Is this a Wrestling match? Sorry, I don't follow wrestling a lot but I could bet on this fight if the odds are available.

As the fight is scheduled September 18, 2021, I was expecting that I can find betting odds for this fight, but I tried to search in the sportsbook I'm using, I could not find available odds for this fight.

it says boxing right up there. fight night does sound like MMA actually. hafthor is a well known guy of game of throne series, he is kind of a giant.

this bout will be this sept 18. its not a fight thats overly hyped by media. probably short notice but they do have few undercard. maybe it will be added later on sportsbet soon.

This is probably a boxing match, I mean isn't that what Bjornsson was going to fight Hall with so I am pretty sure that this is a boxing match too. Wrestling is monopolized by WWE so we will know if it's a wrestling match.

The two are not well known fighters but are obviously known for their brute strength. It'll be hard to gauge who will come out as a victor considering that both of them are underexperienced on such fights scenarios. Nevertheless, it will be an interesting bout. Two strongmen displaying their wits and strength in a fight is something spectacular to watch.

If I was to bet on anything, I'd probably go on Devon Larratt here. The man's a former member of the Canadian Armed Forces, and surely knows how to handle his own in fights and brawls.

I think it should appear on most of the sport book sites. I tried to find the odds for this match but unfortunately could not find any.
Why no betting site is covering this match. This is strange

This match was initially scheduled to take place in Florida, but as usual due to covid cases there, the venue is shifted to Dubai.

That's the only reason i could see as sport betting sites are not sure if the match will even take place or not. However, this is just my assumption.

Same here, tried to search it also on some fiat bookies but seems that nobody is offering this match right now. If I could place a bet, it would be on Bjornsson, Larratt stepped in because Hall got injured but only had a couple of weeks training.

Big games must be listed on the sportsbook site. Why are there so many betting sites that no one includes them?
if it has been published shortly, and there is an announcement from the organizer regarding the rules and participants' readiness.
I'm sure many betting sites will miss this big game.

I read the Björnsson and Eddie Hall fight has been postponed until early next year. I believe Eddie Hall is in serious trouble and it will take him a long time to recover from his injuries.

I don't think the fight will be fun to watch, because the two fighters have absolutely no foundation in boxing, as we all know that Björnsson is an athlete who participates in strongman competitions and so far he has never participated in combat sports whatever, so is Devon Larratt who is a wrestler and to be honest maybe the boxing match will just be a joke in the ring in my opinion .

That's why this is just going to be an exhibition match. Although the two has competed in other sports discipline, but the the trend now is now looks like a cross-over boxing. We are like back in the early 2000's wherein there's a lot of this so called celebrities boxing match. So yes, this is a joke fight only to show their fans how "strong" they are and obviously go for the money.

That's you, for me, it's going to be a good time because we will be seeing these brutes duke it out in the ring without any fundamentals in boxing which is a good thing, it's like watching a train crash, you know it's bad and depressing but you still want to watch.

That reaction made me laugh though.
I believe bookies will list this match at the last minute, what I mean is maybe few hours before the fight.
But for us here, I think, we will just watch this fight and their undercards for entertainment purposes.
Don't think a lot of us here will bet on these fighters. Even sportsbooks are not yet picking up these fights.

Ah, you know what, I get what you are saying, but I have to give it to Thor, he has been working on his fundamentals. Now, the problem is that he has not had enough experience for those fundamentals to really be solid in an actual fight. But you are not wrong.

Right? I am not sure why they would use that type of title, it just confuses the fans. Bad decision IMHO.

[YOSHIE]

I will definitely watch Hafthor Bjornsson boxing against Devon Larratt, in the ring tomorrow, it will be interesting, one is the strongest Athlete and the other is the Arm Wrestler, what the crowd will say, ha, ha, this is fun.

As far as I know in the boxing arena both must have speed in swinging their hands in addition to hard punches, I'm sure Hafthor and Devon have hand strength that is not in doubt, both have arms as hard as steel, the problem in boxing this time is speed and hand movement, I'm sure they will be slow and stiff when throwing punches, because their arm muscles are too tight for boxing show, maybe for arm wrestling suits both of them, but let's see when the match comes, it's fun.

[Natalim]

Two giants fighting, I love to see if they will last the full round, or probably we will again see a first-round KO in this match.

I was looking for the betting odds since this fight will soon happen, but until now I could not fight any betting odds, even on a google search, no article gives an idea about the betting odds of the fight.

Is this fight not put for betting?

[mu_enrico]

Seriously boxing? AFAIK, Hafthor was a strongman champ and Devon was an arm-wrestling champ.
Okay, let's assume the news is legit, Hafthor has highest chance of beating Devon.
Devon's strength was built for arm-wrestling and only for it, thus he can't punch since it will use different muscle. The weight difference will also take into consideration since Devon isn't muscular. He's basically an ordinary person with abnormal arm-wrestling strength.

[yazher]

We will see this fight tomorrow and it seems an interesting one. I hope they don't get tired in the earlier rounds when they throw multiple punches at the early stage of the fight. I am just confused when the OP said this is not an exhibition match. I think it is since both are not professional boxers and also this is their first time fighting inside the boxing ring. their experience will not bring them close to victory if they get tired so fast.

[Welsh]

I would have watched the Hafthor vs Hall fight, but I'm not interested in this bout. Hafthor last fight didn't gain much traction, and I'm assuming that this one won't either. The reason the Hall fight was followed as much as it was is because they both have a history, there's rivalry in it, and they aren't the typical fighter build, they are both huge. This fight has none of that, and I'd either expect Hafthor to win through sheer pressure, but not look that good winning or the smaller fighter circling, and picking his shots, and winning the fight through pure agility, and fitness.

Though, I wouldn't entertain the idea of betting on the fight. There's too many factors, and there isn't enough footage on either of them.

I am as well, so I made a research and I find out that the fight is an exhibition match.
The original fight was Hafthor Bjornsson vs Eddie Hall and Hall was replace by Devon Larratt.

This is the content of the article.

The Game of Thrones actor and strongman Hafthor ‘The Mountain’ Bjornsson was set to face British strongman Eddie Hall in an exhibition boxing match that was scheduled to take place on Saturday, September 18, but with the Brit unfortunately suffering a detached bicep, the fight is set to be rescheduled for around March 2022.
