    Seen a video of that mountain sparring years ago. He got battered off a chubby amateur heavyweight who wasn't great himself. No interest.

    I wonder if there will be drug testing?

    I think that would probably end it for Thor, given he would presumably still be wanting to compete in Strongman (though I’m sure he claims to be natural :lol:).

    These guys are so big, Terry Holland has a gym right by me and Terry is the same height as AJ at 6’6’ .... but literally twice as wide. He blows out his arse walking up a flight of stairs but he looks imposing ;)

    He's already admitted using in the past and is still competing.

    If these two do box, the speed of their punches will make Joe Joyce look like prime 89 Tyson

    The drug testing in strong man is a total joke. Show me a successful natural strong man and I’ll show you a liar.

    There both not great , Halls best chance would actually lose a **** load of weight and box his head off, with both there sizes and movement as they are now , surely Thor is just gonna be to big for Hall:

    just another money making event powered by social media, I can see this making then both a load of cash. I will probably watch it to be fair even though it will be shockingly bad!

    Hall doesn't compete in strongman anymore and this "fight" is 18 months away, he can just focus on that

    Thor still competes in strongman

    Should be an easy win for hall under the circumstances
