I don't know how many of you follow the world of Strongman or Powerlifting or any of these strength sports, but there is often a lot of BS and trash talk between fans, trolls and people trying to get that "Click bait"
The idea of a boxing match between two of the most recent Strongest Men in the World, Eddie "the Animal" Hall and Hafthor "the Mountain" Bjornson came about out of a dispute between the two over the breaking of Eddie's deadlift record since it was done at Thor's home gym and not at a competition
which brought up this bit..
All that BS brought on the idea of a boxing match between the two Giants..
So, honestly, I got a real WWF vibe from all the trash talk.. The question was, "Is this going to be legit?" or "Is this a segue into the world of Pro Wrestling?"
Therefor, I decided to bring in a couple of people that were REALLY involved in the world of Professional Boxing.
One was Ron Rasul of YardOut Fitness (@yardoutfitness on IG) or https://linktr.ee/yardoutfitness
the other was Paul "the Punisher" Kroll, former USA Olympian and Professional Welterweight Boxer (@paulkrollboxing on IG)
SO, the next step was to get them to view some of the training video from Eddie Hall and Hafthor "The Mountain" Bjornsson (see above)
We were able to come up with a number of really valid points as to what country this would happen in (drug testing?) time of rounds and weight of gloves, etc.
Basically, it was great to have two Pro's sitting in and giving their opinions as to what they thought should happen.
I am a big believer in getting information out to the fans and this was one fo those times that we didn't need to hear from another "armchair general"
Check out the video on D tube and let me know what you think
