Eddie Hall vs Hafthor Bjornsson: Who has made more money on YouTube?
Eddie Hall and Hafthor Bjornsson are two of the biggest names in strongman lifting.
Both men will be facing off in the boxing ring for the first time, to settle a feud that has been ongoing for the past few years, following a controversial end to the World’s Strongest Man (WSM) competition in 2017.
To this day, Bjornsson, who is also known as “The Mountain”, believes that he was robbed out of victory after he was adjudged to have not completed one of his repetitions correctly and made pretty eye-opening accusations towards referee Colin Bryce and Hall himself.
The Viking lift section of the contest was the exercise that came under the spotlight, where Bjornsson was deemed to have bent his legs which is against the rules and ended in Hall being crowned as the champion.
As a result, a bitter rivalry between the two men blossomed. Hall and Bjornsson, who the former admitted used to be friends, have not been on speaking terms since and they have chosen to settle their differences inside a boxing ring.
While both have had phenomenal success in strongman competition over the years, the pair have been equally as prosperous over on social media platform YouTube.
