That kid laughing was the best tho. His dad was behaving badly, but the laughter tells us that he’s not like that at home. The kid is pretty great but I was happy to see his dad get rocked nonetheless 😂
They talk about Diaz landing combos at will for the first half, but what I saw was that not a single one of those combos came for free. Every time he hit a couple, he'd catch something nasty on his way back out.
You can't judge the kid by his dad. My dad had an abusive alcoholic as a father and while it took him a while to work through that anger he ended up being a much better man than his father. Eddie's boy is young and doesn't know better yet. Give him a chance to grow up and get some experience and see if he is still like that. All he knows of Thor is what his dad has told him. Ignorance makes fools of us all.
It's way harder than it looks. A lot of guys seem to think they can just naturally do it, with zero training, just because they've seen it and they keep fit. Everyone should try it, at least once.
I wasn't a fan of Thor at the strongman due to his attitude, then the script flipped. Thor trained hard took it seriously, lost the weight had a training match, Eddie did started to get cocky bad attitude and not taking things seriously whilst pumping out stupid videos. Even as an Englishman Eddie got what he deserved.
@@jasmith85absolutely. I was rooting for Eddie to win WSM, until he actually won, then he believed his own hype and became a massive fame whore, and acted like a complete and utter wank biscuit during the build up to the fight with Thor. Can't stand the prick now.
Back in the day they couldn't because the damn refs wouldn't call a fight if the other guy was still standing. That's why you see the real Rocky throwing some punches when the guy seems down. Got to put them down or else you lose the fight, why a lot of those old time boxers spent the rest of their lives punch drunk.
Modern boxing press conferences are usually bad and fake enough but the one with Thor and Eddie took the cake. Two of the literal (yes, thats how you use the word) most powerful men on earth, and they were so mad and angry, yet a few average sized men held them both back with ease. That was embarrassing. If Thor actually wanted to get to Eddie and vice versa, those guys in the middle wouldve been thrown away like fucking bagels.
It shows that you don't know shit about fighting. Also thanks for letting us know how to use "literally", you get a cookie for being somewhat smart and making sure others know.
The second one was a big guy, but his opponent towered over him! Without rules he would've gotten knocked out for sure! Without gloves having more reach is a serious advantage! And Emileanenko embarrased Koklyaev in the interview already imo, his throw of the cap did nothing and when Emileanenko threw it back it wounded his chin 😅
I never understood why people go out of your way to piss off someone who beats the shit out of people for a living. They’re already coming at you with everything they have, why go and make it personal?
Some people like watching the drama, but people who watch for the actual sport usually think it's dumb. If morons need the drama to enjoy a fight, they should just watch pro wrestling
In Puerto Rico when I was younger i had to box the best boxer from the next town over in the 3rd round I got'em with a 2 piece w/o a soda, when the referee started counting he told the referee to stop counting and just give him 5mins because he was dizzy. 😂
How does the saying go: There’s always a bigger fish in the sea ? Eddie is by no means small, but Björnsson is just massive lol. Both are ass in boxing (obviously not their profession) but Björnsson height/reach & weight advantage put Eddie to sleep
I find weird on how on backyard fights like street beefs you see many fighters respecting each other a lot, and in professional fights there is a lot of trash talking.
18:10 That sucks. The guy in the black knocked the guy in the green clean out/down, but ends up losing by ref stoppage even though the guy in the green didn't even knock him down.
For those wondering, yes hafthor won but eddie was recovering from a detached bicep. Hence, the awkward posture from him. He only tore it 2 or 3 weeks before the fight. I know it was a few weeks before. Say what you want about him, but to go against someone bigger than him while not even 30%-40% recovered from an injury is crazy brave 😂
I used to be a Haney fan until I found out he cheats weight. Last 3-4 fights he came in the ring at an illegal weight and complained that Ryan Garcia was 3lbs over at weight ins.
at the 13:00 mark the ref must have really hated the guy , he should have called it the first time he went down but the ref was just wanting him to continue to get hurt some more.
If the guy threw his hat at me I would have kept it and said thanks for the gift. The problem with these press conferences is they don't seem to know how to truly get under someone's skin with anything other than insults and threats. I think this all stems from Ali. Which is going to be more aggravating some you calling your opponent weak and him getting up and telling you to fight him now or going, yeah that's true. You got any tips on how to kick your ass? You are so big and strong and I'm so small I just hope I survive etc, etc. Now you can say these things with a sarcastic tone or not depending on how much you want to truly piss them off.
