It’s Official! Eddie Hall Versus Hafthor Bjornsson Is Set For September 2021!

Eddie Hall and Hafthor Bjornsson are ready to go toe to toe.

The Hafthor Bjornsson-Eddie Hall beef has ramped up to a whole new level. While the two strongman competitors have spoke of facing each other in a boxing match, it’s been all all talk. That is until now.

Both Eddie Hall and Hafthor Bjornsson took to social media to officially announce their upcoming boxing match.

The boxing match has been set for September 2021 in Las Vegas, Nevada. That gives the two strongmen plenty of time to brush up on their pugilistic skills.

While the two men have had bad blood in the past, it appears they’re ready to settle things the old fashioned way. No more talk. No more videos on social media. Eddie Hall and Hafthor Bjornsson are officially prepared to go toe to toe.

Hafthor Bjornsson just recently set a world record with a 501kg deadlift. That however hasn’t stopped him from putting in some boxing training.
