    I dont think galahad is an easy fight for Warrington. I think it's a good win for Warrington if he gets a win over galahad. It's a good domestic fight. Battle of Yorkshire and a lot of bragging rights

    I've watched the video and I'm sure he says he wants what's best for Warrington and would rather see him in a unification fight
    Sure he mentioned kid Galahad fight will be going to purse bids

    Buatsi/Johnson/Yarde. Buatsi and Yarde are at the same stage in their career a British title fight between them is unarguable really. Johnson has been there done it and on to other things. No doubt one or both will face him in the future.


    Has callum johnson really done it, he fought limited fighters until he ko'd frank buglioni in a round for British title, never defended it went straight against Artur Beterbiev and lost. So really his level is about the same, and that's the same with yarde and even lydon arthur could do the same.

    Galahad is not an easy night for anyone. A defeat in the States is easier to stomach than losing to a local rival as Hatton and Khan have previously shown.

    I'm not delighted at Galahad getting a shot either. But it is hypocrisy from Warren. On that basis BJS should never get a title shot again, nor Fury.

    You'll see I put the word relatively in there mate. Comparing it to potentially going out and facing Gary Russell Jr, Santa Cruz and Valdez.

    Warrington's dad admitted that they want none of Russell.
    If you're comparing risk/reward, Santa Cruz and Valdez might be more attractive than Galahad.

    Yes, galahad would be the least risk and the least reward.

    Let's hope that Warrington won't duck such an easy fight.

    I never said it was an easy fight but come on mate out of the names given, galahad would be seen as the easiest fight, don't you agree?
    For the record tho bent nose, galahad won't be an easy fight for Josh.

    Galahad is a very dangerous fighter, unbeaten, desperate to prove himself, decent power and we know how good Ingle’s fighters are with their footwork. I genuinely think this lad could operate successfully at world level. It’s took years for Warrington to get the credit he deserves and Galahad although unpopular amongst boxing fans could also go on to win a world title...genuinely. Warrington will have to be at the top of his game to make sure he’s not that scalp.

    Actually think vacating might not be too bad. Fight Valdez for WBO, in the meantime Galahad fights for vacant IBF, then they meet end of year in a unification.

    I agree m8, Galahad is very underrated. I also believe many are underrating him as they don't like him as a person, but he's a terrific boxer who is very fit.

    What would be the point? Nobody in there right mind would do that. Scenarios like that very really work out anyway.

    Definitely mate. I’m not surprised with Warren’s attitude to it. It’s a very difficult, tough fight and if he won he’d get no credit for it.
