![]() ![]() Believe me, I have been a die-hard fan for 30 years now. ![]() That started to change by the mid 90's and even more so when Colin Bryce began commentating the events starting in the early 2000's (adding up to 4" to some strongmen's heights). Hafthor Bjornsson won a boxing fight for the very first time after defeating arm-wrestling great Devon. Guys in the 70's and 80's were always listed at their real heights (Bill Kazmaier at 6'2.5" in his prime and Geoff Capes at 6'5.5" in his prime). Hafthor Bjornsson seals first boxing win after beating Devon Larratt. Mariusz Pudzianowski was a legit 5'11", not 6'1", Svend Karlsen who used to get billed at 6'2" and even 6'3" at times is a legit 5'11"-6'0" guy (slightly edged out Mariusz). Terry Hollands who is billed at 6'6" and even 6'7" at times is only 6'3"-6'4" in reality. Eddie Hall is shorter than 6'0"-6'1" Laurence Shahlei (who is at least 2" shorter than 6'3" Zydrunas Zavickas who was once listed at 6'2). None of the guys are as tall as they are listed (billed). He has a very Vince McMahon type of personality and business mindset to make already big men bigger than life itself. The promoter at World's Strongest Man and Giants Live (Colin Bryce) always inflated and still does inflate the strongmen's heights. Thor at 6'7.5" puts Brian Shaw at 6'6" (probably 6'7.5" in basketball shoes and he rounded/rounds to 6'8"). This is complete guide to the entire event, including how to watch the stream online. I remember watching an interview with Thor from a few years ago where he was asked his height and he said that he's only 6'7.5" in reality even though I've been called 6'8", 6'9" and even 6'10" at times. The boxing match between Hafthor Bjornsson and Devon Larratt will headline Fight Night 3 in Dubai, on Saturday, September 18th. ![]()
