Eddie Hall breaks silence after Hafthor Bjornsson loss

Last night, Eddie Hall was beaten unanimously on the judges’ scorecards by Hafthor Bjornsson, who left him with a nasty gash just above his right eye.

However, in the early hours of this morning, he released an Instagram video expressing his thoughts on the fight and claims he will take the defeat ‘like a man’.

Hall said: “You know what, I can take things like a man. It is what it is, that’s boxing. I’ve just fought the biggest man on the planet in a boxing match. I’d like to see anyone else get the balls and do that.”

This shows us that despite the defeat, Hall is still very proud of his achievements and demands respect after taking ‘the biggest man on the planet’ the whole six rounds.

The most exciting part fans took from Hall’s reaction video was when he said: “It’s been a hell of a journey; I’ve enjoyed it and hopefully there’s a rematch and we can do business again.”

Hall is determined and keen to get fighting again, but whether that will be against Thor or not we will have to wait and find out.

During the fight, Hall was knocked down twice, but managed to battle on until the final bell and was beaten on a points decision. There were no complaints from either fighter and Bjornsson simply said: “Thank you very much” to the former World’s Strongest Man and they both have seemed to move on with a lot more respect for each other.

Unsurprisingly, not all fans enjoyed the fight as much as Thor as the stream went down more times than Eddie Hall did. The event as a whole was described as a mess by many viewers, with lots criticising the production throughout.

One fan tweeted: “Not only did the event not know how to run a stream, the fighters also didn’t know how to fight.”

Another claimed: “I didn’t even pay for the fight,
