@@rockroll2787 Strongest man on Earth? He is a great athlete but Brian has been beating him for years! He was always a bridesmaid never a bride until 2018. He is a great athlete but he is not the strongest on Earth stop that
@@Zach-mr3or Hafthor at his strongest is stronger than Brian has ever been. That's what matters. At his peak, Hafthor is all around the strongest man that's ever lived.
@@Zach-mr3or First of all he the "two OF the" not "the two strongest", also thor at his peak, was probably the strongest man ever, even if Brian Shaw was more successfull as a strongman
Thor is a cheater, he always fixes matches where he'd win easily, wish Gogea Mitu, John Rankin (both heavy weight pros at over 7'2") and Nikolai Valuev (6'10" heavyweight champion) were in their prime today, they would've busted Half-thor Bjoehsjiwseudhcyhdsens face apart.
i met thor when he was in Scotland, most laid back guy I've met, very kind and took time out of his busy day to talk to me ask me about myself and take a few photos with me.
Yeah i didn't really like him because i do believe what he did to Eddie at WSM was unfair. But everything i've seen of him since then has been positive.
Boxing is a science… not only brute hitting technique is the base… overconfidence blind him… he had learned a lot… technique in boxing 🥊 difference between them Thor learn boxing from 0… no ego… basics… hard work… Eddie was blind with his ego and no proper technique 🤷🏻♂️
@MSKSITO i dont think it was ego in the classical sense. I assume you mean it like how he was in the ring. His ego was more in the fact that he had much more street fighting experience (which we both know a fight outside a pub and a fight in a boxing ring are entirely different) than Thor. Massive respect to both, though. Glad things got to be worked out so they arent actively hating each other.
Not gunna lie, I was rooting for Eddie. That being said, the way you've handled yourself has definitely made me a fan. Thanks for the entertaining us. You're an amazing athlete
@@HANGRYJIMLODLIFEALWAYSLOD Yeah, same here. I don't know how many people Thor or Eddie can fight, it's actually pretty amazing that they both survived the 6 rounds. I don't know how many people in the world are strong enough.
Thor, the way you conducted yourself before, during and after the fight is an inspiration & a demonstration of the values of a true gentleman & Warrior, full respect & blessings to you & all your family 💯
@@AnythingGasoline look where his son was when he threw the can. He’s already been dragged away by his mum and whoever else it was when Eddie started squaring up to him (whilst next to his kid) maybe you should have another watch and tell me how the drink could have hit his son…
Thor did clearly show us how he is mentally strong not to make Eddie’s vulgarity and fragile masculinity lives rent free in his mind…From one side Thor made a point how to keep his cool as much as possible not to fell for the cheap bate…he was well prepared like a professional true noble warrior …confidence and professionalism is the key
Amazing to see such professionalism and high human capabilities. It's been enough of trash talk and stupid things for the sake of biz show. We need more of this, real people, real manners. Respect.
Maybe the feud between you and Eddie is a blessing in disguise, being 400ibs is not healthy, you lost the weight for this fight and you look so much healthier , so does Eddie. Respect too both of you.
@@d3kadE905 hopefully they don’t. Pushing that weight. Pushing the drugs. Pushing the food. They have kids and wives. No need to cause more damage to their bodies after they have both achieved the highest achievement (WSM)
@@d3kadE905 Pretty sure Eddie is retired fully from strongman, especially where his bicep has torn twice in the last few years. I'm sure Thor is thinking on the same wavelength.
whether u like him or not, u got to appreciate how thus man evolved over the years his achievements, strongman, movies, learning English, collaborations, boxing etc. he's on fire. props to you and we'll deserved
I feel it's a pretty weak response honestly. He just repeated a little about what Eddie said and then went on to discuss his future plans. Pretty demanding with the tattoo thing too. There's such a thing as winning gracefully
From someone who is a big Eddie fan, I wana congratulate you thor on your win and the way you've handled yourself these last few weeks, shows what great spirit and deep down honesty as a decent respectable person you are! Guð veri með þér. x
I'm glad to see you two are putting the past behind you. I'll be honest, I wasn't on your side Thor. But Ive always respected you as an athlete and what you've achieved. Looking forward to seeing what you do in the future
I was rooting for Eddie, but i have to say the better boxer did win and you did it amazingly. Very nice to see the humbleness now after the fight and im gonna subscribe to you. Cant wait to see who you will beat next!
It's so great to see both Eddie and Thor finally being able to talk to each other like normal people again, with alot of respect and not just a bunch of trash talk.
I love seeing how far you've come. I remember you not really wanting to be talking on camera, almost being a bit awkward. Now you're a whole social media personality! *Congrats on the huge win, you deserve it.*
Being brutally honest, while always being a fan of Eddie, and still being, I only ever looked at HIS side of things on the differences between you guys. However over these last few months? I really have seen how Thor has evolved into a more humble and disciplined athlete, and I have grown to become a big fan of him and his work and career too now, cheers. 🍻
Exactly all of Eddie fangirls are delusional and only root for him because they like him more, they don't look at both sides and see who is training harder or improving on technique. I knew from the very beginning that Thor was clearly more focused and dedicated because he lost the weight, has had boxing matches, and continuously worked on his technique while Eddie stayed fat and only threw haymakers 🤣 imagine being so obsessed with Eddie and still thinking he's going to win even after he showed no improvement in every one of his training vids. It's clear they are delusional and know nothing about boxing 🤣
@@marcom248 No one mentioned who they thought was going to win, the OP was talking about perspectives on ethics behind the confrontation. You're the 'fan-girl' trying to create beef in a comment section that has nothing to do with it. Itself in a video that has nothing to do with it. Good-job, clown.
@@marcom248 did you just completely fan-girl over thor then insult fans of eddie? I stg with this rivalry no one is just in between they're both amazing athletes who deserve massive respect you gotta chill ye a lot of fans of eddie only watch his side but you're proving that the same is true of fans of thor and you clearly don't understand how weight works did you honestly say eddie stayed fat? He weighed 7kg more than thor and still lost a massive amount of weight which is massively impressive even if thor did lose more just stop talking if you don't know what you're talking about
@@LouieWrites when did I fangirl over Thor? I looked at both athletes and reviewed training/sparring footage from them, it was clear who was going to win. Eddie lacked discipline and had yes men in his corner to massage his ego and look what that did to him in the end. Eddie didn't even take the time to learn the fundamentals of boxing yet you still believed in him because you fangirls have just as big of an ego and refuse to believe Thor could be training harder than him
Honestly,Thor, you improved so much,I don't see the benefit for a rematch with Eddie immediately and fighting some other fights for a couple of years makes complete sense, chase the money, don't care who the opponents are. God bless, best of luck, but as well as you prepare,you make your own luck! Fantastic work.
@@basti__ They both have to donate 200K though, the winner just gets to choose which charitys. That's nice of them though, if it was my fight I'm not donating anything unless I was getting paid millions and millions lol
At the end of the day, you're both humans, both men and both have families to care for. You both acknowledge that, and showed real class. Bravo to both of you.
