Title: [Boxing]: Hafthor Bjornsson vs. Eddie Hall - 19.3.
Post by: TheNineClub on March 19, 2022, 06:42:40 AM
The long-awaited rescheduled bout is here. Is this really for a boxing fan? Not really, this is a freakshow and maybe an amateur boxing match. But it has gained a lot of interest and their rivalry has been heating up over the last few years. Thor has had a few tune-up fights so I'll give him the slight advantage here. I can't imagine them not gassing here.

I'll also go for Thor I saw him spar with Fury I'm sure Fury gives him advice and train him how to punch properly both fighters are super heavy indeed with a fighter this heavy they can hurt one another, the one that has a tank more or will not gas out will likely win the match there's a lot of interest on this fight I saw a lot of this on my social account.

I don't know if any of these guys can fight, as muscular people tend to tire quickly in combat sports and it's important to minimize wasted effort.
It looks like Thor has a size and range advantage so I'd say the weight is in his favour, but again there's no telling if any of these guys can fight or how they'll react, when they're stabbed in the nose or shot in the chest.
If I'm forced to bet, I take Thor Bjornsson because Eddie Hall isn't as strong as he used to be.

Today I tried to check the boxing schedule, on sports television, but did not find only one boxing schedule that I found and will take place today Thor vs Hall, today only one boxing bout there, I think not many people know they will face off in the ring today.

I also just saw today's Thor vs. Hall schedule. Hall, does this have anything to do with the meeting two days ago between Bjornsson and Hall, a little tensed when Hall said something about mom, but despite today's boxing schedule going on, I hope they both stay professional in the ring.

I won't miss the boxing between Thor vs. Hall today, I'm going to watch it, it's exciting.

That's true they are good at lifting weight but I doubt how good they are in boxing, they tend to be slow and easily tire because of the movements they are going to make by punching, ducking, or by hugging, they are good at lifting and this is a totally different arena the fight could go either way but I'll go for Thor for having seen him with Fury and training together, I hope after this fight they will become friends and end their feud.

These guys will get exhausted immediately, and they'd probably just be giving power blows every single time which will make this fight over shortly. The one with more stamina to move around the ring and trade blows is more likely to win this bout. They are both extremely powerful and their strength is their asset, but they are quite lacking in the stamina department.

For the lulz tho, I'd go for Thor Bjornsson just for raw power alone. Eddie is still massive and powerful but I think Thor takes the bout more efficiently.

Hafthor Bjornsson wins their grudge match by a unanimous decision it's only a one-point margin he shows he is a better boxer against Eddie who threw a lot of missed haymaker Hall suffered a knockdown when Hafthor Bjornsson landed a big punch before the end of the fight

here's a full recap of the fight

Hafthor Bjornsson ends Eddie Hall rivalry with points victory after brutal fight (https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/boxing/breaking-eddie-hall-hafthor-bjornsson-26510010)

it's good that both men hug each as a show of sportsmanship

As we all saw in the title, it means it is one of the most exciting fights this year since they get the approval to fight in Dubai. Both fighters are undoubtedly strong but how they execute their skills against each other is the most important part because that's all that will matter and their stamina is also crucial here, whoever losses so much air in the early rounds will likely lose the match of this battle of the giants.

That's expected for sure due to their weight but I believe that they have enough training for stronger stamina. They're still a great match here but I'll go for Thor because I've seen his training video clips and I'm impressed by his strength though I'm also expecting Eddie's massive performance. I have high expectations for this fight.

the result of the match between thor and eddie in my opinion was quite good, other friends commented enough to make me nod, again and again eddie hall fell, the struggle for the two strongest men's thrones was won by thor, who seemed to dominate and without suffering either the first round or the next round It's possible that there were several incidents before the above, perhaps there was an influence that made these 2 fighters in terms of preparation and mentality. Considering that Eddie Hall had also fallen and fell last year against Hafthor, so the match decided to be postponed and resulted in several injuries to Eddie, although now it's the same, on the temples. maybe when the title of the strongest man has been snatched by thor

You're not reading @judeafante already posted who won the fight I checked Youtube of the highlights of the fight and I can say it's not a boring fight at all both fighters have their moments, both are strong but easily tired they take time to engage and takes time to size up one another, I agree with the judges that Bjornsson deserves the win because of Hall's knock down.

I kinda thought Thor would win, just on the fact that he actually had some fights prior to this and learned from those, tweaked his technique, and approached this with far more emphasis on technique than I would have thought. And it seems to me like Hall banked on being a big puncher, but that just didn't cut it. Look, let's not beat around the bush, this level of boxing is not fun to watch, but I am impressed by some improvements shown.

