Eddie Hall must get special tattoo after losing Thor fight in Dubai

Eddie Hall must get a Hafthor Bjornsson tattoo after losing Saturday night’s fight in Dubai. Hall lost on points having been dropped twice in the grudge match.

The two former World's Strongest Man winners were originally set to fight back in September 2021, before Hall pulled out with a bicep injury. Both fighters cut their weight drastically for what was still labelled the 'heaviest boxing match in history'.

The former strongmen agreed to a special bet last year that would see the loser of the fight have their opponent’s name tattooed on their skin. Hall, 34, therefore must now have "World’s Strongest Man" and Bjornsson’s name inked on permanently.