This is exactly what I hoped would happend. I had your back the entire time man, but I still respected you both and hoped that you would "Bury the hatchet". Great response
Well said Thor, being a Brit I was always going to be Team Eddie, but you frankly out boxed him on the night, I’m so glad you two are able to be gracious about each other as you both know what it took to train and get in that ring. 👍🏻
I don’t like Eddie anymore, he’s a disgrace to our country with all the antics he got up to. Wiping his arse on the seat, that’s the sort of thing I’d have done in primary school.
@@JR28. Yeah, totally tasteless and lacking in class but I loved his reaction 'post fight', spoken like a man, truthfully and from the heart. Pax dude.
Big respect! I think a lot of us can agree that we hoped this fight would diffuse some of the differences between you, but seeing you both speak respectfully after everything that has happened is the biggest and best suprise, and an example of true sportsmanship 👏🏽👏🏽
I think there was just a bit of a misinterpretation regarding the tattoo (language barrier maybe). Eddie said he’ll get the tattoo. He was just making a comment saying that there was nothing in writing for it, however if he DIDN’T get it you probably wouldn’t offer him a rematch. So he knows he needs to get the tattoo either way, whether he wants to or not
Not in writing ... but come on ... it was documented in videos for millions of people to see. So, you mind as well call it a contract. If he doesn't honor it, it means his words are meaningless until it is written in a legal contract. But that's on Eddie.🤷♂
@@RunForPeace-hk1cu He said that there wasn’t anything in writing in the contract regarding the size, placement, color and font of the tattoo. He also said that he would get the tattoo, but since nothing was specified - he wanted to clear that, before getting the tattoo.
The problem is that they already have a verbal contract for the tattoo. It’s true that it wasn’t specific regarding size, location, etc., but they did verbally agree to the tattoo. So, they can add the tattoo into a rematch contract if they want, but Eddie should just keep his word on their original verbal contract.
I think Eddie is trying to hold the tattoo as leverage for a rematch, that way he doesn't get the tattoo and no guaranteed rematch. I don't agree with that though ofc, don't accept a bet you won't live up too
Happy to see the respect and humbleness between the two of you again. Frankly, the humbleness from you giants is what drew me to strongman and eventually you guys as individuals. Good job on the fight and best of luck to you.
Thor I can tell you have matured immensely. Not that you were ever immature, just a lot of mental and physical strength that I definitely admire. Keep pushing and enjoying your life big bro!
@@shafismaili1347 yeah that’s more what I was meaning. Eddie has always shown Thor full respect anytime Thor has ever beaten him in a contest. Like when Thor won Europes strongest man, Eddie gave him the utmost respect and congratulated him. He’s always been a good sportsman. Everyone has their bad times from time to time, not saying either is better than the other. I just don’t like Thor than much if I’m being honest, and nobody has to like anyone so some people in these comments need to calm down lol 😂
You looked amazing in the fight. You really transformed your body and you could see the dedication and hard work you put into this whole event. Much respect
I was a fan of Thor before all this. Eddie's message brought me into his camp as well because I didn't think Eddie could be so humble. Much respect to you both for coming out of your comfort zones & giving the blood & sweat to learn a whole new sport & taking the risk it takes to get hit by someone of either of your sizes. You've both got a lot of heart. Congratulations on the victory THOR! ✌🏾 👏🏾 🙌🏾 😀
@@jonlanier_ yea this was my response to Eddie's you tube video...(Im not sure why dddie keeps refering to himself as a man, i can exept defeat becase im a man, or the media sais things that could be upsetting to people, not me im a man...sex has nothing to do with it, we all get hurt he has trouble excepting that hes hurt, your only defeated if you dont get back up, thats the real fight. Seems a little bit staged, almost sincerely spoken.)
Eddie always been humble if you watched his vids, he puts on a cocky act during performing events such as strongman and now this, him in reality is just a family man keeping to himself. Think you guys are judging off of what you've seen none of you know the man, who knows except those around him.
It really is heartwarming seeing both Eddie and Thor say great things about each other again. Huge difference in attitudes towards each other compared to a month ago.
Incredible to see such understanding and respect following your battles. Bravo to you, to Eddie and for the spirit of sportsmanship and how true dedication can make such an impact on our lives
The main goal would be getting something good done through this ''disagreement'' between you and Eddy and you guys achieved that becoming better athletes a good show and money for charity its a win win situation. Cant wait to see who you fight next!
Its heartwarming to see you two showing respect for each other again. Maybe you guys can hang out and do a training video together before the next fight some time.
I just wanted to throw my two cents in about the tattoos. I think what eddie was saying was if there was a rematch done a clause would be drawn up in the contract that he had to get the tattoo before the rematch could be done. At least from my understanding that's what he meant
It’s crazy how initially I was almost emotionally invested in your fight. After I dead serious had to reevaluate my life. I deleted all social media and started getting back into my main hobbies with much more interest. Good luck to you both, glad to see you all moving on.
I will say I'm a big Eddie fan. I watched his journey up to the fight. In my opinion Thor you are one of the strongest men that has ever lived. Much respect. You won fair and square. No excuses. Congratulations Big man.
In the whole lead-up to this fight, I had no favorite but other than may the better man win. After seeing the videos you two put out after the fight... the winner has to be the fans in both camps that got to see our heroes stand up and show their full measure. I would love to be like either one of you when I grow up... even though I'm 11 years older than you! And if you're going to fight again, it has to be Mariusz!
The controversy at the strongman final was a humbling experience for Thor, the boxing match result was a humbling experience for Eddie. Time for the beef to be squashed once and for all and return to mutual respect as human beings and professional athletes. Love and respect to you both great video Thor.
@@Stonka1 he did actually, to eddie hall. In private and hall did say that he did. Eddie just really badly wants thor to do it publicly, which is stupid.
I'm happy to see you two reconciling, seeing you and Eddie's videos on RUclips always motivates me to keep going to my gym everyday and giving my all. I'm excited to see how you two develop as fighters. You had good form, and a decent 1-2 combination. I can't imagine what kind of animal you would be once you become confident in your rythm, master your jab, and utilize your bobbing and weaving more.
Awesome response from both of you and you are absolutely correct, there are only a handful of people that could push either of you to those lengths. Your average person would not be able to stomach a punch from a 300lb man who has that kind of strength. It was a fight and there was animosity, but through that you all gave each other a gift that no one else could have given you. Having been in fights myself, there is something gained through that kind of engagement that you can't put into words until you've felt it. In the end you can't even be mad at the other person, because you gained so much.
I must admit, I'm one of the people who thought you were slow, but the fight with Eddie proved that isn't the case at all. Methodical foot movement doesn't mean you're slow. It means you're purposeful and conserving energy unless you need to deviate from that. Your hand speed actually looked impressively fast and accurate.
He might be "Slow" compared to some crossfitter or middleweight boxer but he's definitely not slow, that's why he did so well at the moving events in strongman
This is a great example of two incredible athletes who, despite their differences over the past years, gave it all and rebuilt respect for each other. I'd offer they probably respect each other more now than was possible before the fight. Reminds me when men would settle their differences with honor then move on. Bravo boys!
Always have had great respect for these two guys. Sometimes Eddie being Eddie makes that difficult. Thor's response to the 2017 event caused a lot of people to lose respect for him but I hope that the two of them can move on. I think Eddie will get the tattoo but Thor is correct. It should be fairly soon and the signing for a second fight has nothing to do with any bets made on the first fight. Thor won the fight because he had a much better game-plan and he executed it very well. I think Eddie just expected to slug his way to a win. All of this to say, Damn is Thor's wife sexy and beautiful.
