    How can he realistically come clean off the sos? Do you know what happens to men who have been on high dosages for well over a decade and come right off?

    Also, his brand depends upon being big and heavy.

    It’s a guy called Lyndon (possibly Lindon) Newbon. Never heard of him!

    I have. But he's still carrying unnecessary mass. Thor looks like someone who's done an old school boxing routine.

    I cant believe this,

    Thor Bjornsonn is…. and im not pulling your legs here…. an UNDERDOG at the bookies.

    Eddie hall is morbidly obese and one punch away from a heart attack.

    No brainer

    I’m no fan of Hall (far from it) but the dude had a six pack at the weigh-in.

    Yes. Believe it or not, Terminator, he was surprisingly lean. I don't keep up with Eddie Hall, and for a long time he was airbrushing visible abs into his photos following his retirement from competitive strongman, but he was sporting a good set of "flabs". 22 stone and flabs is not a bad effort. His midsection will be as strong as anything from all of that heavy lifting. Strongmen, when they lean down, always look freaky. Bjornsson doesn't really look that impressive (relatively speaking). Savickas when he leaned down looked crazy.

    It will be a good laugh this contest.

    2.67 - whacked 50 on… Probably better odds available too, I use skybet for ease.

    Hall belittling Billy Nelson and claiming to know more boxers, while amusing, displays how ignorant he is…

    Billy does grind my gears as he can come across as arrogant himself at times but that was just next level to disrespect a renowned trainer like that.

    Thor looks infinitely better in a boxing ring but I've got this feeling that Eddie is going to go crazed wild man on him and blast him early.

    This is on the same day, same location as the Edwards fight but not part of the same card I’ve just noticed.

    Nah, Hall has lost shedtons of weight and does a huge amount of cardio for this fight. He's deceptive because he looks like a dwarf beside Thor but he's actually a freakily shredded 6'3

    This fight doesn't last four minutes IMO, no idea who wins tbh, could care less also
