Bodybuilders are not limited to proving their worth on stage. They are subjected to constant criticism, sometimes necessary, while sometimes not. There have been multiple instances when bodybuilders have handled the criticism personally by responding to the haters. One such moment of blunt reply was seen by the world’s strongest man Eddie Hall

The strongman posted a video of him watching Khan Baba, also known as Pakistan’s Hulk, challenging his achievements and records. Arbab Khizer Hayat, a.k.a, Khan Baba commented on Hall’s deadlift record of lifting 500kg (1102 lbs) in weight. “I am lifting 600 kg as soon as possible. If I didn’t pick 600kg I’ll never call myself the strongest man in the world”, says Hayat. Let’s take a look at how the former deadlift record holder clapped back at his critic.

After lifting the weight, the British bodybuilder went one step further. Hall challenged Khan Baba to a match of slaps between them. Hall said, “I want you to fly to England and me and you will have a slap fight.” 

The call-out came as a response to Baba mocking Hall for getting knocked in his fights with other bodybuilders. The strongman further mentioned that he would sponsor the whole trip for Baba. Khan Baba, however, was not one to stay quiet. He commented on the video, saying “We are onnnnn. There will be only one world strongest man.”
