EDDIE HALL broke Alex Pereira and Francis Ngannou’s records for the hardest punch in the world.
The British strongman has put the UFC star and the man who left Tyson Fury in the shadows with his terrifying power.

The UFC’s Performance Institute in Las Vegas has a high-tech machine – known as the ‘Power Cube’ – that measures the force of a blow in units.
It calculates a score based on several factors, including strength and speed.
And the world record was previously held by Ngannou, the UFC fighter-turned-boxer who narrowly lost to Fury earlier this year, who recorded a score of 129,161 units in 2017.
At the time, UFC president Dana White compared it to being hit with the same force as a move Ford Escort or 12-pound sledgehammer.
Next up, light heavyweight champion Pereira broke the record of 191,796.
But now Hall, the former strongest man in the world, has blasted them both by achieving a stunning score of 208.901.
Hall is training after being selected for an impressive four-man MMA tournament in Qatar.
He was due to face Mitchell Hooper or Brian Shaw in February – until negotiations suddenly broke down.

Hall, 36, switched to boxing in 2022 but was defeated in a super heavyweight exhibition against rival Hafthor Bjornsson, 35.
But he began training with interim UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall, 31, for his MMA debut and revealed he weighed in at 25 kilos.
Negotiations for an MMA fight continue as Hall calls up strongman duo Hooper and Shaw, as well as 6ft 4in actor Martyn Ford.
