Goodbye fans, I am leaving but promise to return back: Eddie Hall Announce

Eddie Hall didn’t hesitate when asked if he’d join Dana White’s controversial Power Slap promotion

Former world’s strongest man Eddie Hall made his feelings crystal clear regarding Dana White’s Power Slap as he revealed his hit-list.

Hall, who teamed up with Clash Royale, which has launched Card Evolutions for its most heavyweight characters, P.E.K.K.A. and Mega Knight, is looking for his next venture, having taken part in a bizarre 2 vs. 1 MMA fight under the World Freak Fight League banner.

The 36-year-old has many options and offers on the table ahead of returning to action.

One of his potential routes back into the combat sports world is Power Slap, which, of course, is fronted by UFC CEO White.

But Hall, who sported a ‘Team Mega Knight’ T-shirt ahead of UFC 306, isn’t prepared to risk his brain cells for a slap, calling White’s controversial promotion ‘f**king bonkers’.

However, if White proposed a ‘f**king extortionate’ offer, then the Brit would be tempted to trade slaps but insists he could ‘kill’ someone with his power and strength.

“You know what, I’ve had so many messages and calls. I think it’s f**king bonkers… in a bad way,” he told SPORTbible. “It’s nuts. I dare say I’d kill someone.”

On potentially signing for Power Slap, he said: “The money would have be f**king extortionate.

“That’s the thing, if you get knocked out by someone, you’ll always be the guy that got knocked out by a slap. It’s pretty brutal.”

Hall also revealed that he’s in talks to fight fellow strongman competitor Mariusz Pudzianowski but he has his eyes on a future showdown with Jake Paul.

“There’s a lot of craze with Jake Paul… so, be nice to get on that,” he added.

“I would like to get in the ring with Paul and smash him all over the place.

“He keeps saying he’s had no matches so far… and he’s fought fighters that are old, retired, so, let’s put him up against someone a bit more his own age.”

Paul returns to action on November 15 when he welcomes Mike Tyson back to the ring.

And Hall is worried for the ex-world heavyweight champion and believes a defeat to the YouTuber-turned-boxer would tarnish his legacy.

“Truth be told, I honestly don’t think it’s going to end well for Tyson if it’s a genuine fight. I just think having that youth on your side gives him that edge. He’s nearly 60.. at that age you can’t give hits, you can’t take hits as well,” he explained.

“I’m worried for Tyson. I don’t want him to get knocked out by someone like Jake Paul. It’d be very disappointing.”

Asked if a defeat to Jake Paul would affect Tyson’s legacy, he replied: “In a way, yes. I think when you’ve been such a good fighter as Tyson and then someone like Paul comes along – don’t get me wrong he’s a good fighter, but not of that calibre at all.

“And you’ve got a world champion going against a young pup. It’s kind of like when Muhammad Ali was walking around all shaking and jittery. It’s like some kid walking up and putting one on Ali when he was in his 70s and then putting your arms up in the air and say ‘I beat Muhammad Ali’… It’s kind of the same thing with Mike Tyson. I don’t want to see it happen.”

The latest Card Evolutions in Clash Royale bring a fresh level of intensity to the game, with P.E.K.K.A and Mega Knight evolving into even stronger characters. To join Eddie Hall and millions of players worldwide in the Clash Royale arena, download the game on iOS or Android here.
