    Same, Barry has always appeared to have a good chin

    Arrogance tonight maybe after doing so well early on?

    Bellew talking about the weight issues, get real

    There was no issues when he held the belt 30 minutes ago

    The idea that kid galahad losing a world title is in somehow a disaster for Eddie Hearn is quite ridiculous.

    Galahad isn't exactly a draw lol.

    Hearn should be looking to get kiko and Sandor on the same bill for big homecoming fights in Spain.

    No, He got dropped by an old, feather fisted Jason Booth.

    He's had a VERY padded record throughout his career and never faced punchers. They were obviously hiding it.

    Galahad has always looked sturdy to me so the much smaller kiko knocking him out never crossed my mind but two cracking shots done the business!

    It's because his roster is getting so paper thin.

    They must have been banking on a big ppv clash down the line between barry and Warrington.

    I actually feel a bit bad for Galahad, he dreamed of headlining in his home town and gets knocked out.

    Hearn chose a guy who wasn't even ranked in the IBF top 15 for an '' easy first defence''

    An old, shot Kiko Martinez who lost to Frampton 9 years ago, who has double figures in losses

    :lol::lol:

    Mate that has to be one of the most embarrassing losses ever.

    Were they?

    That was never talked about. Warrington wasn't looking to fight galahad again and his got his own career to get back on track.

    After the first fight and how the styles gelled I don't believe they was looking at a ppv fight between those two. No way.

    I know what you mean mate, but don’t feel remotely bad. Let’s be happy for 35 year old Kiko who was stopped in 2 rounds by Quigg over 5 years ago.

    Martinez did actually magically appear in 15th spot in the ibf rankings when I looked the other day.

    Galahad was always in the shadows of Frampton, Quigg, Warrington, Selby, etc for a reason.

    He was never on their level. He needed peds for British title fights ffs. :lol:
