And Wilson – a retired Olympic gymnast – was on hand to feel the full force of the Brit’s power.

Hall, who stands 6ft 3in and 25 STONE, completely dwarfed the 5ft 6in, 9st 4lb, ex-athlete.

Wilson attempted a punch of his own but it has no effect whatsoever on the super-heavyweight.

Hall, 34, said: “The thing is, mate, I train – with my training, I’ll hang on a bar and my training partner will smash me in the gut.

“Obviously, as you can see, I’ve also got a massive wall of thick muscle there.”

Later on, Hall lands a single jab to Wilson, who is wearing a body belt – but it still sent him flying in the brilliant 2021 clip.

Wilson, 26, said: “My brain hit the back of my head.”

Hall then joked: “I think I might have actually knocked him out…”

But Wilson rather unconvincing replied: “I’m alright, yeah.”

Hall and ‘Thor’ Bjornsson squared off in a fight billed the ‘heaviest boxing match in history’.

Game of Thrones star Bjornsson, 33, dominated the contest and ran out a clear winner.

Boxing’s fundamental skills are:

  • Punching techniques
  • Guarding techniques
  • Footwork
  • Stance
  • Movement of the body
  • Defense
  • Combination
  • Rotation
  • Spare parts

Punching Techniques

There are seven types: Left Hook (right hook), Right Hook (uppercut), Cross (cross), Straight, Overhand, Underhand. Each punch is different. Some punches require more strength than others. For example, an uppercut is a powerful punch. A straight punch, on the other hand requires less power and is quicker than other punches.

There are also different combinations. These are combinations made up of several punches that can be used together to achieve one goal. A combination may have multiple parts. A left hook followed with a right-cross will cause injury to the opponent’s jaw.

Guard Techniques

A boxer protects himself by using his body. He uses his arms, legs, elbows, knees, knees, and feet to do this.

Legs

Boxers should use their legs to defend against kicks. After receiving a kick, he will raise his leg and move away from the attacker. If the attacker is coming from the front, he will bend at the knees to avoid getting kicked on either side. But if the attack comes in the back, he will stand straight and block the kick using his foot.

Elbows

Because they cause great pain, elbow strikes are extremely effective. You can deliver an elbow strike directly or indirectly. Directly means that you hit your opponent with your forearm while indirectly means that you hit him with another part of your arm.

Hands

Boxers use both their hands and arms to prevent incoming blows. To do so, they raise their fists above their head and move them towards the direction of the attack. They then touch the attackers fist.

Knees

A boxer should bend his knees in order to absorb any blows to his stomach, abdomen, chest or stomach. A lot of boxers use knee strikes to defend themselves.

Feet

A boxer should not be afraid to respond to an attack. This way, he can gain distance between himself and his opponent. Boxers should also keep their balance when counter-attacking.

Stances

A boxer must have a stance in order to be effective at boxing. The way he defends himself will be determined by his stance. It defines where he faces his opponent and how he positions his body. There are many stances available to boxers. These are some of our most favorite:

  • Low stance
  • High stance
  • Southpaw stance
  • Western stance

Moving your body

In order to win a fight, a boxer must move around his opponent. This requires changing your position, speed, and rhythm.

Rotation

To increase his punching power, a boxer rotates when he throws a punch. Different types of punches require different speeds for the rotation.

Combinations

The timing of each individual punch affects the effectiveness or failure of a combination. A combination that works well starts with strong punches and ends with weak ones is a winning combination.

Spare parts

Sparring, a boxing practice session, is designed to improve your boxing skills. A sparring session is where a boxer trains both his mind and his body. In conclusion, the purpose of sparring is to learn how to fight and not get hurt.