Thor was fine in 2017, he rightly questioned an event changing scandal and eddie tried to make it out to he something else. Only eddies braindead fans hated thor
I agree. Even if the tattoo thing didn't got written down.. we got literally video evidence on youtube of Thor offering the tattoo-deal AND Eddie's response in which he agreed to it. Even if he doesn't have to by contract. people WILL hold him accountable for what he said.. especially since ''i'm a man of my word'' is one of his personal creeds as well.
Man fight whoever you feel like. The important thing is that a word class athlete like you started something completely new like boxing. Thats shows two things. First the kind of athlete and person that you are and second the evolution of the sports in general trying and combining different kind of sports is the future.
I'm glad you and Eddie are now on decent terms... The toxicity and drama was getting exhausting. I'd love to see another fight but hopefully you guys can be friends and move on from the beef in the future for good.
Sometimes you have to kick somebody's ass and humble them if he didn't eddie would still be acting like a classless ass hole I lost lots of respect for him especially when he took a shot at Thor's mother.
Thor, well done! I was in Eddie’s corner but you’ve been an excellent competitor, and more than that you’ve been an upstanding man. Much respect and appreciation.
As someone on team Eddie, once again, gz on your victory! And great video, and although it sucks, I'm glad that you are holding Eddie accountable with the tatoo.
Class act as always. I think Eddie wants to fight mainly because he's got nothing to lose and wants to regain his bragging rights. You don't have anything to prove anymore however. If Eddie wants a fight it should be on your terms because your effectively doing him a favor. If you win again nothing changes, if you lose Eddie will have gained a lot. So if he wants the fight, that's fine, but yeah, do it in a year or two, and do some stuff in the meantime. I'll watch you fight whoever. Most important thing is to stay humble and not start this useless beef again, no one liked it, we don't want hostility between champions. Even if Eddie calls you out for not wanting an immediate rematch or something, just stay the bigger man by being respectful. Every insult you get that you answer with grace, is another victory for you.
I was Very fortunate to see you perform at WSM 2019 in Bradenton. I met and talked with both your Father and Grandfather. That experience really changed my life and got me into fitness. You and Eddie were always my favorites. You introduced me to a part of strength training that had an entire different mentality than bodybuilding. I fell in love with the comraderie and the respect for your fellow athletes. No backstabbing or hiding. You want to beat your competitors at their best. It's the only sport I know that is so honest and humble. Thank you both for introducing me to this wonderful community and sport. You are both role models and I look forward to your future endeavors.
Eddie says he's a man of his word, but he wants it in writing. He's a man of writing lol. Pretty sure his coach just opened a Barn door & said "do this over & over".
Mate ofc he’ll need it in writing cuz if he gets it then doesn’t get the rematch it won’t be fair, put yourself in his shoes instead of being a fan boy
@@ikrams4409 yes it is fair. He agreed that the loser of the first match will get a tattoo. He needs to get the tattoo either way, even if he doesn’t get the rematch. That is if he is a man of his word
@@ikrams4409 like why make a bet if u back off afterwards if it doesn’t go your way. The bet was getting a tattoo of : the world strongest man hathor julius bjornson(or eddie hall if he had won). Thor let him chose the size, positiion and everything else. He even said that on his initial video 5-6 months ago and eddie agreed to that.
@@potatowaffle5653 he has time to get the tattoo, he just need to come forward and say he will get it either way, like he said about paying charity and larry wheels. That's the only thing that kind of disappointed me
I really love seeing these 2 gents comming togother after all the conflict! I love watching both their training, love both their content! And absoutly love how humbled they are after the fact! Hope to see you guys comming togother as 1 and possibly doing some training, the limits that would be pushed past that are and would be huge, keep up the great work! Much love and respect! 💯
I like his response to the tattoo. He just wants him to get it, but he’s being really cool about it. “Under your hair, whatever size and color” Haha. Hopefully it’s genuine respect between them. I always wanted to see a collab with them
This looks like it's heading from a beef to a bromance! I'm guessing not really, but it's nice to see things respectful again. Edit: Also, good call on delaying the rematch a little. Martyn is the best choice out of those options by far, from a boxing perspective. Seeing either Paul brother getting punched in the face is always good, but that's a separate thing 😆
As a dude who rooted for Eddie but like and respect both of you. That fight was epic and both of you are handling the afterfight like gentlemen. You Thor with grace and Eddie with humility. Bravo gentlemen!
Since learning about this fight, I’ve gone back and learned so much about you and your career and it’s so good to see it all end on a positive note with some true respect shown between you two incredible athletes. Look forward to seeing you in the ring again
Love to see both you guys being so humble after the fight and showing respect towards each other. Good stuff. You backed your words with absolute class Thor, keep it up in your future journey. Look forward to seeing more from both of you in the future.
Doing a fight in the future as opposed to in the near future is a great plan, I love that, I agree that it will be a far better and complex fight with both of you having more experience in your arsenal and I understand why you say it likely isn't the best time for a rematch
I just want to say that you're one of my favorite people/role models... the way you handle yourself in and out of fights as a professional and man is something that all men should aspire to. I tend to not comment very much, but I wanted to let you know that; my choice would be Martyn Ford for your opponent… all the best to you and yours Hafthor Bjornson.
I'm a big fan of both of you and have followed your careers for a long time. I'm happy both of you have respect for each other. I love the idea of a rematch and the idea of you both having a few fights first then hype up the rematch . Big love
Honestly, kind words over drama is so refreshing to see nowadays. The sport/community so much fun to follow with all the different personalities just having the best time and putting out nothing but positivity... with the occasional bants :)
The amount of hype you guys created and fans you both separately picked up from this fight over the last while and now your both coming together and showing respect for eachother is a high IQ play. 👏 Picking up all those opposing fans I bet.
Loved the humility of Eddie's video, Loved the humility of your video thor! Can't wait to see whats next for yourself and hope to see a rematch with Eddie in the next few years 🤟
Great video Thor. I'm glad you and Eddie are all able to leave things in the past and move on for the better. You're both amazing athletes and inspirations to thousands worldwide.
Solid interview, Thor seems like a great guy very humble I like him and hope to see you have some success in future fights! Best of Luck! Peace ✌️ and Love from Canada 🍁 buddy!
I can’t wait to see you both fight again. I was one of them that doubted your ability to box. I eat my words and can say the progress you made during your training is pretty outstanding. I’ve always been a fan but did have my doubts. Eddie needs a lot of work before the rematch, going in with slugs flying didn’t work and I only hope he can change that. Great to see you both respecting each other.
I’ve always been team Eddie, still love Eddie, and never have I been against Thor at all, but this was a class act response. Very humble and professional, Thor. You already have the respect of thousands, if not millions, and this will only add to it. Good luck with whatever is on the agenda next!
I can honestly say that prior to the build-up to this fight, I was a big fan of Eddie's in general. Seeing the way he behaved however, vs the way that Thor behaved, I gained more and more respect for this man by the day. True, both men worked their asses off and I do believe fought their hardest in that fight, but Thor proved he was not only the superior fighter, but that he also carries himself like a true professional. For that? Thor has earned my respect and admiration. I can't wait to see who he fights next, and a big part of me does kinda hope it's Ford, because that fight has the potential to be something truly special to watch.
