Devon Larratt was trained by Firas Zahabi for his exhibition boxing debut against Hafthor Bjornsson
Hafthor Bjornsson, who is known for playing the role of Gregor 'The Mountain' Clegane on the HBO series Game of Thrones, was scheduled to take on fellow strongman Eddie Hall in an exhibition boxing matchup last month. Bjornsson was the 2018 World's Strongest Man, while Hall achieved the accolade the year prior.
Hall suffered a torn bicep and had to withdraw from the bout. Devon Larratt stepped in a month before the encounter to face Bjornsson.
Larratt trained at fellow Canadian Firas Zahabi's Tristar Gym in Quebec to get himself ready for his boxing debut.
Despite that, Hafthor Bjornsson defeated Devon Larratt via TKO in the first of six three-minute rounds in Dubai, UAE, on September 18.
'No Limits' is set to return to arm-wrestling by putting his legacy hammer on the line against John Brzenk in December. The former retired Brzenk holds a 3-1 win-loss record over his upcoming opponent.
