The bout is finally here! Thor and Eddie have made it to the bout healthily this time and should be making their way to the ring around 4:30pm est tomorrow.

Both men slimmed down substantially, with Eddie weighing in at 313 pounds and Thor at 335. There were already two near brawls over the past few days and they have done a great job marketing this fight and selling wolf tickets.

So who you got, Sherbros? Eddie out brawls him or Thor out boxes him?

I downloaded the Segi TV app and it has an advertisement for the fight plastered across the front, but no link to click.

What does this have to do with people dropping dueces in star wars?
 
At 1st I was rooting for Hall. For a guy like him to win strongman was pretty incredible.
However, he acts like a total twat. Why is Thor being a sore loser such a big deal to him?
They both seem like crybabies to be honest.
Thor looks to have the way better technique and actual boxing form. Hall just seems to load up and throw wide hay makers super low on the bag. Does he realize he's fighting a giant....
Interesting freak show fight.
After seeing them both spar Thor looks way better to me.

It's a hella interesting fight as both are super humans and have strength on a level we have never seen in boxingg, but they both are beginners and wont have great defense. Literally anything can happen.

Thor's transformation and dedication is stunning. He dropped hundreds of pounds and did it the right way, got the best team, had exhibition matches against pros and is really taking the technical part of it seriously.

Eddie also dropped a ton of weight and is a freak human being (check out him swimming). He is like Tank Abbott on steroids and is very athletic for his size and obviously hits like a truck. He had a boxing match about a decade ago but clearly Thor has the better technical skills, but Eddie's sheer will, determination and doggedness makes it very interesting. I can totally see Eddie catching and sleeping Thor, or I can see Thor picking him apart behind a jab and Eddie gassing.

As far as freak fights go, this is the pinnacle - it doesn't get any better. Unlike McG vs Mayweather, this actually is competitive and we have no ideas what will happen. Both pack insane power, took this seriously but are glass cannons in a way and have no defense. It does seem that when a boxer and brawler meet, the better boxer generally wins ----- it does not always happen that way, but I think Thor's massive reach advantage and his experience will see him be more effective with his energy, despite getting caught a few times. Get yo popcorn, this gunna be lit!

Me? Hell naw, they aint even charging for the fight. <Lmaoo> I think it is an awesome freak fight tho - both guys are next level athletes who have unreal power, taken this seriously, dropped 100's of pounds, have bad blood but are both very hittable. It's like the quintessential bar room brawl with the two strongest men in the world. This fight was supposed to happen a few times before but fell apart, and now it is finally happening. Fook the Paul bros, youtube boxing and MayMac: this is how you do a freak fight.

Both dudes have a lifetime of strength training and muscle memory for that. They also are giant human beings that don't move anything like decent boxers.
Cardio is huge in boxing and in being able to absorb punishment.
For as hard as they may be able to hit a bag their punching power and accuracy probably is nowhere near what of a pro heavyweight UFC fighter let alone a boxer.
I honestly think it will look like a tough man contest. Nothing more.
I dont expect either of them to have boxing cardio. Probably will be more push downs & slips than knockdowns.
I will say Thor looked pretty composed vs Devon while Devon was flailing and had no idea what he was doing. Thor did stick to straight boxing and busted him up good. However, Devin was 50 out of shape & had 0 boxing experience. Eddie coming at him will be a lot different.

Hmm normally I'd agree with that but these two were literally the strongest men in the world at one point. They're also above 300 pounds each.

That being said I fully expect them to gas in under a minute, and Eddie will be throwing ridiculous haymakers from the jump with zero technique. His training videos have been an absolute joke, no form at all. Meanwhile Thor actually looks like a halfway competent boxer, at least during training.
