Both men have been very public with their preparations for the fight and the latest video comes from Hall’s camp, where he injured his trainers.

Eddie Hall punched his trainer so hard he coughed up blood

Former World’s Strongest Man Eddie Hall showed off his punching power by making his trainer cough up blood as he prepared to take on rival Hafthor Bjornsson.

About nine minutes into the video, Hall lands on ‘Paddy’, wearing a bodysuit, which leads to the trainer coughing up blood

What’s crazy is that it’s not the first time the 32-year-old has injured one of his coaches while they were carrying a ‘body bag’.

According to his other trainer Lyndon, at the start of the video, Hall injured him in another session and broke his ribs while landing a shot, despite the fact that the body bag is supposed to prevent the wearer from suffer at all.

The injury came after five rounds of boxing, but it’s a wonder Paddy didn’t hurt his arm during the session as well.

Hall lands shots on the pads and every time he does the coach has to shake off the pain that rumbles through the pads and down his arms, there’s a lot of power behind every shot.

Bjornsson also set a marker in training for their 2021 fight, knocking out his sparring partner.

The bitter rivalry comes down to the two men who accuse each other of cheating. Bjornsson claimed he was ‘robbed’ when Hall won the world title in 2017, while Hall said his Icelandic rival cheated by breaking the deadlift world record.

Speaking about the charges against him, the Briton said: “Over the past three years, instead of answering questions about how I have defeated some of the greatest strongmen of all time, Hafthor has included, instead, people wondered if I really won it or not. .

“Hafthor Bjornsson and his entourage have tarnished my title and the reputation of umpire Colin Bryce for three years.

“Because he was the Mountain from Game of Thrones, a huge TV star, people listened to him and people believed him.”
