'The Mountain' From 'Game Of Thrones' Had Shed A Ton Of Weight For Boxing Match

Jayne Kamin-Oncea-USA TODAY Sports

Hafthor Bjornsson, who starred as "The Mountain" on "Game Of Thrones," has transformed his body since retiring from strongman competition in 2019. He's now moving to the boxing world, and the results are impressive...

quote:
Just two days out from his big celeb tilt with arm-wrestling legend Devon Larratt, Bjornsson -- a 3x Arnold Classic and 2018 World's Strongest Man winner -- showed off all the progress he's made with his physique, revealing chiseled abs, pecs and arms.

6'9" Bjornsson told Muscle And Health earlier this month he's down to about 328 pounds -- roughly 120 pounds under the 450-or-so pounds that he used to tip the scales at when he was lifting competitively.

It's all been an effort to dominate in the ring ... with Bjornsson initially setting out to fight fellow strong man Eddie Hall -- his heated rival -- this weekend.

That's what I'd look like if I shaved my chest.

I’ve seen some of his fights…I don’t think he can win if he can’t pop Hall’s head like a pimple

Eh. Now he just looks like the Rock. Looked a lot more intimidating with the weight.

X123F45•31 months

He's 100lbs heavier. The rock is probably 100lbs heavier than kevin hart.

Obtuse1•31 months

Not really sure a 6'9" currently 340lb man needs to worry about being intimidating in person to essentially all of the human population. He has 4" and 80 pounds on the Rock not exactly and apples to apples comparison.

I'm a little surprised he doesn't make any WWE appearances

I'll whip his candy arse.

It’s all about his chin. How good is it?But if he gets hold of you or lands one or two it’s trouble.

HoustonGumbeauxGuy•31 months

Good luck reaching his chin. He can simply reach his arms out and choke you to death in 10 seconds. With hands like that around your neck and your belly able to breathe, the last thing on your mind will be curiosity around the softness of his chin