@@georgeglynn2380 bit scummy that Eddie's waiting for the promoters to pay eddie before paying larry wheels his bet. Larry couldnt pull a move like that had eddie won. It's either that or eddie said that the promoters are paying larry wheels bet which is scummier.
Level headed, mature and just sensible! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for your generous and humble attitude. Glad you have put things behind you and are moving forward in such a confident and gracious way.
Hmm ... I'd like to see you two do something ... joint. Maybe something like a strong man version of 'Survivor' or "Biggest Loser", you know, that sort of competition show. You and Eddie as coaches/mentors (Team Mountain v. Team Beast) and the contestants being some upcoming strongman prospects, or just some medically fit competitors and see how far you two can take them. Encouraging fitness and discipline/dedication, and both of you showed it in prepping for this match and in your Strongman careers, is a positive thing.
I have to be honest Thor! From the bottom of my heart you have my biggest congratulations! I watched the fight and was on the edge of my seat for the whole time! I love you both as wsm competitors but you have my biggest respect! Well done and cant wait to see what you do next! 🤗
Even with a gun I would fear M. Pudzianowski due to speed, strength, roids, etc. Thor is another story even w/roids, a beast for sure, but not on the same level as Pud.
Tbh, I was confident you'd lose the eddy hall fight... But fuck me, you improved A LOT and both your conditionings is beyond what I thought was possible! A fight between 2 titan weights and no one gets seriously injured of gases out.... Wtf?! With that said, the current fight was waaaay to close and if you can improve as much as you did, maybe eddy can as well.... You might win the rematch but at this rate I really dont know! Fight grizzly next!
I'm just so proud of both of you... Maybe not eddy as much cuz he had virtually no technique and relied on his head movement! ...but still proud of his power and conditioning... Like when he threw you 20ft into the ring with one punch, and you walked it off?! Never seen that EVER, let alone with a 350lbs man
Yeah, they basically had better cardio than ksi and Logan Paul at 150kg... I guess their bodies just adapt much better to any kind of training than others due to just having been generally athletic all their life. Besides, Eddie used to swim and Hafthor did basketball so...
I'm glad you were the winner Thor, you're a great athlete and I also think you're the one who best handled the pre-fight hype, your punches restored Eddie's humility, I hope he continues to be a good athlete and learns to be a good winner, I’ve always believed that what happened in 2017 was a misunderstanding that both did’nt know how to handle in the best way, you felt robbed and Eddie had the opportunity to approach you and make it clear that his victory was legitimate, but chose war… anyway, congratulations and it's good to see that in the end all this chaos brought growth for both of us, you're impressive!
Bringing his kid to laugh at you was the sign of a bully, something I've experinced. Personally, if I was you, I'd move on and have nothing to do with his rematchn but that's me. Stay safe and well and be happy. You were a gent throughout and I really have a lot of time for someone like you 👍🏽
I already wrote this on one of your previous videos but I want to repeat it because I think it's important to show you how much you are appreciated around the world. I think you are an awesome human being who puts a lot of thought into things. You are obviously a giant and have marvelous genetics which aren't going to waste and are well used looking on you're hard work. In my eyes you are truly a demigod a hero and a legend and I like to imagine that you're viking ancestors would be very very proud. I am from Germany and English is not my native tongue so please excuse my typing errors. Keep on the good work!
I wanted Eddie to win the fight because I am English, but I lost all respect for him after his antics. I’m happy that you won, you were the better boxer.
I am actually very happy that Thor won. If Eddie won, his ego would be over the roof and it's great that he lost because then it takes him down a peg. Now about KSI calling Thor out. There is absolutely no way KSI could beat Thor. There is a reason why there's weight classes. KSI is 5'10 weighing 190 pounds, Thor is 6'9 weighing 325 pounds of pure muscle. I don't care if KSI is faster, if Thor lands a good hit in then it's over for JJ.
It's amazing to be able to see two of the strongest men on the planet having squashed their beef and saying kind words for each other once again.
“Strongest men on earth” is an epic statement itself.
There is only one strongest man on this earth and that is The Mountain

Both you and Eddie are absolute legends. Unbelievably humble and candid from you both, you both deserve nothing but respect

You guys are both motivating people.
Thanks for all your efforts
Boxing is a science… not only brute hitting technique is the base… overconfidence blind him… he had learned a lot… technique in boxing 🥊 difference between them Thor learn boxing from 0… no ego… basics… hard work… Eddie was blind with his ego and no proper technique 🤷🏻♂️
@MSKSITO i dont think it was ego in the classical sense. I assume you mean it like how he was in the ring. His ego was more in the fact that he had much more street fighting experience (which we both know a fight outside a pub and a fight in a boxing ring are entirely different) than Thor. Massive respect to both, though. Glad things got to be worked out so they arent actively hating each other.
Not gunna lie, I was rooting for Eddie. That being said, the way you've handled yourself has definitely made me a fan. Thanks for the entertaining us. You're an amazing athlete
I always thought thor acted like a bit of a baby in 2017,but Eddie acted like a baby for the past year so I guess that cancels each other out😂😂
Same
Agree 100 %.
Thor handled this like a professional and I have massive respect for that.
I feel the same mate
@@HANGRYJIMLODLIFEALWAYSLOD Yeah, same here. I don't know how many people Thor or Eddie can fight, it's actually pretty amazing that they both survived the 6 rounds. I don't know how many people in the world are strong enough.
There's a lot people could learn from the both of you and this whole experience. The humility, hard work, and levels of mental toughness are amazing.
Thor, the way you conducted yourself before, during and after the fight is an inspiration & a demonstration of the values of a true gentleman & Warrior, full respect & blessings to you & all your family 💯
Is it an inspiration that he threw a drink that could have hit Eddie halls 9 year old son?
I wasn't a Thor fan but I am now. Great person 👍
@@AnythingGasoline look where his son was when he threw the can. He’s already been dragged away by his mum and whoever else it was when Eddie started squaring up to him (whilst next to his kid) maybe you should have another watch and tell me how the drink could have hit his son…
Underrated comment!!!
Thor did clearly show us how he is mentally strong not to make Eddie’s vulgarity and fragile masculinity lives rent free in his mind…From one side Thor made a point how to keep his cool as much as possible not to fell for the cheap bate…he was well prepared like a professional true noble warrior …confidence and professionalism is the key
Amazing to see such professionalism and high human capabilities.
It's been enough of trash talk and stupid things for the sake of biz show.
We need more of this, real people, real manners. Respect.
Maybe the feud between you and Eddie is a blessing in disguise, being 400ibs is not healthy, you lost the weight for this fight and you look so much healthier , so does Eddie. Respect too both of you.
Weight will come back on to push the limits of the lift once again!
@@d3kadE905 hopefully they don’t. Pushing that weight. Pushing the drugs. Pushing the food. They have kids and wives. No need to cause more damage to their bodies after they have both achieved the highest achievement (WSM)
@@d3kadE905 Pretty sure Eddie is retired fully from strongman, especially where his bicep has torn twice in the last few years. I'm sure Thor is thinking on the same wavelength.
