Eddie Hall wants to send a message to the Fury family in his upcoming boxing match.
On June 13, Hall will face Tommy Fury in a stunning mismatch at the AO Arena in Manchester, England.
Hall steamrolled through Mariusz Pudzianowski in his viral MMA debut last year that pitted two former World’s Strongest Man winners against each other.
In a recent video, ‘The Beast’ explained how this fight led to a rivalry developing between him and the Furys to set up his next bout.
The likes of Darren Till have clashed with Tommy Fury and his family when finding out what fighting one of them comes with.
This won’t come as a surprise to Eddie Hall, who recently explained that his feud with the Furys is how this exhibition boxing match came about in the first place.
The former strongman said that his attempts to get an MMA fight with Tyson Fury after seeing clips of the heavyweight training didn’t sit well with John Fury, who later suggested that he should fight Tommy instead.
“Things got a little bit heated,” Hall recapped via his YouTube channel. “You’re all full of s—. You’re just all full of f—— talk. You all walk around like hard men like you’re gonna beat this guy down, beat that guy down, you’ll fight anyone, you’re fighting men. There’s not a lot of action, especially from Jon.”
Hall is well prepared for going to war with his next opponent’s family, and he doesn’t want the rivalry to end after he steps inside the ring on June 13.
In fact, he’s hoping to make Tommy’s father regret his decision and allow him to take a step closer to tempting the ‘Gypsy King’ to enter a cage with him.
“I’d like to shut your dad up and put you in your place and then maybe I’ll get the Tyson Fury MMA fight,” Hall added. “This is not a friendly encounter. I want to go in there and prove a point.”
