You’ve obviously never watched much WSM, for big fellas they are very fit.

Different sort of fit man, very different. I've seen footage of Hafthor sparring and after a coupla rounds he literally drops to the floor panting. Finished. These big dudes are just carrying too much muscle, man.

You ever boxed at all... even competitve sparring? Time in my 20s was I was cycling 40 miles a day working shifts at a physically intensive job... I was fit man. But three, four rounds of serious sparring and I'd be a panting sweating wreck barely able to defend myself, man.


That said these these big boys have had all year to get ready for this, so if they've put the time in in the ring and cut some of that muscle mass they might be able to put on a half decent show.

How very 2020. Crossover cash in garbage.

He did not. That was an 18inch deadlift. Thor still has the record, despite what English fans will tell you.

Debatable also. Not sure how I feel about that one

They are no boxers but Eddie´s short hooks look scary, for a 350 lbs guy he´s explosive af.

The Bob Sapp fights were hilarious. He usually gassed out after a few rounds, but if he caught a smaller man cleanly with one of his wild hooks, they got thrown around the ring like ragdolls.

This is gonna be a fun novelty fight. These giant mofos either going to be having a staring contest or half dead of exhaustion by 1 minute into the 2nd round. I'm rooting on a crazy one round KO fight.