Thor is back up there 🦍
whether u like him or not, u got to appreciate how thus man evolved over the years his achievements, strongman, movies, learning English, collaborations, boxing etc. he's on fire. props to you and we'll deserved
Exactly... I personally want Thor to be in more movies playing the hero/ protagonist role.
@@Nirsterkur like the rock
Tremendous respect Thor. Your response is so humble and heartfelt. I can’t wait to see what you and Eddie will move onto career wise.
I feel it's a pretty weak response honestly. He just repeated a little about what Eddie said and then went on to discuss his future plans. Pretty demanding with the tattoo thing too. There's such a thing as winning gracefully
From someone who is a big Eddie fan, I wana congratulate you thor on your win and the way you've handled yourself these last few weeks, shows what great spirit and deep down honesty as a decent respectable person you are! Guð veri með þér. x
Congratulations Thor! Hard work pays off 👏💪❤️🙏
I'm glad to see you two are putting the past behind you. I'll be honest, I wasn't on your side Thor. But Ive always respected you as an athlete and what you've achieved. Looking forward to seeing what you do in the future
I was rooting for Eddie, but i have to say the better boxer did win and you did it amazingly. Very nice to see the humbleness now after the fight and im gonna subscribe to you.
Cant wait to see who you will beat next!
I think even Eddie can’t argue with that. I think that’s a very popular view.
@@Beats101 can’t argue cause it’s the truth. Eddie had a punchers chance and Thor had the technical advantage. Happens in ufc all the time.
I couldn't of said it better myself! Well said! 💯
It's so great to see both Eddie and Thor finally being able to talk to each other like normal people again, with alot of respect and not just a bunch of trash talk.
Normal people don't talk just by uploading videos.
@@nikoolay its all for green card
I love seeing how far you've come. I remember you not really wanting to be talking on camera, almost being a bit awkward. Now you're a whole social media personality!
*Congrats on the huge win, you deserve it.*
Being brutally honest, while always being a fan of Eddie, and still being, I only ever looked at HIS side of things on the differences between you guys. However over these last few months? I really have seen how Thor has evolved into a more humble and disciplined athlete, and I have grown to become a big fan of him and his work and career too now, cheers. 🍻
Exactly all of Eddie fangirls are delusional and only root for him because they like him more, they don't look at both sides and see who is training harder or improving on technique. I knew from the very beginning that Thor was clearly more focused and dedicated because he lost the weight, has had boxing matches, and continuously worked on his technique while Eddie stayed fat and only threw haymakers 🤣 imagine being so obsessed with Eddie and still thinking he's going to win even after he showed no improvement in every one of his training vids. It's clear they are delusional and know nothing about boxing 🤣
@@marcom248 No one mentioned who they thought was going to win, the OP was talking about perspectives on ethics behind the confrontation. You're the 'fan-girl' trying to create beef in a comment section that has nothing to do with it. Itself in a video that has nothing to do with it. Good-job, clown.
@@Welari12 ok Eddie fangirl. your boyfriend Eddie got whooped 🤣 stay mad
@@marcom248 did you just completely fan-girl over thor then insult fans of eddie? I stg with this rivalry no one is just in between they're both amazing athletes who deserve massive respect you gotta chill ye a lot of fans of eddie only watch his side but you're proving that the same is true of fans of thor and you clearly don't understand how weight works did you honestly say eddie stayed fat? He weighed 7kg more than thor and still lost a massive amount of weight which is massively impressive even if thor did lose more just stop talking if you don't know what you're talking about
@@LouieWrites when did I fangirl over Thor? I looked at both athletes and reviewed training/sparring footage from them, it was clear who was going to win. Eddie lacked discipline and had yes men in his corner to massage his ego and look what that did to him in the end. Eddie didn't even take the time to learn the fundamentals of boxing yet you still believed in him because you fangirls have just as big of an ego and refuse to believe Thor could be training harder than him
Honestly,Thor, you improved so much,I don't see the benefit for a rematch with Eddie immediately and fighting some other fights for a couple of years makes complete sense, chase the money, don't care who the opponents are. God bless, best of luck, but as well as you prepare,you make your own luck! Fantastic work.
Well, then eddie should get the tatto later also.
Thor should box the actor who plays the hound
@@justinmacarrhur1924 the tattoo never was a condition for a rematch lol
200k and the tattoo were something the loser had to do and Eddie lost.
@@basti__ They both have to donate 200K though, the winner just gets to choose which charitys. That's nice of them though, if it was my fight I'm not donating anything unless I was getting paid millions and millions lol
@@basti__ that is just nonsense. Eddie should not get it until rematch .
At the end of the day, you're both humans, both men and both have families to care for. You both acknowledge that, and showed real class. Bravo to both of you.
Weird how two of the biggest and strongest men to EVER LIVE are showing a better example of respect than Hollywood movie stars.
Why’s that weird? Hollywood stars are pr*cks! Full of themselves, in their own bubble and don’t live in the real world.
Doesn't seem weird at all to me. Hollywood is the last place I would look for respect and humility.
I don't get it. Are big strong men supposed to be disrespectful and movie stars are supposed to be respectful?
Wrong, thor only changed his afterfights videos cuz of eddie .
How is that weird ? it's anything but weird, you really need to wake up asap. Hollywood is a place full of pervs, liars and ccriminals of worst kind.
This is exactly what I hoped would happend. I had your back the entire time man, but I still respected you both and hoped that you would "Bury the hatchet". Great response
Well said Thor, being a Brit I was always going to be Team Eddie, but you frankly out boxed him on the night, I’m so glad you two are able to be gracious about each other as you both know what it took to train and get in that ring. 👍🏻
I don’t like Eddie anymore, he’s a disgrace to our country with all the antics he got up to.
Wiping his arse on the seat, that’s the sort of thing I’d have done in primary school.
im english and i wanted thor to smash his face in. makes no difference.
@@Connor-kc2ns makes no difference? Apologies, I didn’t realise all us English people had to have the same opinion 🤦🏼♂️
@@Connor-kc2ns I like Eddie but I agree he kind of took things too far in the build up.
@@JR28. Yeah, totally tasteless and lacking in class but I loved his reaction 'post fight', spoken like a man, truthfully and from the heart.
Pax dude.
Big respect! I think a lot of us can agree that we hoped this fight would diffuse some of the differences between you, but seeing you both speak respectfully after everything that has happened is the biggest and best suprise, and an example of true sportsmanship 👏🏽👏🏽
I think there was just a bit of a misinterpretation regarding the tattoo (language barrier maybe).
Eddie said he’ll get the tattoo. He was just making a comment saying that there was nothing in writing for it, however if he DIDN’T get it you probably wouldn’t offer him a rematch. So he knows he needs to get the tattoo either way, whether he wants to or not
Not in writing ... but come on ... it was documented in videos for millions of people to see. So, you mind as well call it a contract. If he doesn't honor it, it means his words are meaningless until it is written in a legal contract.
But that's on Eddie.🤷♂
It doesn’t matter if it was in writing or not. That verbally agreed to it. That’s all you need.
