    That guy at 5:50 is exactly who you need to be training with. Someone who knows how to move, is fast on his feet and will attack with no hesitation. That is good practice, and will help you stay on your toes and focus on staying alert. Good progress Hafthor, you're lighter on your feet , just keep at it .

      Mark could have clocked him a few times, but held off, I assume, because he doesn't want to give Thor a concussion. This is against a guy that's half his size. Thor has a lot of work left to do. I still don't understand why Thor, one of the strongest men on the planet and an absolute monster, wants to challenge Eddie in boxing, rather than a strongman comp.

    Thor is definitely putting in the work. He's never been an athletic moving sort of guy, he can move explosive fast in certain movements, he proved that in strongman, but coordinated quick movements have always been tough for him. However, he has always been able to overcome his weaknesses with training. I don't think it will be any different here. He's moving better and better and I think he may be sand bagging in the videos a bit. I think Eddie has an edge at the moment, but not as much of one that many seem to think. Still a year away, eddie also plays too much on his channel, I think he may see some injuries while training. Eddie is probably my favorite strongman, and while he does talk a monstrous amount of shit, he has always shown good sportsmanship and I feel his beef is justified.

They got on professionally just fine before that.

      So yeah, overall Thor is surely the stronger man, but that doesn't mean shit in the ring and he should be aware of it and get humble. Right now it looks like he's on the losing side of a boxing match that will be dull and yet interesting on an anthropological level...

      At this stage im not sure who`s fault it is, but regardless hes not able to put much of his massive body into his punches which will be one of his few advantages VS Eddie.
      Eddie have had propper training and have a much better understanding how it all works. Hafthor`s punches look meesly for a guy with that enormous body. i mean his calves are bigger than most guys thighs, he need to use all of his body if he wants to win.
      I have never trained boxing but I understand the basics and have felt the difference when actually using the whole body when hitting. It has a massive impact on the poweroutput.
