World’s Scariest Man Martyn Ford Thinks Hafthor Bjornsson Is ‘Too Soft’ for Boxing

A boxing scrap between Hafthor Bjornsson and Eddie Hall might be a ‘never-seen-before incident’ that can bring immense viewership to the sport. Although celebrities and Internet stars stepping inside the ring are no longer surprising, the collision between two former ‘World Strongest Man’ winners will be massive.

As this celebrity bout is doing the rounds, Hafthor Bjornsson has come across one of his critics. Dubbed as the ‘scariest man in the world’, actor Martyn Ford believes ‘The Mountain’ isn’t made for the sport of boxing.

In an exclusive chat with IFL TV, Ford said, “Thor has been very edgy the last two days. Like I said before this fight, I was like, I think Thor is too soft. I think he has just not got that ‘(signaling energy).’”

Hafthor Bjornsson has been a weight lifter his whole life. In order to prepare for a boxing bout, he joined forces with Tyson Fury and seemingly honed his pugilistic skills.

Meanwhile, Eddie Hall is also putting in the hard yards and gearing up for the showdown. Hence, all eyes will be on the strongman boxing bout.

Can ‘The Mountain’ Hafthor Bjornsson perform well inside the ring?

It’s hard to picture an official outcome of the fight as neither man has any prominent experience in the sport. Unless they enter the ring and trade blows, it will be unfair to write either man off.

Hall and Bjornsson may not offer a boxing clinic or a technical showdown, but they have the power to make one punch count. Given their lack of experience and phenomenal power, it seems as though one punch is all it will take when they collide.

Both men are currently focused on their training camps. Their regular vlogs on YouTube reflect the kind of effort they are putting in. Hence, it makes sense for the boxing fans to pose their interest in the fight.