@@RunForPeace-hk1cu He said that there wasn’t anything in writing in the contract regarding the size, placement, color and font of the tattoo. He also said that he would get the tattoo, but since nothing was specified -
he wanted to clear that, before getting the tattoo.
The problem is that they already have a verbal contract for the tattoo. It’s true that it wasn’t specific regarding size, location, etc., but they did verbally agree to the tattoo. So, they can add the tattoo into a rematch contract if they want, but Eddie should just keep his word on their original verbal contract.
I think Eddie is trying to hold the tattoo as leverage for a rematch, that way he doesn't get the tattoo and no guaranteed rematch. I don't agree with that though ofc, don't accept a bet you won't live up too
Happy to see the respect and humbleness between the two of you again. Frankly, the humbleness from you giants is what drew me to strongman and eventually you guys as individuals. Good job on the fight and best of luck to you.
Thor I can tell you have matured immensely. Not that you were ever immature, just a lot of mental and physical strength that I definitely admire. Keep pushing and enjoying your life big bro!
I love the respect between you guys now - this was all for the better
Sorry but Thors words sound hollow and forced. Thor doesn’t respect Eddie as an athlete at all. Thor respects only himself
@@AnythingGasoline Eddie said nice things, Thor did as well... you go get a Life, get over It buck'o
@@AnythingGasoline I think he respects Eddie as an athlete, but the warmth wasn't there, was it.
Eddie sounded like he was more over it all.
@@antoniocenteno1483 You could see what Eddie said was meaningful, Thors words in this video are cold. Calm down pal, everyone is allowed an opinion.
@@shafismaili1347 yeah that’s more what I was meaning. Eddie has always shown Thor full respect anytime Thor has ever beaten him in a contest. Like when Thor won Europes strongest man, Eddie gave him the utmost respect and congratulated him. He’s always been a good sportsman. Everyone has their bad times from time to time, not saying either is better than the other. I just don’t like Thor than much if I’m being honest, and nobody has to like anyone so some people in these comments need to calm down lol 😂
You looked amazing in the fight. You really transformed your body and you could see the dedication and hard work you put into this whole event. Much respect
I was a fan of Thor before all this. Eddie's message brought me into his camp as well because I didn't think Eddie could be so humble. Much respect to you both for coming out of your comfort zones & giving the blood & sweat to learn a whole new sport & taking the risk it takes to get hit by someone of either of your sizes. You've both got a lot of heart. Congratulations on the victory THOR! ✌🏾 👏🏾 🙌🏾 😀
Eddie faked his humility. C'mon man... you don't change overnight. His people got him to change course.
@@jonlanier_ well... technically it's been 8 days since he made the video
@@jonlanier_ yea this was my response to Eddie's you tube video...(Im not sure why dddie keeps refering to himself as a man, i can exept defeat becase im a man, or the media sais things that could be upsetting to people, not me im a man...sex has nothing to do with it, we all get hurt he has trouble excepting that hes hurt, your only defeated if you dont get back up, thats the real fight. Seems a little bit staged, almost sincerely spoken.)
What a stupid switch of sides. 🤦🏻♂️
Eddie always been humble if you watched his vids, he puts on a cocky act during performing events such as strongman and now this, him in reality is just a family man keeping to himself. Think you guys are judging off of what you've seen none of you know the man, who knows except those around him.
It really is heartwarming seeing both Eddie and Thor say great things about each other again. Huge difference in attitudes towards each other compared to a month ago.
Eddie wouldn’t be nice if he had won
@@Viralclown you’re right
Incredible to see such understanding and respect following your battles. Bravo to you, to Eddie and for the spirit of sportsmanship and how true dedication can make such an impact on our lives
The main goal would be getting something good done through this ''disagreement'' between you and Eddy and you guys achieved that becoming better athletes a good show and money for charity its a win win situation. Cant wait to see who you fight next!
Its heartwarming to see you two showing respect for each other again. Maybe you guys can hang out and do a training video together before the next fight some time.
Shoop-aah.
Kinda wonder why Thor didnt say that there isn't any anger between the both of them anymore at the end of the video.
@@LordVetinari69 right? eddie said its all in the past now.
@@LordVetinari69 because 💰💰💰
I just wanted to throw my two cents in about the tattoos. I think what eddie was saying was if there was a rematch done a clause would be drawn up in the contract that he had to get the tattoo before the rematch could be done. At least from my understanding that's what he meant
Respect Thor. The high road is always the road with the best view. I have so much respect for you and how you approach these things. Well done!
When you do get the money and decide on the charity, it would be really cool to see you and Eddie together to hand off the check
Both of your videos showed a lot of heart, humility, and honesty. I'm glad to see you guys having this level of resolution.
It’s crazy how initially I was almost emotionally invested in your fight. After I dead serious had to reevaluate my life. I deleted all social media and started getting back into my main hobbies with much more interest. Good luck to you both, glad to see you all moving on.
Can I ask - how did this fight make you reevaluate your life ?
youtube is social media..
WTF 🥴
@@SamSarwat90 I assume he means he deleted the apps from his phone. Not the only way you can access social media you know
I was in the same boat. This fight meant everything to me.... Everything... I lost my family in a bet. With that said, I have recovered nicely.
You have both conducted this whole post fight perfectly, huge respect to both of you and can't wait to see what you both do next!
I will say I'm a big Eddie fan. I watched his journey up to the fight. In my opinion Thor you are one of the strongest men that has ever lived. Much respect. You won fair and square. No excuses. Congratulations Big man.
In the whole lead-up to this fight, I had no favorite but other than may the better man win.
After seeing the videos you two put out after the fight... the winner has to be the fans in both camps that got to see our heroes stand up and show their full measure. I would love to be like either one of you when I grow up... even though I'm 11 years older than you!
And if you're going to fight again, it has to be Mariusz!
The controversy at the strongman final was a humbling experience for Thor, the boxing match result was a humbling experience for Eddie. Time for the beef to be squashed once and for all and return to mutual respect as human beings and professional athletes. Love and respect to you both great video Thor.
I agree but the difference is Eddie was humble in defeat, Thor still hasn't apologised for 2017.
The beef will likely come back stronger once the rematch is schedule and it's time to sell it.
@@Stonka1 he did actually, to eddie hall. In private and hall did say that he did. Eddie just really badly wants thor to do it publicly, which is stupid.
I'm happy to see you two reconciling, seeing you and Eddie's videos on RUclips always motivates me to keep going to my gym everyday and giving my all. I'm excited to see how you two develop as fighters. You had good form, and a decent 1-2 combination. I can't imagine what kind of animal you would be once you become confident in your rythm, master your jab, and utilize your bobbing and weaving more.
Awesome response from both of you and you are absolutely correct, there are only a handful of people that could push either of you to those lengths. Your average person would not be able to stomach a punch from a 300lb man who has that kind of strength. It was a fight and there was animosity, but through that you all gave each other a gift that no one else could have given you. Having been in fights myself, there is something gained through that kind of engagement that you can't put into words until you've felt it. In the end you can't even be mad at the other person, because you gained so much.
I must admit, I'm one of the people who thought you were slow, but the fight with Eddie proved that isn't the case at all. Methodical foot movement doesn't mean you're slow. It means you're purposeful and conserving energy unless you need to deviate from that. Your hand speed actually looked impressively fast and accurate.
