Tyson Fury to take on Hafthor Bjornsson in an exhibition match

The British fighter retired from the sport after his homecoming victory against Dillian Whyte on April 23rd, 2022. Since then, Fury has exchanged fighting words with Icelandic strongman winner Hafthor Bjornsson. Now, the duo has called out each other for a fight.

Recently, Tyson Fury claimed that an exhibition fight against Bjornsson is on the table somewhere around November. Fury boldly claimed that he wants to knock out ‘Thor’ in front of a massive audience in London.

He stated, “It’d be great to get in there in front of 70,000 fans and show him what boxing is all about. Make him miss and knock him out.” The fireworks between the two giants have set out as they seem to relish the opportunity to exchange blows in the ring.

What happened the last time Hafthor Bjornsson stepped inside the ring?

Bjornsson’s potential fight against Tyson Fury won’t be his first encounter inside the squared circle. Earlier this year, the Game of Thrones star went toe to toe against fellow strongman winner, Eddie Hall. Both the strongmen put on an incredible show with six rounds of an exciting brawl.
