Two of the biggest human forces on the planet are set to collide in the boxing ring as Icelandic man mountain Hafthor Julius Bjornsson and UK strongman Eddie Hall confirmed an ‘official’ showdown between the pair in Las Vegas.
Bjornsson, widely known for his role as aptly named character ‘The Mountain’ in hit series Game of Thrones, stunned fans at the weekend by breaking the world deadlift record previously held by Hall, lifting a colossal 1,105lbs.
But not content with besting Hall’s record, Bjornsson then said he wanted to pound Hall to a pulp in the ring as he called his fellow muscleman out for a boxing bout.

English muscleman Hall, 32, soon shot back, vowing he would accept the challenge.
The uber-heavyweight showdown now appears a step closer to reality after both men teased an “official” date and venue for the fight, stating they will collide in Las Vegas in September of next year.