His left hand is much quicker than he shows on pad & bag videos.
it's amazing how much power he has, with the obvious reach.
His new trainer has done wonders tbh
He might be "Slow" compared to some crossfitter or middleweight boxer but he's definitely not slow, that's why he did so well at the moving events in strongman
This is a great example of two incredible athletes who, despite their differences over the past years, gave it all and rebuilt respect for each other. I'd offer they probably respect each other more now than was possible before the fight. Reminds me when men would settle their differences with honor then move on. Bravo boys!
Respect to both of you. Cant wait to see where you both go from here
Look at the thumbnail. So cheap. The only thing you can see it s the tatto. This guy is so weak and primitive and vile.
Always have had great respect for these two guys. Sometimes Eddie being Eddie makes that difficult. Thor's response to the 2017 event caused a lot of people to lose respect for him but I hope that the two of them can move on. I think Eddie will get the tattoo but Thor is correct. It should be fairly soon and the signing for a second fight has nothing to do with any bets made on the first fight. Thor won the fight because he had a much better game-plan and he executed it very well. I think Eddie just expected to slug his way to a win. All of this to say, Damn is Thor's wife sexy and beautiful.
Thor was fine in 2017, he rightly questioned an event changing scandal and eddie tried to make it out to he something else. Only eddies braindead fans hated thor
Why the fuck would you ruin this comment with that last sentence
I agree. Even if the tattoo thing didn't got written down.. we got literally video evidence on youtube of Thor offering the tattoo-deal AND Eddie's response in which he agreed to it. Even if he doesn't have to by contract. people WILL hold him accountable for what he said.. especially since ''i'm a man of my word'' is one of his personal creeds as well.
I gotta say Thor, you have really made a fan out of me. You are a great person
Thor is just pure class👏🏻👌🏻
Honestly really refreshing to see you both getting over the past and putting your differences behind you.
Well done Thor, In a crazy world it is so heartening to see you both giving respect to each other. Life is short!
Man fight whoever you feel like. The important thing is that a word class athlete like you started something completely new like boxing. Thats shows two things. First the kind of athlete and person that you are and second the evolution of the sports in general trying and combining different kind of sports is the future.
Yeah but is it even legal for him to Box someone like ksi? I mean if he isnt carefull he could easily squish that little mans head...
I'm glad you and Eddie are now on decent terms... The toxicity and drama was getting exhausting. I'd love to see another fight but hopefully you guys can be friends and move on from the beef in the future for good.
Sometimes you have to kick somebody's ass and humble them if he didn't eddie would still be acting like a classless ass hole I lost lots of respect for him especially when he took a shot at Thor's mother.
Thor, well done! I was in Eddie’s corner but you’ve been an excellent competitor, and more than that you’ve been an upstanding man. Much respect and appreciation.
You show class from beginning to end! You have all of my respect!
💯
As someone on team Eddie, once again, gz on your victory! And great video, and although it sucks, I'm glad that you are holding Eddie accountable with the tatoo.
Class act as always.
I think Eddie wants to fight mainly because he's got nothing to lose and wants to regain his bragging rights. You don't have anything to prove anymore however. If Eddie wants a fight it should be on your terms because your effectively doing him a favor. If you win again nothing changes, if you lose Eddie will have gained a lot. So if he wants the fight, that's fine, but yeah, do it in a year or two, and do some stuff in the meantime. I'll watch you fight whoever.
Most important thing is to stay humble and not start this useless beef again, no one liked it, we don't want hostility between champions. Even if Eddie calls you out for not wanting an immediate rematch or something, just stay the bigger man by being respectful. Every insult you get that you answer with grace, is another victory for you.
You're taking a little too high of a stand here. Hafthor offered the rematch AT the fight.
I was Very fortunate to see you perform at WSM 2019 in Bradenton. I met and talked with both your Father and Grandfather. That experience really changed my life and got me into fitness. You and Eddie were always my favorites. You introduced me to a part of strength training that had an entire different mentality than bodybuilding. I fell in love with the comraderie and the respect for your fellow athletes. No backstabbing or hiding. You want to beat your competitors at their best. It's the only sport I know that is so honest and humble. Thank you both for introducing me to this wonderful community and sport. You are both role models and I look forward to your future endeavors.
Eddie says he's a man of his word, but he wants it in writing. He's a man of writing lol. Pretty sure his coach just opened a Barn door & said "do this over & over".
Mate ofc he’ll need it in writing cuz if he gets it then doesn’t get the rematch it won’t be fair, put yourself in his shoes instead of being a fan boy
@@ikrams4409 yes it is fair. He agreed that the loser of the first match will get a tattoo. He needs to get the tattoo either way, even if he doesn’t get the rematch. That is if he is a man of his word
@@ikrams4409 like why make a bet if u back off afterwards if it doesn’t go your way. The bet was getting a tattoo of : the world strongest man hathor julius bjornson(or eddie hall if he had won). Thor let him chose the size, positiion and everything else. He even said that on his initial video 5-6 months ago and eddie agreed to that.
@@novicelifts5197 this is what he said and so far has not lived up to his word
@@potatowaffle5653 he has time to get the tattoo, he just need to come forward and say he will get it either way, like he said about paying charity and larry wheels. That's the only thing that kind of disappointed me
I really love seeing these 2 gents comming togother after all the conflict! I love watching both their training, love both their content! And absoutly love how humbled they are after the fact! Hope to see you guys comming togother as 1 and possibly doing some training, the limits that would be pushed past that are and would be huge, keep up the great work! Much love and respect! 💯
I like his response to the tattoo. He just wants him to get it, but he’s being really cool about it. “Under your hair, whatever size and color”
Haha.
Hopefully it’s genuine respect between them. I always wanted to see a collab with them
"thor is the worlds strongest man after i retired"
Would be good to see a gym session video with Thor & Eddie!
This looks like it's heading from a beef to a bromance! I'm guessing not really, but it's nice to see things respectful again.
Edit: Also, good call on delaying the rematch a little. Martyn is the best choice out of those options by far, from a boxing perspective. Seeing either Paul brother getting punched in the face is always good, but that's a separate thing 😆
As a dude who rooted for Eddie but like and respect both of you. That fight was epic and both of you are handling the afterfight like gentlemen. You Thor with grace and Eddie with humility. Bravo gentlemen!
Very respectful & humble response Thor, much respect to you!
Since learning about this fight, I’ve gone back and learned so much about you and your career and it’s so good to see it all end on a positive note with some true respect shown between you two incredible athletes. Look forward to seeing you in the ring again
Love to see both you guys being so humble after the fight and showing respect towards each other. Good stuff. You backed your words with absolute class Thor, keep it up in your future journey. Look forward to seeing more from both of you in the future.
Doing a fight in the future as opposed to in the near future is a great plan, I love that, I agree that it will be a far better and complex fight with both of you having more experience in your arsenal and I understand why you say it likely isn't the best time for a rematch
This changed my whole perspective of you Thor. Enough said best of luck on your future endeavors.
How come. He was always like this. Eddie fanboys just didn't know him.
Eddie wasn’t hydrated 😂
martin ford next
My happiness in coming back to this after a couple of years is just plain awesome.
