- Eddie Hall wins MMA debut, bizarre bout ends with brutal knockout
- This strongman competed in handicap bouts in the World Freak Fight League.
- Hall went up against TikTok influencers Jamil and Jamel Nefaty at the Blackburn event.
Eddie Hall's mixed martial arts debut ended in chaos with the British strongman scoring a knockout victory in a bizarre bout on Friday night.
The former World's Strongest Man winner competed in a unique two-on-one handicap bout in his first mixed martial arts bout at the World Freak Fight League event at King George Hall in Blackburn.
Hall faced off against TikTok superstars Jamil Neferty and Jamel Neferty (also known as the Neferty Brothers) and dominated both opponents.
The Polish duo went into the bout weighing a combined 20.7 stone, with Hall holding a commanding lead of 26.2 stone.
That advantage ultimately paid off, as Hall won with a brutal knockout over his opponent in a chaotic third round.
The first two rounds were somewhat cautious, with the brothers circling the larger man without fighting.
Hall yelled at the pair to “just do something,” but did so again in the second round, eliciting boos from the frustrated crowd.
But chaos ensued in the third round, when Hall went for the weak spots and obliterated both social media stars.
First, he suplexed one of the brothers to the floor while the other was being powerbombed by “The Beast.”
As the Nefertie brothers got up from the powerbomb, they were hit with a right hook from Hall and knocked unconscious.
But the fight wasn't over there. The other brother also took a beating from Hall's punches, and it finally ended when Hall took his opponent down with a series of strikes on the ground.
The champion strongman who beat two opponents with millions of followers on social platforms was then declared the winner.
This won't be the 36-year-old's first time competing in combat sports, having already stepped onto the boxing stage in 2022 with a loss to Hafthor Bjornsson.
Not only is Hall a multiple strongman champion, he's also built a celebrity career on his YouTube channel, where he posts videos focused on food challenges, fitness and weight training.
