EDDIE HALL immediately called for a rematch after his defeat to Hafthor Bjornsson – which left him with a horror eye cut. The former world’s strongest man world champion settled his near-five year feud with Bjornsson inside the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium.

And Hall, who was twice floored, fought from the first round onwards with a gruesome gash on his right eye.
But the brave Brit battled on until the final bell – and took ‘biggest man on the planet’ – nicknamed Thor – the whole six-round distance.
Gallant Hall, 34, said on Instagram afterwards: “You know what, I can take things as a man. It is what it is, that’s boxing.
“At the end of the day I’ve just fought the biggest man on the planet in a boxing match. I’d like to see anyone else get the balls and do that.

MANCHESTER UNITED legend Roy Keane accused former team-mate Gary Neville of “insulting” him during a heated debate.The pair were discussing which position is the easiest to play on the pitch during an episode of the Stick to Football podcast by SkyBet.Gary Neville’s comments about midfielders prompted a debate with Roy KeaneCredit: YOUTUBE The OverlapKeane claimed right-back is the easiest position to playCredit: YOUTUBE The OverlapEx-midfielder Keane argued: “Right-back is the easiest position to play,” prompting Arsenal legend Ian Wright to agree, saying: “Yeah, you can see everything, you can get up the pitch.”But Neville, who played as a right-back for both Man Utd and England, claimed: “I think that’s, to be fair, subjective. Because I think if you’re playing against a wide player that’s quick and has got some skill, right-back is not easy.”Pointing at Keane, the England star continued: “If you’re in midfield against players who can’t pass a ball…”However, Keane quickly chimed in, saying: “Put it this way, I went to right back, listen. I done a decent job for the team. I know we were strong. You couldn’t go into midfield and do what I was doing.”Read More on FootballWright went on to say: “Because it’s (playing right-back) easier to do! You’ve done brilliantly at right-back, but it was easier to do.”Neville then joked: “I think for 10 years my career has been ridiculed,” before staking his claim that either centre-forward or goalkeeper is the hardest position.But eventually, after a lengthy discussion during which Neville suggested midfielders don’t tend to do as much running as full-backs, Keane said: “You’re kind of insulting me. There’s a couple of insults coming my way.”Following his senior debut in 1992, Neville made over 600 appearances for Man Utd.Most read in FootballCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSMeanwhile, Keane made 476 appearances for the Red Devils during his time at Old Trafford.The pair also discussed how much Keane, who set United back £3.75million in 1993, would be worth in the current transfer market. ‘That didn’t feel right,’ says Gary Neville as Ian Wright opens up on FA Cup draw ‘fix’ claimsNeville argued: “What was Declan Rice? £100million.

MANCHESTER UNITED could be ready to launch a bid for Pau Torres with the defender reportedly interested in a move to England.The Spaniard is said to be available for around £52million in the summer due to a buyout clause in his Villarreal contract.
According to MEN, the 24-year-old is open to leaving LaLiga having come through the ranks at Estadio Ceramica.
However, United may be made to wait on Torres if he is called up to Spain’s Euro 2020 squad.
He reportedly wants to focus on a strong end to the season with Villarreal and a good tournament in the summer before deciding on his future.
The Yellow Submarine’s form could play a big role with the club sat seventh in its pursuit of European football.
It has previously been said that missing out on a Europa League spot could see Torres become available for less than his release clause.
Furthermore, new reports suggest a player-plus-cash offer could also tempt Villarreal into a deal.
The left-footed centre-back had played every minute of the league campaign until a muscle injury struck at the start of the month, ruling him out of Spain’s World Cup qualifiers.
Manchester City are tipped to compete for his signature if he desires a move to the Premier League, with Real Madrid and Barcelona also keen.
