    This fight didn't prove much because Galahad would make anyone look bad Russell included.

    There’s absolutely zero relevance in this unimaginative dig

    Prince fighting an ATG on an off night and getting beat is vastly different to Russell Jr beating up the Space Raider

    Wont happen anyway as Warrington will fight bums in Leeds until the end of his reign now

    Loool what fight did you watch, Galahad made him miss at will and Warrington fell off balance into a clinch every time

    on an 'off night' hahaha your excuses are ****ing hilarious like Galahads peds excuse!! Barrera would have beaten Hamed 100 times out of a 100, there are levels to this sport and Hamed could never ever be on Barreras level.

    Galahad can't even fight, he's a bum who's terrible to watch. Warrington is a top 4 Featherweight world champ who has beaten Frampton, Selby, Martinez. And you're a butthurt fan of Galahad who DSKAB.

    Warrington's strength is his biggest weakness long term, as if often the case with high volume buzz saw boxers. Once he slips from his very peak the decline is going to impact because when he is forced to box at a slower pace, he looks a little lost to me. Also, I can't see him being able to fight with such high intensity once past 30, so really he has a couple of years before either age or a slick mover gets hold of him.

    But fair does, his recent wins are the best in the division and he's made the most of what talent he was given...

    You are absolutely insane but it’s hilarious. Not once said I’m a Galahad fan, so I’ve no idea where you’ve pulled that’s one from. I find him boring and just awful to watch but for being a ‘bum’ as you said he sure made Warrington look like an absolute idiot in the ring last night swinging wildly and barely landing anything.

    You must be a dosser from Leeds to think Warrington is that great

    Your Barrera/Hamed thing still irrelevant to this whole thread by the way. Naz lost once to an ATG about 20 years ago which has absolutely nothing to do with Warrington, Galahad or Russell Jr

    Galahad is smaller version of Lawrence Okolie.

    Galahad will make anyone look bad, he's got such a horrible style of fighting but he needs to engage a bit more if he's to take a belt from a champion.

    Galahad is a slick, switch hitting wrestler & an ingle gym fighter.. they're notorious for being bad style matchups. He tries to slow the pace & mesmerise the opponent with footwork & hugging & countering. Very low out put fighter..

    GRJ is more of an athletic, punches in bunches, higher output guy who moves in straighter lines. Fast, as opposed to oily & slippery like Gal-aped

    Messy awful fight in which josh missed a lot but still landed more than KG & wasn't cheating to alter the rhythm of the fight. He deserved the win. It was never going to be pretty though.

    Base any potential matchup based off a performance against an ingle fighter at your peril! Josh just had a bad style match..

    Valdez, GRJ & LSC fight nothing like him.

    Josh has the best FW run & is one of the most intense, unpredictable & physical fighters at 126 still. I'd happily pick him over Valdez & maybe even LSC (who is getting wear & tear now & not a career FW)..

    My god fans are fickle:lol:

    The second he stepped up and fought an elite fighter, he got completely dominated in a total one sided mismatch. Then retired at a young age cause he knew he couldn't compete with the top boys.

    So are you saying that’s what’s going to happen to Warrington then? If he steps up and fights Russell Jr?

    That was a very under prepared Naz He was a much better fighter than you seen that night. Barerra had the fight of his career that night. And he didn't retire straight after he fought once more the year later if memory serves.

    Jw beats Valdez of that I’m convinced and him versus Leo is 50-50 fight but yeah I agree gary Russell would beat him.

    Grj to many angles got very fast hands and has more power than josh.

    Warrington knew KG could be a potential banana skin to lucrative US fights & probably felt the pressure a bit more than usual as he's always been an underdog. Job done, bring on vegas

    Boxing seen had it a draw & I think the consensus here was it was a forgettable stinker akin to Durrell v froch
