    Correct decision IMO. Had Warrington been allowed to box he'd of won clearer than he did.

    KG had good tactics apart from the bit where he was meant to throw a punch. JW ran round windmilling and being cuddled for 36 minutes.

    Fair result.

    Daft the referee stood with the scores in front of Kid Galahad though we knew the result before it was announced from his reaction

    I don't like Kid Galahad, but I always like to see the right man get the decision. The right man did not get the decision tonight.

    That stupid yank mc gave it away to us fans by letting Galahad see the scores. Why can’t we get British people to do it still anyway, these yanks make it tacky.

    Awful fight, very hard to score. Very little clean work from either. No way was Galahad going to get that. Funny thing is Warrington saying he can’t expect to come to champs backyard and nick it. That shouldn’t make a difference should it.

    Not a great fight, KG held and spoiled (said hed need to do that to win), but to be fair he moved his arms around a lot so wasnt just clinging on in one position, so made it look like he was trying to get out of it, correct thing for him to do to stop Warrington working (which he did for 2/3rds of the fight).

    Saying that, no way Warrington won that fight either imo. Last 3rd of the fight he was the stronger fighter but he barely won a round clear in the first 7.

    I dont like Galahad as a person but anyone who knows boxing who scored that to Warrington is being blinded by their dislike of Galahad. It wasnt even close.

    A load of dog mess but I’m glad the drug cheat goes home empty handed. And if you believe his brother spiked his protein shake, you need sectioned.

    I had Galahad up, wouldn’t have argued with Warrington by 1 but scorecards were wide for me...

    Prefer Galahad as a boxer, more skilled. People hating, not saying he’s as good but floyd Mayweather is seen as one of the best boxers of all time for nullifying his opponents...Warrington was nullified for me...

    Close but Galahad didn't do enough to take the title.

    Galahad did everything well apart from letting his hands go. If Galahad put some punches together I think he's the better boxer.

    Warrington didn't impress me that much either.

    A draw would have been fair but you cant take a title away from someone without throwing a punch

    Agree and I thought Warrington would likely be too strong but KG got his tactics spot on tbh.
