Eddie Hall, the former World’s Strongest Man, has recently stirred up interest with his thoughts on the rising trend of slap fighting, describing it as “bonkers.” In a recent interview, he shared what it would take for him to step into the slap-fighting ring, emphasizing that it’s not just about the physicality but also the psychological aspects involved.

Hall noted that slap fighting demands a unique mental fortitude. “It’s one thing to lift heavy weights, but it’s another to stand there and take a hit,” he said. To prepare for such an extreme sport, he believes one must possess not only immense strength but also a high tolerance for pain. Hall explained that if he were to compete, he would need to undergo rigorous training to acclimate his body and mind to the intense impacts.

Additionally, he hinted that financial incentives could play a significant role. “If the prize money is right, I might consider it,” Hall remarked. He underscored that the financial backing and promotion of such events are critical for athletes who put their bodies on the line in unconventional sports like slap fighting.

Despite the allure of competition, Hall also expressed concerns about safety and the potential long-term effects on health. He wants to ensure that any involvement in such events wouldn’t jeopardize his well-being or that of other competitors. Ultimately, Hall’s consideration to participate hinges on a mix of challenge, compensation, and careful consideration of the risks involved. For now, he’s content to watch the spectacle unfold, leaving the “bonkers” action to the brave souls willing to step into the ring.
