Tyson Fury was met with his match when he took a photo of himself with Game of Thrones giant Hafthor Brjornsson
Both 6ft 9in tall, the pair posed topless. Bjornsson – known as ‘Thor’ – visited Fury at one of his evening with tour nights.
He shared the following Instagram post: "Peak performance male muscular body shape vs. me... All jokes aside, it was an honor meeting @gypsyking101 tonight to attend one of his shows!"
"I look forward to hearing more from the champ in the near future."
Fury, 33 years old, weighed 19st 11lb in his final fight. He won an 11th-round knockout victory over Deontay Wilder (36).
Amazingly, Bjornsson weighed 32 STONE during his strongman days.
However, the super-heavyweight has lost nine stone since he switched to boxing and is now down to 23 stone.

Since then, they have lost weight and gotten gloves in preparation for what is being called "the heaviest ever boxing match".
In preparation for next year's grudge match against Hall, Bjornsson had three exhibition bouts of tune-up.
They were against Steven Ward, an Irish cruiserweight, 31; Simon Vallily (36); and Larratt (46).
And Bjornsson is sure to have picked up some tips from unbeaten Fury, who is one of his favourite fighters.
He sparred with Martin Bakole (28-year-old heavyweight contender), who shares the same trainer, Billy Nelson.
Bjornsson posted: Four rounds with big @martin_bakole_ today and then four rounds on the bag!
"I can remember doing 2 rounds of Martin in my last training camp in Dubai. It was very tiring for me. Now, my improvements are evident.
"I can go through four and feel quite good afterwards. It is amazing how different it is to help someone at his level than someone who is less experienced.
"I love the challenges that boxing has presented me, and I feel absolutely amazing so far!"
"Can't wait to hear the date announced by the promoters so I can crush Eddie!"
Let's put pressure on @coresportsworld .... Let's agree on a date and venue as soon as possible so that the fans can witness this fight!
