Hafthor Bjornsson flaunts phenomenal physique two weeks before Eddie Hall fight
Hafthor Bjornsson has showed off his phenomenal physique with a little over two weeks until his long-awaited fight against Eddie Hall.
Bjornsson and Hall, both former winners of the World's Strongest Man competition, have been feuding for the best part of five years.
They agreed to settle their differences in the boxing ring all the way back in November 2020, but they had to postpone last year after Hall suffered an injury.
"The Heaviest Boxing Match in History" on March 19 is now in sight, barring any last-minute complications – and Bjornsson looks to have made the most of the extra preparation time.
The Icelandic strongman had already cut a significant amount of weight when arm wrestler Devon Larratt stepped in to replace Hall last year.
His 205kg frame had been shredded by 50kg, roughly 25% of his body weight.
And now he's even lighter at 145kg.
That has left him toned to the max which he displayed in a social media post where he skipped in a video.

Bjornsson did offer a slightly worrying update on his condition last week, though.
He said on his YouTube channel: "Something that f**** with my life is that I am a bit fatigued right now. There is a lot of hard sessions.
"I can definitely feel the fatigue in my legs, hamstrings and my hands. I wake up every morning with inflammation in my arms but luckily my knees are quite healthy.
"My body is very healthy guys don't get me wrong, I feel healthy in other aspects of my life. It is absolutely normal to feel sore, beaten up and feel extremely every tired every day which is normal.
"I know my body I know at this stage when it is injured compared to when it is extremely sore."
Bjornsson will be taking part in his fourth boxing match, whereas it will be Hall's first.
The Englishman has showcased some explosive punching power ahead of the showdown, though.