Ufc finished and had a quick check in the boxing. Let down. They hype around the fight was cringe and embarassing for both fighters. Seeing Eddie hall swear and do the old 'ooh let me at him' made me cringe. But then seeing Thor do it as well, no class. Thor wan, Eddie floored twice. I hope they both leave it at that. Heaviest heavy weight fight in boxing history. Nothing special, like some other users mentioning some nice movement, god sounds like we're watching Tyson again. All hype not real warriors. Just rewatched the UFC highlights as well, god some of them are cringey as well, paddy the baddy singing feels like I'm watching a tv show.

Well, this is something that had to be said and was said, I was also surprised to see Thor's technique, this is what I call a great Wow this being can do these things, what Ability he has without a doubt! However, I expected much more from Hall, Hall bet a lot on his punch and in these cases intelligence must be combined very well with physical strength, we can never trust our best weapon, everything has to be exercising and improving If Hall had been a little more comprehensive, maybe it would have been a surprise, but Thor chose to do things more strategically and won.

Especially on Bjornsson he is more patient and not in a hurry, he is pacing himself so well he has the height and weight advantage but opted to keep the distance and wait for Eddie to throw punches and counter punch that knockdown spells the difference for the fight in the early round I knew it will come the way he throws those haymakers, Bjornsson just needs to take a good big shot to take him down, I'm glad that both fighters acknowledge each other.

I have missed this fight, I haven't seen the scheduled because of so much to do, and missed betting, but I have already watch the replay and what I witness it seems Eddie Hall was very calm and seem like he is a professional the way he is fighting Hafthor Bjornsson, I surely give Eddie Hall the 1st and 2nd round because he done a tremendously landing a big punch on Bjornsson, but that is just my opinion and what I see on the fight but when the fight progresses we can see the Advantage of Hafthor Bjornsson to Eddie hall, and that is with the reach, height, experience and power on the 4th round Gregor "The Mountain" Clegane have unleash hell on Eddie Hall when he give him that big punch that knock-out I really though that the fight will end in a KO win but it ended in an Unanimous decision win to Hafthor Bjornsson.

Well, there is no doubt to Hafthor Bjornsson Strenght and technique, but let's not forget the stands of Eddie Hall as well he's guard was down all the time, that unguarded technique, simply is not really unguarded, we can say that he want to really brawl and wants his opponent to hit him, but Hafthor Bjornsson just got the height and power to give Eddie Hall what he wanted, and that is a great fight as we see it.

Eddie Hall has not won a single fight since 2000 if the information below is correct.

The match is over already, and Thor won the match via unanimous decision.
I didn’t watch the match but as per comments here, they are both exhausted on the early round and fortunately Thor was able to hold his breathe until the last round to get the title. Heavyweights are getting much attention now because of great players, I wish to see a rematch so I can place my bet as well early.

Lol, @Vaculin must have missed this fight. OP should have posted this thread early so we could have made a long discussion before the fight, most of us here could have bet the fight and probably won as the majority are thinking Thor would win.

I just watched it on youtube. Thor evaded the big swings of Hall. It was only in the first round where Hall got success with it but in the next rounds, the jabs of Thor won. Yes, it's sort of a freakshow. You wouldn't even think it's a real boxing bout. I guess if you know Thor before this match, you'll just think of him fighting as the Champion of Westeros.

Hall certainly doesn't know how to box, nor footwork. He must be grateful that it's just 6 rounds.

with all the predictions it could be a long discussion for thor and eddie hall, but with everything that happened at eddie hall it might be the opposite. of the two fighters who will be fighting for the title. maybe april or the next month after the eddie hall and thor fight maybe Errol Spence and Yordenis Ugas or other world class fighters, let's wait for this prestigious event my brother

Yeah, that was the jab that made Thor win the fight. Eddie Hall had some power but he is short enough to reach Thor who played nice defense. if only Hall was faster, then we might have a chance of getting inside the defense of Thor and land him the solid shots. It was an entertaining fight, it's a real fight of the Giants and Hall did the right strategy to win.

You can tell the height difference, Eddie Hall looks like an old Mike Tyson whose combination is very predictable. In this fight, Thor made the right decision to just wait for the through of Hall, he got hit sometimes but not strong enough to bring him down. Thor's chance to win in that fight is only a KO, but that didn't come because he is missing most of his heavy shots.

I just watched the highlight of their fight. it was fun and entertaining. to be honest, with a decent coach I can see hafthor becoming a decent boxer if he continues his training. you can clearly see on the fight that he is using his reach and height advantage(though still sloppy) and actually throwing the left and right combo.

Well, one of the characteristics of boxers who are tall is to have more vision of how their opponent can react when they are shorter, and having long arms is clearly an advantage, the only option that Hall took that I liked is that he knew move but he was not fast enough to attack Thor's back and ribs, when a boxer is shorter he has to concentrate on the easy targets and not try to try harder to be at the level of a boxer who outclasses him. height, I think Hall lacked much more desire. I know that in contact sports, self-esteem is usually something that can be easily lowered, perhaps that explains the reason why every athlete needs a psychologist, the morale of every athlete must always be sky high to quickly find solutions when everything gets complicated.
