In a strange way, the Hulk and Thor fight Marvel has been teasing since the first full Ragnarok trailer is an excellent comparison for the Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor boxing match millions watched last night.
Fingers crossed the battle between Thor and Hulk turns out to be a weird and mesmerizing good time too.
Thankfully, the actual fight, by most people’s estimations, was way more entertaining than expected.
On paper, it was a sideshow, a mixed martial artist with unstoppable charisma in the prime of his career switching disciplines to fight a much smaller and much older undefeated boxer at his game.
