Obviously, I'll go with Thor here.

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

I have not followed these boxers, but I like to see heavyweights now because of the Fury and Wilder rivalry.

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.

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

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.

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.
