Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn has unequivocally shut down any suggestion of a boxing match with Thor Bjornsson in an expletive response.
Company CEO Frank Smith had suggested that the 42-year-old should fight ‘The Mountain’ after a video emerged of Hearn dropping him during an in-house contest between the pair. “Every time I thought I'd throw a punch I was scared he was going to throw one back,” he told Pro Boxing Fans (via the Mirror ).
“I'm not one of these tough guys, I'll be honest. I quite enjoy doing it for fitness, I find there's no better fitness than that, so I think I'll let someone else do it, but maybe Eddie could fight Thor.