I just want to say that you're one of my favorite people/role models... the way you handle yourself in and out of fights as a professional and man is something that all men should aspire to. I tend to not comment very much, but I wanted to let you know that; my choice would be Martyn Ford for your opponent… all the best to you and yours Hafthor Bjornson.
I'm a big fan of both of you and have followed your careers for a long time. I'm happy both of you have respect for each other. I love the idea of a rematch and the idea of you both having a few fights first then hype up the rematch . Big love
Honestly, kind words over drama is so refreshing to see nowadays.
The sport/community so much fun to follow with all the different personalities just having the best time and putting out nothing but positivity... with the occasional bants :)
Moment of silence for all those british geezers who bet their house and life time saving on Eddie lol
Voting and betting are two things you should never do with your emotions.
The amount of hype you guys created and fans you both separately picked up from this fight over the last while and now your both coming together and showing respect for eachother is a high IQ play. 👏 Picking up all those opposing fans I bet.
Sometimes it takes smacking the shit out each other to be good friends
Loved the humility of Eddie's video, Loved the humility of your video thor! Can't wait to see whats next for yourself and hope to see a rematch with Eddie in the next few years 🤟
Great video Thor. I'm glad you and Eddie are all able to leave things in the past and move on for the better. You're both amazing athletes and inspirations to thousands worldwide.
Solid interview, Thor seems like a great guy very humble I like him and hope to see you have some success in future fights! Best of Luck! Peace ✌️ and Love from Canada 🍁 buddy!
I can’t wait to see you both fight again.
I was one of them that doubted your ability to box. I eat my words and can say the progress you made during your training is pretty outstanding.
I’ve always been a fan but did have my doubts. Eddie needs a lot of work before the rematch, going in with slugs flying didn’t work and I only hope he can change that.
Great to see you both respecting each other.
I’ve always been team Eddie, still love Eddie, and never have I been against Thor at all, but this was a class act response. Very humble and professional, Thor. You already have the respect of thousands, if not millions, and this will only add to it. Good luck with whatever is on the agenda next!
I can honestly say that prior to the build-up to this fight, I was a big fan of Eddie's in general. Seeing the way he behaved however, vs the way that Thor behaved, I gained more and more respect for this man by the day. True, both men worked their asses off and I do believe fought their hardest in that fight, but Thor proved he was not only the superior fighter, but that he also carries himself like a true professional. For that? Thor has earned my respect and admiration. I can't wait to see who he fights next, and a big part of me does kinda hope it's Ford, because that fight has the potential to be something truly special to watch.
Eddie -" I am a man of my words.""
Also, Eddie- "There was nothing written about the Tattoo"
🤦🤦🤦
Not to forget Uuuh buuh, people are so harsh and mean sob sob. The likes of a hypocrite you have to search a long time for. Eddie the Clown.
he said he’s still getting the tattoo ? your point being….
@@georgeglynn2380 no, that is incorrect. First he said no, now the femi changedhis mind. Point be, you are femies.
@@georgeglynn2380 bit scummy that Eddie's waiting for the promoters to pay eddie before paying larry wheels his bet. Larry couldnt pull a move like that had eddie won. It's either that or eddie said that the promoters are paying larry wheels bet which is scummier.
Level headed, mature and just sensible! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for your generous and humble attitude. Glad you have put things behind you and are moving forward in such a confident and gracious way.
Hmm ...
I'd like to see you two do something ... joint. Maybe something like a strong man version of 'Survivor' or "Biggest Loser", you know, that sort of competition show. You and Eddie as coaches/mentors (Team Mountain v. Team Beast) and the contestants being some upcoming strongman prospects, or just some medically fit competitors and see how far you two can take them. Encouraging fitness and discipline/dedication, and both of you showed it in prepping for this match and in your Strongman careers, is a positive thing.
I have to be honest Thor! From the bottom of my heart you have my biggest congratulations! I watched the fight and was on the edge of my seat for the whole time! I love you both as wsm competitors but you have my biggest respect! Well done and cant wait to see what you do next! 🤗
This comment exactly looks like something I typed, so I will say 'I whole heartedly second this comment!' 😍
Mariusz Pudzianowski vs Thor !! who wants to see this like the comment !
Even with a gun I would fear M. Pudzianowski due to speed, strength, roids, etc. Thor is another story even w/roids, a beast for sure, but not on the same level as Pud.
No more fighting. I want to see you both back in strongman!!!!!!!
Tbh, I was confident you'd lose the eddy hall fight... But fuck me, you improved A LOT and both your conditionings is beyond what I thought was possible! A fight between 2 titan weights and no one gets seriously injured of gases out.... Wtf?!
With that said, the current fight was waaaay to close and if you can improve as much as you did, maybe eddy can as well.... You might win the rematch but at this rate I really dont know!
Fight grizzly next!
I'm just so proud of both of you... Maybe not eddy as much cuz he had virtually no technique and relied on his head movement!
...but still proud of his power and conditioning... Like when he threw you 20ft into the ring with one punch, and you walked it off?! Never seen that EVER, let alone with a 350lbs man
Yeah, they basically had better cardio than ksi and Logan Paul at 150kg... I guess their bodies just adapt much better to any kind of training than others due to just having been generally athletic all their life. Besides, Eddie used to swim and Hafthor did basketball so...
To be honest. I dont want to see a rematch... you are above this in my opinion. Take a break enjoy your family, you deserve it ❤
IT,s Nice to see bouth of u being humble after the feud
I'm glad you were the winner Thor, you're a great athlete and I also think you're the one who best handled the pre-fight hype, your punches restored Eddie's humility, I hope he continues to be a good athlete and learns to be a good winner, I’ve always believed that what happened in 2017 was a misunderstanding that both did’nt know how to handle in the best way, you felt robbed and Eddie had the opportunity to approach you and make it clear that his victory was legitimate, but chose war… anyway, congratulations and it's good to see that in the end all this chaos brought growth for both of us, you're impressive!
Bringing his kid to laugh at you was the sign of a bully, something I've experinced. Personally, if I was you, I'd move on and have nothing to do with his rematchn but that's me.
Stay safe and well and be happy.
You were a gent throughout and I really have a lot of time for someone like you 👍🏽
Agreed, I felt that was very unnecessary on Eddie's part. His smugness got the best of him though.
I already wrote this on one of your previous videos but I want to repeat it because I think it's important to show you how much you are appreciated around the world.
I think you are an awesome human being who puts a lot of thought into things.
You are obviously a giant and have marvelous genetics which aren't going to waste and are well used looking on you're hard work.
In my eyes you are truly a demigod a hero and a legend and I like to imagine that you're viking ancestors would be very very proud.
I am from Germany and English is not my native tongue so please excuse my typing errors.
Keep on the good work!
I wanted Eddie to win the fight because I am English, but I lost all respect for him after his antics.
I’m happy that you won, you were the better boxer.
I am actually very happy that Thor won. If Eddie won, his ego would be over the roof and it's great that he lost because then it takes him down a peg. Now about KSI calling Thor out. There is absolutely no way KSI could beat Thor. There is a reason why there's weight classes. KSI is 5'10 weighing 190 pounds, Thor is 6'9 weighing 325 pounds of pure muscle. I don't care if KSI is faster, if Thor lands a good hit in then it's over for JJ.
