadlift record at his house by like a pound or whatever it was but not on a stage with judges etc . I havent really followed it , but my friend who is also a former arm wrestling champion is Larry Wheels manager who is in Thors VIP section so last time I had spoken to Devin Larratt who was Thors last opponent was on a podcast about a certain individual very popular athlete that I arm wrestled a long time ago that he arm wrestled so that was kind of cool that I had that in common with arguably the best Arm wrestler in the states ……..anyway with these guys I get info how theyre doing etc etc first hand if I want . So I’ll be pulling for Thor who is by far the better boxer anyway I don’t know how he’s the underdog watching Hall box ? Lol But I’ve seen stranger things than a powerlifter losing to another .

Makes sense. There was apparently some snub before the deadlift also? At the actual competition. You filled in some good info regarding that record... I asked because these guys are seemingly really vengeful of each other.

Hall is not the underdog? REally?! I wonder how those odds were determined...

I don’t know ,I don’t want to say anything bad about the guy but Hall is extremely poor in skills . I mean I’ve taking fights on a two day awareness and never looked that bad even after a hard nights drinking going into the ring the next day . Lol

That doesn’t mean he can’t win ,Thor isn’t Tyson Fury but Hall makes him look like he is ,but I guess one punch is the presumed reason Hall is the favored but I don’t know what they are basing that on ?

I think it also goes beyond just a fight the winner gets a huge profile boost , particularly for Thor who could put on the boxing fights . I don’t really see Hall persuing that . I pitched the boxing thing to Larry Wheels handler awhile back I thought that would be the new thing with these strong man competitors so I would definitely have a voice in that in input because they know who I am so I wouldn’t mind seeing Wheels vs Thor . Lol. I gave some info to Larratt ,doesn’t look like he followed it though . Lol

I saw a Thor’s other fights and he wasn’t the worse non-boxer I’ve seen, you can see he’s worked at it. But sometimes I think when you get a guy like Thor in the ring with a real boxer, it’s easier on the stamina because the boxer will be measured and move around with you at sensible pace. Two non boxers on the other hand usually results in two people swinging away and gassing, if it’s starts like that from round 1, both will be dying by round 2.

yeah... the amateur tendency to assume a big punch, from a guy who can't really set it up, will come and just catch the other guy... lol. It would be a great little aside for boxing! Something like Wheels versus Thor!

I don't know that much about either guy, but I thought Thor was the one who has been more active with boxing, exhibitions and stuff, and assumed he would be betting fave, but Hall is. Any reason why you think that is? I might place a bet on Thor, nothing major, but £200 returns £520 - £320 profit plus stake returned. Might do something like that. Nash out.

Lots of ignorant Brit casuals buying into hall's bull****. I tried to put £300 on Thor but they capped the wager at 133.33 on William hill and skybet

I think it’s 2 minutes rounds , Thor will be better at knowing how to conserve energy. I’d be surprised if Thor is spent in that time frame . I think Hall will realize he’s in over his head after 2 rounds if it’s still going ,he’s a very determined guy I think it will be pushed here on how far his body tells him to quit before his will .
