The Hafthor Björnsson vs. Eddie Hall boxing match will take place in one month!

For almost a year and a half, there has been talk of a boxing match between two strongman rivals - Hafthor Björnsson and Eddie Hall. The match between these two legends resulted two years ago when the Icelandic Björnsson managed to break Hall's deadlift record in his home gym. Eddie, however, did not recognize Björnsson's attempt because he broke it in his gym. Although records must only be broken at official competitions, in May 2020 the competitions were cancelled due to the covid situation, so the Icelandic set the record in his gym under the supervision of official judges.

The boxing match was originally scheduled for September 2021, but due to an injury to Hall, the fight was moved to March 2022. However, as they say, time flows like water and we can look forward to a spectacular boxing match between these two former strongmen in just a month's time.

"It's March. The fight is on. Let's fucking pray Eddie doesn't back down again! (laughs)" wrote Björnsson.

It's clear that everyone is trying to prepare for the fight as much as possible. Björnsson even lost around 60kg for the fight and his physique was unrecognizable! At the same time, he also had the idea of trying the bodybuilding path after boxing.

"Should I try bodybuilding after boxing? I'm reading Coleman's book right now and I'm excited. Love his story," Hafthor wrote

But preparation for the fight has not been underestimated by Hall, who is doing everything he can to obliterate the Icelander and his record, he said on his social media:

Just because you can't see it doesn't mean nothing is happening. I'm ready. Fight dates will be announced very soon. Stay tuned.

Who do you think will win the fight?