Imagine getting your support hose in a twist over a kilogram. 2.2 pounds and the fight is on? lol he's not cocky, he's immature. He doesn't need a sparring partner, he needs a nanny.
Eddie Hall is very competitive and doesn't like to lose, neither does thor. Thor was kind of a dick during wsm and Eddie had a grudge because of it, but they used to be friends apparently. You should never disrespect your opponents family though, Eddie is better than that
Eddie Hall talks too damn much for a guy who won a single Strongman competition. I don't dislike the man but I do dislike his constant chatter. Dude you are a beast of a man you shouldn't have to talk trash. I'm a firm believer that the truly strong, great, etc don't talk trash because their deeds speak for themselves. Eddie was there being the first man to ever clear 500kgs and then instead of allowing that to talk for him he kept on talking. Records are meant to be broken and if it pisses you off that someone broke your record then you are a child or you should make damn sure your record can't be broken. Look at Jerry Rice his records are going to stand for YEARS because he put in the work and kept playing and pushed the records to heights that others aren't willing to go. I like Eddie and I like Thor although both have done things that they shouldn't have, as have I. With that being said I'm glad that Thor won the fight because Eddie would have never shut up about it if he had won and that would have gotten annoying as hell after a while.
all acting to get moe Hype and attract watchers! they still get money win or lose! Contact sports like Boxing and MMA should be winner takes all, then i will believe all that trash talking and arrogance! 😏
He's an incredible athlete and he's normally got a good attitude. Him and Thor had bad blood from WSM where I guess thor was kind of a douche. Insulting your opponents family with your son present is pretty gross though
Wonder if Hall’s giggling son enjoyed the fight as much as he loved the press conference. 😢
I was looking for this comment.😂
I enjoy Eddie’s giggling Son made me giigle 😎
I’m a power lifter
That kid laughing was the best tho.
His dad was behaving badly, but the laughter tells us that he’s not like that at home.
The kid is pretty great but I was happy to see his dad get rocked nonetheless 😂
Marquez pulls back his left jab when he realises Diaz is seeing stars from the right hand Smackeroo. Respect!
They talk about Diaz landing combos at will for the first half, but what I saw was that not a single one of those combos came for free. Every time he hit a couple, he'd catch something nasty on his way back out.
Bro was like “woah he’s had enough”
Galovkin is definitely calm when under fire, made fool pay for dirty punching.
Those two big giant guys look at his kids enjoying every second of it banging on the table and laughing 😂😂😂😂
I think it is more of a testament for childish these fighters are...
"Macklin's not a slick guy he's there to be hit" damn think the announcer got in the best punch of the night with that one.
My fav is the last one. Even through he ran his mouth, at the end he showed respect even after a loss! A++++
The embarrassing part was him getting cut by a hat the match was just the icing on the cake😂😂
That was my favourite part, way he dabs sheepishly at his head afterwards 😂
In the Hall/Madden "debate" I was waiting for an "I know you are, but what am I? 😂🤣😂
These young cats keep sleeping on the old ways, lifelong honed skills, and toughness of the greats.
Eddie Hall's little lackey standing there like he's really something.. Like Half-Thor wouldn't have ran right through his ass.😂
You can't judge the kid by his dad. My dad had an abusive alcoholic as a father and while it took him a while to work through that anger he ended up being a much better man than his father. Eddie's boy is young and doesn't know better yet. Give him a chance to grow up and get some experience and see if he is still like that. All he knows of Thor is what his dad has told him.

Tbf, regardless of the result, the Thor vs Eddie going the distance is quite impressive for two mountains. That's good cardio.
I did boxing 43 years ago and I was crap at it. Only did it because of the Rocky films. Aaaaaaaaadrianne
..., i thought I knew you...
It's way harder than it looks. A lot of guys seem to think they can just naturally do it, with zero training, just because they've seen it and they keep fit. Everyone should try it, at least once.
Prime GGG was a different breed.
True. Few like him and Pac Man.
Wesby's stance is the most hilarious thing ever. What a joke.
Thor Björnsson - what an phenomenal Name.
