    Just looking at boxrec for the small hall thread and found this fight.

    Channel 5 show, Saturday 12th May

    Kid Galahad vs Josh Wale
    WBC International Super Bantamweight Title.

    Not a bad fight, Wale is back on a decent run of form.

    decent test for Galahad, Wale gave Willie Casey a very good fight on prizefighter.

    Nice domestic fight. Wale is pretty tall and rangey, not a bad fighter at all and will probably pose a few problems for the unorthodox style that Galahad uses. Neither punch very hard so I see this going the distance, with Galahad getting the nod.

    Glad to see Wale back at 122, his best weight imo.

    I'm looking forward to this, I think the Kid will have too much for Wale. Good matchmaking, Wale isnt a dangerous puncher & will give Galahad the room to box & move.

    I'd like to see Galahad fight a good, come-forward pressure fighter soon but I'm a fan of the Kid. I like his style, a pure boxer with good speed & hopefully he'll start to sit down & get more rotation & tourque on his punches, especially his hooks.

    Galahad UD

    Do you think so? I know Booth is past his best now and that super bantam's never really been his weight class but it's a decent win nonetheless for someone of his relative inexperience.

    If he gets through this, he'll be able to get up to British level I envisage without doubt. The division is strong without doubt domestically at the moment and his seeming lack of power might hold him back vs the likes of Frampton & Quigg but I'd expect him to challenge at British level at some point.

    I'd consider Wale to be his best win, should he beat him. Booth is beyond shot.

    Generally speaking this a good fight , not sure what the WBC international title is all about but non the less its a good fight between 2 men @ British level

    I fancy Galahad but Wale will have his moments

    Wale fades quickly but is a pretty decent offensive fighter and should force Galahad out of his comfort zone a bit, and force him to show summat. Good fight.

    I think Galahad will be at world level in 2-3 years.
