This live blog provides coverage of the highly anticipated “World`s Strongest Fight” taking place at KSW 105. The event features a compelling matchup between strongman titans Eddie Hall and Mariusz Pudzianowski, held on Saturday at the PreZero Arena in Gliwice, Poland.
Eddie Hall, the 2017 World`s Strongest Man champion, is renowned for being the first person to achieve a 500 kg deadlift. He retired from professional strongman competition in 2018 and subsequently explored various ventures, including combat sports. His history in this realm includes a boxing match against fellow strongman Hafthor Bjornsson in 2022, which he lost by unanimous decision. More recently, in 2024, Hall made an unusual MMA debut, facing two opponents simultaneously in a bout that generated significant highlights and set the stage for this contest against Pudzianowski.
Mariusz Pudzianowski is widely regarded as one of the foremost strongmen in history, boasting five World`s Strongest Man titles among numerous other strongman accomplishments. Pudzianowski transitioned his athletic career to mixed martial arts in 2009. Contrary to initial speculation that his foray into the sport might be brief, he has instead become a central figure for the KSW promotion over nearly 15 years, participating in 26 professional fights. This extensive fighting background gives Pudzianowski a considerable experience advantage over Hall in their upcoming bout.