I wasn't a fan of Thor at the strongman due to his attitude, then the script flipped. Thor trained hard took it seriously, lost the weight had a training match, Eddie did started to get cocky bad attitude and not taking things seriously whilst pumping out stupid videos.

DAMN that punch got him doing the QW OP flashgame
I do respect a boxer when they hold back that punch on a downed opponent.
Its the fkin rules you dope.

I don’t know why the use of ‘bagels’ in that sentence kills me, but it does. 😆
Good point, as well.
@@adlockhungry304 was the first word that came to mind.....and rag doll is overused haha.
We've got BAGELS! WOOO!
It was pathetic. Promotors will sell their mothers for cash. These two are not boxers.
“Have they told you, who I am?”
“Some dead man”
5:24 Ooo looks like he might've shat himself a little bit there! 😂
Eddie...don't bring your kid to the pre-fight. And especially don't be the first to stand up for chest-beating.
I love Eddie, but that was pretty rough
The 3rd guy literally looked like a Mike Tyson’s punch out villain… hahaha!!!
Marquez was never anyone's patsy
GGG leaned into it and delivered a textbook liver shot. Haney fought like he trains/spars with lefties.
Ref? Great job mate protecting the fighers!❤
Boxing is a truly odd sport.. two people, beating the crap out of each other, until one concedes.
That guy called those scumbags gentlemen. Funny.
The second one was a big guy, but his opponent towered over him! Without rules he would've gotten knocked out for sure! Without gloves having more reach is a serious advantage!
And Emileanenko embarrased Koklyaev in the interview already imo, his throw of the cap did nothing and when Emileanenko threw it back it wounded his chin 😅
The Russian doing the dance of the glass pins….😂
Eddie Hall. 38 inch biceps. 38 inch reach 😂
As if anyone at that press conference would be able to stop Eddie Hall or Hafþor Björnsson...
In the early 60s I fought Semi-Pro. I never trash talked anyone, and would have never even considered to do that!
I never understood why people go out of your way to piss off someone who beats the shit out of people for a living. They’re already coming at you with everything they have, why go and make it personal?

Klokayev was a great and dignified lifter. It was sad to see him take part in this.
In Puerto Rico when I was younger i had to box the best boxer from the next town over in the 3rd round I got'em with a 2 piece w/o a soda, when the referee started counting he told the referee to stop counting and just give him 5mins because he was dizzy. 😂
Eddie thor boxed 🥊 damn thought he was a weight lifter 🏋 should of stuck to it 😂😂
Lol imagine thinking you can intimidate Alexander Emilianenko
Lol he was bleeding from the cap throw. Imagine what’s going to happen when you get punch.
Emilianenko is one of the baddest MFs
Eddie Hall must be gutted , devoting your life to being a scary monster , but still ends up being beaten up by someone bigger .
How does the saying go: There’s always a bigger fish in the sea ?
Eddie is by no means small, but Björnsson is just massive lol. Both are ass in boxing (obviously not their profession) but Björnsson height/reach & weight advantage put Eddie to sleep
Big up eddie❤🎉
2:40 I wasn't looking at the screen during this spat........did NOT expect these gents to look like this
The poor guy in the grey suit jacket😂😂😂
Yes, because taunting a dude that big named Thor will end well.
I find weird on how on backyard fights like street beefs you see many fighters respecting each other a lot, and in professional fights there is a lot of trash talking.
"when cocky fighters dont get what they deserve and everything in the world is wrong: ryan garcia edition"
About the weightlifting belt having big muscles, there’s any equate to fighting skills
For being one of the literal largest men in history, Eddie Hall has some serious small man energy.
7:27 was he wearing Jordan’s?
18:10 That sucks. The guy in the black knocked the guy in the green clean out/down, but ends up losing by ref stoppage even though the guy in the green didn't even knock him down.

Big old muscle bound guys with glass chins...always makes me laugh! Boxing is not about who has the biggest muscles.
There is a reason he's named Half-Thor
If you can't walk the walk, don't talk the talk
WTF? Is that a Mini Dmitry Bivol in 14:56? XD
The power lifter is not a great role model for his son. "I've been around the world and found that only stupid people are breeding"! 😭
2:31 who is the huge guy in the white suite black tie
Diaz got schooled and knocked out 😂
I used to be a Haney fan until I found out he cheats weight. Last 3-4 fights he came in the ring at an illegal weight and complained that Ryan Garcia was 3lbs over at weight ins.
