EDDIE HALL is'scared of UFC great Khabib Numagomedov, but he is sure he will knock out' fellow strongman Hafthor Bjornsson at the boxing ring.
Hall, the former world's Strongest Man, bravely poses with Khabib, now retired.
Eddie Hall's opponent Hafthor Bor Bjornsson is a former boxer who has lost several stone in his transformation.
And alongside that photo on Instagram 'The Beast' wrote: "Two things scare me in life, my dads belt and @khabib_nurmagomedov."
Hall is fighting back from the bicep surgery which delayed his fight against 'The Mountain' Bjornsson. He will be fighting again next year.
He fears Russian Khabib but he is more afraid of Icelander Bjornsson, who he believes will be shaking when they meet.
Hall said to Luke Fullbrook, a strongman, in a YouTube interview that he was very confident. You're aware of how serious I take everything.
"I'm going to let my fists speak for me. He can say and do what he likes... It doesn't matter to me that he gets knocked out.
"I haven’t even started the mental games with Thor, and he’s already calling me bully.
He should get control of his life, because it's only going to get worse."
The Mountain is convinced that his boxing abilities are snowballing after three exhibition bouts.
He even sparred with Conor McGregor, as he prepares for Hall.
