He would have won much faster if it weren't just a friendly fight.

>timing over speed
>precision over power

Is it just me or was there some awkward sexual tension throughout that whole thing

eddie hall knows how to box, thor does not.

just you

That is literally just you lol.

>sparring match

You have to realize that Hafthor is like wookie fucking strong. If he got you in any sort of hold he could pretty much just strangle the life out of you. His comp weight is like 430+lbs so it's not like you're just going to be able to shrug him off. If you actually watch him compete, he isn't some easily winded blob, either. He's deceptively fast for weighing roughly as much as what would be considered a hefty wild silverback gorilla.

If he trained to fight the way Conor does, he'd wreck anyone in lower weight classes based on size and reach alone.

that's why mariusz stayed at strongman size to compete in mma right?

>That video
>Hafthor is just walking around scared of punching Connor because if he does he would actually kill him
>Hafthor grabs Connor
>Lets him go out of nowhere because he can't do anything without killing Connor

It was just Hafthor walking around lmao

bro...
get help.

Dude mariusz is tiny compared to Thor. Yes a trained fighter has an advantage but Jesus.

>6'1"
>100+lbs lighter
Not entirely comparable. Mariusz was fighting people of similar size so his strongman background only meant so much. I'm not sure there are other people big enough to compete against Hafthor, he's just the complete combo of height/weight.

For comparison between the two it's a size difference of a 6'0" normal to a 5'4" manlet. The reach alone would be one of Hafthor's greatest weapons.

I don't think he could even cut down to meet the 265lb weight requirement, either. And he'd fucking shrek all the super heavyweights because he's actually pretty fucking cut/conditioned at his size.

That's why there's weight classes in fighting sports. To keep the heavier, stronger guys safe.

Conor weighs like 150lbs. Hafthor could probably just bearhug him to death.

Think you might have the gay m8

I've seen this video many times and I'm not 100% sure who would actually win. Obviously Björnsson has a massive reach and strength advantage, but neither of the men are utilizing their full repertoire of skills. There are plenty of times where McGregor is in striking distance of Björnsson's chin, and he might have been able to score a knockout if this had been a real MMA fight, since he's such a good boxer.

On the other hand, the way Björnsson can shoot out his hand and grab McGregor by the back of the neck like your pissed dad when you were a kid is pretty impressive. In a MMA fight, He might just completely shrug off McGregor's punches, and then just body slam him like a doll. Though I'm not sure how hard Björnsson actually hits. He lands a pretty serious body shot on 1:20 that McGregor seems to just walk off. You'd think any hit from such a fucking beast would drop McGregor instantly, but it didn't.

In a real fight, the big guy would just grab a hold of the smaller guy and sit on top of him until he pounded his head into pieces.

It's like watching a Saint Bernard play with a chihuahua.

this

Even in the video you can see his hands are snapping out to full extension as fast as the lil boi.

All he has to do is grab on to one part of your body with that big meaty fucking gorilla hand and you're shit out of luck. Hes 430+lbs and hes actively rooting his feet into the ground so you aren't going to move him. Once he yanks you onto the floor and puts his knee on your chest all he has to do is attempt to stand up and you'll die on accident.

watch how hard mcgregor tries to pull out of that clinch
hes like, full on running in the other direction after thor stops, his whole body is tilted away and thor's arms dont budge one centimeter

the only reason conor isn't fucking dead right now is because thor was playing games

also note just after when conor slides out, thors arms also dont move because he wasn't squeezing at all, he just locked is arms at around the diameter of conor and made no effort to sqeeze the life out of him

When the viper beat the mountain

this.
gregor would probably be really open due to no experience and get knocked out with a punch to the chin. your size doesnt matter if you get hit there.

if gregor was trained he would win obviously.

>your size doesnt matter if you get hit there.

people can also get knocked in the chin and not get knocked out, because they're just fucking strong like that.

if you punch a gorilla in the chin as hard as you can you're just going to hurt your chin, you're not going to drop a fucking silverback with your 'mean left hook'
you know why? because they're fucking strong
when you hit them, their neck and jaw muscles are all already tensed because they're in a fight, and your baby hand is nowhere near enough force to jostle any microscopic part of the ecosystem keeping them conscious, so they shrug it off, and then grab you by the neck and shove you onto the ground, and beat you into a paste because they weigh as much as you plus your dad put together, and they're ten times as strong

This user has it. We can't really know who'd win because this was a playful sparring session. None of them took it seriously.

If this had been a real fight, I think space would've be a big factor. MGoober could easily just tire out the Mountain if he just danced around him long enough.

youtube.com/watch?v=23LR6pWEpKU
Notice how short it took for Bjornsson to get tired. And notice how slow and telegraphic his punches are. Regardless of strength, McGoober could easily evade those.

On the other hand, if they were in some place like an elevator, the Mountain would win easy.

didn't he only win because he used poison though.

