Member 2775, 6927 posts | LessThanLuke said: Not sure. Personally I'd try and put the record out of sight but no one's close to him so I guess motivation would be hard? He was never going to do more as twitch follower target was too high to hit, just said it to get more followers (smart move). Would only pull more for good money I'd assume. | ||

If Thor can learn even a half decent jab he should win easily. Of course if one has better cardio than the other that could make a big difference too depending on how many rounds they do etc | ||

Member 6297, 99 posts | This is going to look terrible.. as it always is when top competitors from other sports move over to fighting. Look at any MMA or boxing example, always turns into what looks like a slap fest. On top of that neither of them will have any cardio or much technique... it is a shame as it is going to look stupid, despite them being top strongman competitors. | ||

I have no interest watching I will wait for Fury v Aj | ||

Just look at Pudz.. he trained for a lot longer than these guys and had some experience in martial arts before transitioning to MMA.. and yet when faced with any real pro fighters he looked ridiculous. | ||

 I eat a lot of meat Member 5124, 3014 posts SQ 245, BP 130, DL 275650.0 kgs @ 105kgs UnEq | Well done Thor. I’d say he didn’t have much more in the tank though, but they’d irrelevant. He pulled 501. I’m quite indifferent about though due to all the hype and BS that’s come with it. What happened with all the other records? Any more WR’s set? | ||

I have seen thor grind out some awesome deadlifts Once in Europe's he fought so hard to finish 450 Also few years ago he done something similar with heavy weight I think if he had of went for 510 he would of hitched it Anyway, by far the most Impressive deadlift ever imo, as he walked off strong after | ||

However, it’s still incredible. Put all the BS aside, Ed’s 500 was deemed impossible and the gap between the then current WR and 500 was huge. Not many thought it was possible, but it happened. I’m kind of upset Thor didn’t lift more though. As for the fight. Absolute horse s**t. | ||

I find it a cleaner lift and he didn't near die from it Might not have the shock value, but the best deadlift ever He's a monster When he pulls heavier in a comp, he will continue you the rest of the comp as normal So impressed with Thor True Beast | ||
