BoztheMadman Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 (edited) This looks like a very exciting fight on paper. Two undefeated fighters, both known as pressure fighters that can box, but Galahad can punch too. At least, harder than Warrington. They are almost even in age, Galahad one year older. How do you see this going? Edited June 16, 2019 by LondonRingRules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undefeated Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Re: Warrington vs Galahad So, I picked against Warrington vs his last two opponents and wound up with egg on my face both times. This his 3rd world title fight will be the first time that I am picking Warrington to win. If (when) Warrington does to PED Galahad what he did to Selby and Frampton, I can't see a different outcome. I also expect the big stage to get to Galahad too and so I predict a fairly comfortable win for Warrington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially the last guy. This is different, here he's a clear favorite, also because he's fighting a less profiled fighter. But can Galahad surprise us?? I haven't seen lot of him tbh, that's why I'm asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only seen him knocking over cans on Sky Sports Fight Night undercards' in 6 & 8 rounders. He hasn't fought anyone that will allow us to form any kind of opinion on how he will cope at this level, most or at least half of his fights have been in the Steel City too, there's zero reason to be picking him against Warrington and in Leeds at that!

WelshDevilRob Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Re: Warrington vs Galahad It smells like a Frank Warren fight - no publicity. Warren is an embarrassment - never sells a venue out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ton Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Re: Warrington vs Galahad Also picking Warrington here. His relentless marauding style will likely be too much for the pretty untested Galahad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ton Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Re: Warrington vs Galahad The biggest question is how much more arrogance this win will give him and make him become an even bigger gobshite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No publicity? Theres been plenty of press releases Rob sent out. I've also been sent a promo video and seen advertisements on TV and they remind you about the fight during other sporting shows 3/4 times a show. They even tell you about the fight during the football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_budweiser Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Re: Warrington vs Galahad I think Warrington will have to much for Galahad. Warrington has really grown as a fighter and came into his own with wins against Selby and Frampton. I want him to win this fight and hopefully a fight between him and Santa Cruz takes place.

I think by now people have realized Warrington is world class. Before that I think too many underestimated him and thought he was just a strong, durable, aggressive guy but not of that caliber. He beat both Selby and Frampton impressively and I don't think anyone could have anticipated that. Now only question that remains to be answered is: just how good is he? When he fights Santa Cruz, Valdez or Russell jr, it will be answered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoztheMadman Posted June 15, 2019 Author Share Posted June 15, 2019 Re: Warrington vs Galahad I think Warrington will win rather comfortably, 9 rounds to 3 or something like that. May get shaken once or twice but he's tough. Takes a lot more than that to stop the Leeds Warrior. :boxing: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undefeated Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Re: Warrington vs Galahad Goodness sake, that Galahad tried to rob the champion in his backyard, disgraceful performance, grabbing and holding every f****g round, he should have had a point off at least. Warrington looked as if he thought he got robbed when he heard there was a split decision, fair play to him though he actually said he thought the fight was close in his post fight interview, I didn't though, the Leeds Warrior was the clear winner on my card And STILL! Official scores 115-113 Galahad 116-112 & 116-113 Warrington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ton Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Re: Warrington vs Galahad Unfortunately I caught up on this today. Awful, dogged fight. Galahad evasive, sometimes managed to pick some slick shots on the counter but continuously just holding it was awful. Warrington at least pressed the action and got in a few good combinations, but he also looked a bit baffled at times with Galahads holding tactics. So in that sense I can see how it was kind of a close fight. Was one of those fights where the styles had potential to either gel really well and make for a great fight, or they just clashed and didn't work. This was certainly the latter. Right winner in the end though, I scored it 115-113 to Warrington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoztheMadman Posted June 18, 2019 Author Share Posted June 18, 2019 Re: Warrington vs Galahad Very very disappointing fight and Galahad fought scared. I guess his gameplan was to frustrate Warrington and he did just that, but still took enough leather. He's lucky Warrington can't punch. I had it clearly for Warrington still.