Nah man, he wounded The Mountain but then he got grabbed and his head got squeezed in. Then The Mountain died several days later 'cause of the poison.

thats exactly what the other dude said?

are you high?

No, it's not.

The mountain didn't lose the fight because of poison, he got his hamstring/achilles tendon cut and then got stabbed in the chest with a spear.

In fact he didn't lose the fight at all, that's why Tyrion gets sentenced to death. The poison only really messes him up after the fight.

Conor couldn't even knock out Diaz despite being a better boxer. No way he has the power to knock out The Mountain.

No, the other guy suggested that he lost due to poison. He "lost" because he got his ass kicked in the fight. And then he really won because the Viper acted like a cocky fucker and let his guard down. There was incidentally poison involved.

In high school science
Force=mass×acceleration
And the more mass you have the more energy required to accelerate, so the most efficient way to increase force is to increase speed independantly to mass.

Keep lean and mean. Weight is no substitute for speed

>got stabbed in the chest with a spear
how exactly did he manage to stab him trough chain mail and plate armour? The achilles tendon makes sense atleast, because he didn't wear armour there, but the chest part was bullshit (that's also why they didn't show it properly on the show). I hope the books are better written

Welcome to Veeky Forums. You'll fit right in.

It's hard to judge how this would pan out due to both men having to fight within parameters of rules that have been laid out.

In reality, Mcgregor laying rapid punches and wearing the Thor down is one aspect, however as said by other anons, if Thor grabs even a limb of you, you're finished.

If it was a balls out scrap, i'd give it to Thor based on the numbers game. I've no idea what fighting training he's done, but even without any he only has to get lucky once. Mcgregor has to be precise every single time.

I don't know why are you retards even talking about MUH ACCURACY and all that shit, do you think Mcgregors chicken punches would even tickle Thors belly or any other limb hahah

You don't get much knock out resistance with mass. A manlet's head is still pretty much the same as the mountain's. All that helps is genetics and neck muscles.
Diaz didn't get knocked out not for the lack of trying, it's because he's a freak.
That being said, Gregor would still win easily.

This would have ended at 0:16 if it wasn't friendly sparring

You've obviously never been punched by someone who knows how to do it properly. Look at Muay thai fighters with their kicks. The dudes are 60kg wet through, yet a kick from one of them will floor people or at the least hurt someone as large as Thor.

IF mcgregor got close enough to punch his head and jaw then it would certainly put things in his favour. The issue there is getting close enough however, i'd reckon Thor could catch and crush him.

>weight classes don't exist for a reason in mma

>mastered the block chain

>if you punch a gorilla in the chin as hard as you can you're just going to hurt your chin

yeah, I seen it

He lost a lot of weight once he got into MMA.

At 1:20 Mountain could have easily thrown McGregor on his head and literally kill him if that was a serious fight.

Power > speed

>Force=mass×acceleration
that isn't wrong, but isn't really factoring in the non linear behavior of your muscles, and the fact that you carry with you non-muscle weight.
you can be a great sprinter looking like Bolt, or like a Football player.
Either way you need to train for explosive strength + not be fat.

Timing is essential in fight. If you can read your opponents movement, you know when to strike. And I'm not talking about some anime prediction-jutsu bullshit, just simply knowing human anatomy, where the motion comes from and how to react to it.

if your acceleration remains the same and you have more mass that yields greater force too though

He tries to fight after the rules of this Sport, in every real street fight he would just grab him, kick him in the balls and McGregor would be impotent forever.

lol thor is a fat balding roider
who cares? a 5'2" chink with a pistol would kill the gay bitch LOL

And Mcgregor could have actually hit him at any time. In the face especially

MemeGreggor literally would have died at 18 seconds.

How the fuck did you come to the stupid ass conclusion that he somehow came out on top in this video?

this
it literally looks like a big papa bear playfully wrestling with his little cub who is giving it all he's got
guy puts his hands up multiple times to let him freely strike him, and when he grabs mcgregor he doesn't do anything and just lets him go while smiling

He could much more easily have hit McGregor than vice versa. He's clearly scared to throw a punch because it's hard for him to hit body height when his arms are naturally above the level of Conor's head.

it's not about speed>power in this case

it's about fighting experience>power

if that huge guy could fight really well the manlet wouldn't stand a chance against him

>guns LOL

literally retarded inbred tier

this.
whoever thinks Thor couldn't just cave McMemes eyes in like he did with Oberyn Martell is a retard.

kek

welp, good to see that HGH/slin gut coming right along.
>disgust.jpg

and for all you no contact fags ITT, a real fight wouldn't involve dance moves. McHaggis would climb him like a monkey climbs a cocoanut tree and choke him out in 0:54 or less. no amount of size makes up for lack of skill, the Gracies proved that in 1992

Pipe bomb>Speed>Power

>McMeme climbs him
>he throws himself on the ground, McMeme unter him
>McMeme is dead