Every was good but not the mosquitos!😊
Marquez is really my Favorite Mexican boxer
Why does wesby look like don flamingo in punch out 😅
Funny how huge guys have the soft voices like listening to nagano and Anthony Joshua but at a moments notice could just snatch your head off LOL
at the 13:00 mark the ref must have really hated the guy , he should have called it the first time he went down but the ref was just wanting him to continue to get hurt some more.
Still a shame with the Thor and Eddie fight. Eddie had torn his bicep prior so his left hand was useless
Quincy Wesby was using the Filly Shell…
Oh shit, I'm late for work!
thanks for narrating before the ko! buzzkill!
Relax. Most of these fights have been around for years now. If you didn't want to get spoiled, you should've watched a version that had no commentary.
If the guy threw his hat at me I would have kept it and said thanks for the gift. The problem with these press conferences is they don't seem to know how to truly get under someone's skin with anything other than insults and threats. I think this all stems from Ali. Which is going to be more aggravating some you calling your opponent weak and him getting up and telling you to fight him now or going, yeah that's true. You got any tips on how to kick your ass? You are so big and strong and I'm so small I just hope I survive etc, etc. Now you can say these things with a sarcastic tone or not depending on how much you want to truly piss them off.
Why do people have to act like this it almost never works out.
What an absolute 🛎 end Eddie Hall is
I used to like Hall,but talking like that in front of his kid done it for me. He's disgusting
I enjoy Eddie’s giggling Son made me giigle, I’ve been an Ebbie Hall fan for many years
I was with Madden on this one
Most of these aren't even cocky.
golovkin gibi boksör dünyaya milyonda 1 gelir ,demedi demeyin. bir kere karekteri yeter...
I don't know when this pre-fight crap started. All of this "I'm more of a man than you" BS. Professional wrestling at it's best.
Actually it’s been around since the 60’s. Drama and trash talk sells boxing and MMA .
Imagine getting your support hose in a twist over a kilogram. 2.2 pounds and the fight is on? lol he's not cocky, he's immature. He doesn't need a sparring partner, he needs a nanny.
Eddie Hall is a clown, what an embarrassment
Eddie Hall is very competitive and doesn't like to lose, neither does thor. Thor was kind of a dick during wsm and Eddie had a grudge because of it, but they used to be friends apparently. You should never disrespect your opponents family though, Eddie is better than that
Björnsson/Hall Titan fight the 100 lb referee stayed way aways. Poor guy was in over his head.
Wesby looks like Denzel from Wish.
6:45...it seems the Tattoo feather has no idea how to Box. Even in amateur fights i saw .more talent😂😂
I don’t see how Greg Jackson was supposed to be the hero there? I think they missed that one. I felt bad for Whitlock.
Why would you pick a fight with the Mountain?
Wemby keeps fighting like that he will have more losses than teeth.
Wonder how Halls baby boy will turn out?
most bodybuilder can't even box / street fight
In the US fight would've been called on the 1st knock down
Eddie Hall talks too damn much for a guy who won a single Strongman competition. I don't dislike the man but I do dislike his constant chatter.

Love hearing that ... Papi yo soy de PR
Who's the wanna be tough Guy in the background?
Ironically Eddie Hall is actually a hell of a nice guy, Bjorn is the ass hole in real life and started their beef.
is this about boxing or something else?
😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😊😊😊😊😮😂😂
🎭👻🤣🤣😜🤫😛🤭
吠える奴は弱い、世界共通だ。
all acting to get moe Hype and attract watchers!
they still get money win or lose!
Contact sports like Boxing and MMA should be winner takes all, then i will believe all that trash talking and arrogance! 😏
Worst Parents Award goes to Hall. You can tell his son is spoiled , never taught any good values of life
He definitely seems spoiled, but he's 11 and can deadlift almost 300lbs. The kid is going to be a monster in a few years
Getting that strong takes discipline. More than most children have
Why is this still a thing?
Ja ha
WTF was cap guy a real boxer? That was pathetic.
Eddie hall is just embarrasing. "Beast" lol. It should read manchild.
He's an incredible athlete and he's normally got a good attitude. Him and Thor had bad blood from WSM where I guess thor was kind of a douche. Insulting your opponents family with your son present is pretty gross though
Did i hear a Jake Paul comment....gtfo.
Rucking Boring
