Lambert Tyrer

Lambert Tyrer (840-) was an Anglo-Saxon warrior who lived in Doncaster, Yorkshire during the late 9th century AD. In the winter of early 876 AD, he challenged the Viking warrior Eivor to a fistfight during victory celebrations held by King Halfdan Whiteshirt, but Eivor easily beat him down and told him that his legend ended that day and that his name would be forgotten.
