    Difference is Conor was 29 and a pro MMA fighter. Hall is 42 and hasn't been a pro athlete for more than 5 years. I reckon both Hall and Gallen are juicing.

    There have been successful crossovers to boxing from similar combat sports. MT, Kickboxing and even MMA. Rugby and Football players making the switch isn't the same and shouldn't be taken seriously. Only a handful of guys have ever amounted to anything even regionally. Mundine aside... Haumono was alright for the scene but considering the fact he grew up around boxing as well its hardly the same as other rugby and football crossovers.

    Hats off to Big Bad Barry on a very courageous performance.

    Watching him walk to the ring I was thinking that's not what 43 year olds should be doing.

    But he pulled it off. Well done to him. And to Paul Gallen for a solid 6 rounds.

    Gallen applied the pressure & Triple B mostly absorbed it. Two judges scored it 3 apiece & the other scored it 4-2 Gallen. It was entertaining to watch & the crowd was really into it. Great atmosphere.

    Andrew Moloney just won the interim WBA Super Flyweight title when the referee stopped the contest on the advice of the doctor. Elton Dharry was world class but one of his eyes was closed for several rounds before they decided to stop it. Moloney was hurt badly during the contest but that's how it is at the pointy end of the sport. Apart from the round he was badly hurt, I thought he controlled things for the most part. The other guy was always in it though b/c he punched hard with the right hand & was able to land it effectively when he needed to.

    Yeah division is stacked at the moment. Just off the top of my head there are close to 10 guys I'd favor over him. He'd be a worthy challenger to any though.
