In a groundbreaking feat of strength, former World’s Strongest Man Eddie Hall has shattered the record for the world’s hardest punch, previously held by UFC star Alex Pereira. Hall, known for his record-breaking deadlifts and colossal strength, set a new benchmark with a punch that left fans and experts in awe.
Hall’s achievement was revealed in a recent interview, where he reflected on his journey to breaking the record. “I came along and smashed it,” Hall said with his characteristic confidence. The British strongman was referring to his record-breaking punch, which measured an astonishing 129,161 units of force—surpassing Pereira’s previous record of 127,000 units set in 2021.
The punch was delivered during a special event where Hall used state-of-the-art equipment to measure the force of his blow. Experts believe the combination of Hall’s raw power, muscle mass, and technique contributed to the record-breaking strike. As a strongman, Hall has long been known for his immense strength, but this particular feat showcased the raw power behind his fists, which had been honed through years of rigorous training.
While Alex Pereira, a former UFC middleweight champion and knockout artist, was known for his devastating punches, Hall’s feat has reignited the debate over which athlete truly possesses the hardest punch. However, Hall was quick to acknowledge Pereira’s skill, stating that both men are elite athletes in their own right.
In addition to his impressive strength feats, Hall’s punch record adds another milestone to his already legendary career. Fans are now eagerly awaiting what other records the powerhouse might set next, as he continues to redefine what’s possible in the world of strength sports.
For now, Eddie Hall stands as the undisputed king of the hardest punch—a title that he’s proud to have claimed.
