Strongman Eddie Hall Calls for MMA Fight Against 5x World’s Strongest Man Mariusz Pudzianowski
Fresh off an impressive 2-on-1 victory against the Neffati brothers, strongman Eddie Hall is already eyeing his next challenge – a potential MMA showdown with Mariusz Pudzianowski, the 5-time World’s Strongest Man champion.
In his post-fight interview, Hall revealed that while he’s interested in a regular 1-on-1 matchup against someone of his stature, he’s particularly intrigued by the prospect of facing Pudzianowski, who has also been active in the MMA scene for over 15 years.
“I think someone like Mariusz Pudzianowski would be a great opponent,” said Hall. “He has 20 years of experience in the game, he’s still a big guy and still very strong. There’s no denying it, Mariusz is very hard. But I think the fans want to see the World’s Strongest Man vs World’s Strongest Man.”
Hall also revealed that Pudzianowski has been actively reaching out, expressing his own desire to step into the ring against the former World’s Strongest Man champion. “Mariusz is always in my inbox, sending me fighting emojis,” Hall noted, suggesting that the wheels are already in motion for a potential showdown.
While Hall’s MMA experience is limited, with no official 1-on-1 fights to his name, Pudzianowski boasts a formidable 17-8 professional record, primarily secured through knockouts. In terms of their physical attributes, Hall holds a slight size advantage, weighing in at 367 pounds and standing 6’3″, compared to Pudzianowski’s 255.7 pounds and 6’1″ frame.
Regardless of the outcome, a clash between these two strongman legends is sure to captivate the attention of fans worldwide, as they seek to determine who is the true master of strength and power. With both men seemingly eager to make this fight happen, it remains to be seen if the right deal can be struck to bring this highly anticipated matchup to fruition.
