Eddie Hall and Tommy Fury Break Into Bodybuilding-Style Posedown, Strongman Legend Holds 108-Pound Weight Advantage<\/h2>\n

Eddie Hall<\/a> and Tommy Fury broke into a bodybuilding-style posedown<\/strong> during the official weigh-in<\/a> for Saturday\u2019s Misfits Boxing showdown between the strongman and boxer.<\/p>\n

Before the scales became the focus, Fury, known for his tremendous work in the gym<\/a>, briefly stole the show during an impromptu posedown with the former World\u2019s Strongest Man<\/a>. The undefeated boxer hit a surprisingly impressive lat spread<\/a> while standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Hall, drawing laughs and reactions from the crowd as both men flexed for the cameras.<\/p>\n

The bout is expected to be contested over six two-minute rounds with both men wearing 14-ounce gloves.<\/p>\n
