‘His hands weigh a lot’ – Eddie Hall’s weight for World’s Strongest heavyweight fight leaked by opponent

EDDIE HALL's target weight for his return to MMA action has been revealed by opponent Mariusz Pudzianoswki.

The Brit bruiser will collide with his fellow former World's Strongest Man winner on April 26 in the co-main event of KSW 105 in Gliwice, Poland.

Despite being several years removed from their competitive strongman days, both men are still absolute man mountains.

Pudzianowski, however, is the trimmer of the two having started his mixed martial arts journey nearly 16 years ago.

And the 48-year-old has a sneaking suspicion over how much ”The Beast' will weigh for his pro-MMA debut.

The five-time World's Strongest Man winner said: “Eddie is not like some bar room brawler.

“He is a really strong guy who weighs 160kg [352lb] today and on April 26 I believe will be 150kg [330lbs].

“I know what it means because I come from the same source so for the first two minutes it will be an unstoppable steam engine.

“It’s only that I still have some of this strength and I have the experience before youth and some cunning.

“So if I do not let myself be caught by a cheap trick it should be fine. But let’s not underestimate it.

“He is a heavyweight and his hands weigh a lot.”;

Hall is still a relative newcomer to combat sports, with his sole fight being his 2022 exhibition boxing match against Hafthor Bjornsson.

And he admits the nerves are jangling ahead of his clash with Polish pounder Pudzianowski.

He said: “I think being scared is a very natural trait. Even going into my strongman, you’d be scared, you’d be nervous.

“If you’re not scared, you’re not nervous then something’s not right.

“Let’s face it, I’m going up against Mariusz Pudzianowski; 26 professional fights, five times World’s Strongest Man.

“He’s a fierce, fierce man and to get in the cage and exchange leather with a man whose had 26 fights? I’ve had one!

“So I’ve got a lot to be scared of and the four-minute rounds has been a tough thing for me to accept as well.

“He’s got a lot of advantages but I’ve said ‘sod it’, why not let him have four minute rounds? Let’s just get this done.”;
