    Their was plenty said from both sides in the build up. And from a personal experience Sean o'Hagan is top bloke.

    Manners is an absolute *****, remember he was holding an inflatable sheep at the Selby weigh in like a 12 year old schoolboy. He was trying to get involved at this weigh in too.

    Glad to hear it. He made the most of his big chance in life. Unfortunately the genie is out of the bottle regarding his style now. The whole world now knows he stinks the joint out. He is now chairman of the who needs him club. Add his very unattractive and hard to watch style to all his other negatives and I can't see much of a future for the kid in boxing. This might well turn out to be his one and only big purse.

    If he wants another go he will have to get himself into mand. Hes not ranked with any other organisations, it could be at least a couple of years before he gets back in for his shot. Then he's have to drop lucky like he did here and Frank willing to pay so well to back his man.
    To get paid like that again he'd have to win a belt and then hope someone pays big to get their fighter home advantage. Can't see Eddie backing kid like that again.
    I hope he enjoys his new home, one way or another he's earned it.

    Galahad has done well out of boxing. Probably has bought his house in cash. Not many people are mortgage free by 30.

    Never saw him in any clips of Warrington training, but there at every press conference, posing in sunglasses in changing room and hogging the limelight in the ring. What is his role?

    Weren't you predicting Warrington to batter him?
    You're coming across as very bitter.

    It's funny how those who were constantly predicting Kid G's downfall on Saturday are now predicting his downfall in the rest of the life.
    That "emallini" poster claimed he'd bet a grand on him getting knocked out. I dread to think what his prediction for his next couple of decades!!

    I don't hope either way doofus.
    Just my opinion on how long it'll take for him to get another shot. I could be wrong, he may get one in the next few month. But as has been pointed out, he doesn't do himself any favours in making the fights so horrible to watch. It's hard to generate your stock like that and that has consequences .
    I went to watch last night and the paying public weren't happy, they want excitement. This is a show you know.

    Reading comments on social media before the fight there were a lot of LUFC fans saying how KG was going to get banged out early.
    They weren't expecting him to rely on some home cooking.
