    This fight is in advanced talks apparently for October. I'd love to see Hughes continue his winning streak against Galawad. Interesting match up.

    Think Galahad takes it on points which is unfortunate as Maxi is a good lad and Galahad is a dirty drugs cheat.

    I think Galahad will show the levels like he did against Jazza Dickens, but I hope Maxi Hughes wins.

    Hearn said he was planning on a big fight for Hughes which never materialised, I think against Garcia.

    They actually asked one of the biggest stars in boxing to come and fight under a different promotional banner in DONCASTER.

    This will probably headline as is the state of British boxing right now and won’t do any tickets.

    Maxi's been on an inspiring run but I don't think this is a good fight for him.

    Galahad wins this for me, he's moving up in weight and will have a point to prove after Kiko.

    Interesting fight. Been spoke of for a while hopefully it happens. Maxi in a good run of form but fancy kid to win on points.

    Sad to say but I can’t see how Maxi wins. Think Galahad outboxes him fairly comfortable so I’d rather the fight didn’t happen and Maxi gets a go at world honours instead.

    Kid had no chin or power at featherweight/super bantam. He'll be even more feather fisted at lightweight.

    50/50 fight, likely to be boring and would struggle to sell out a leisure centre

    It’s a decent fight, might be a stinker to watch, but this is where Hearn is now as a promoter on DAZN. British level fight for an IBO title. It reminds me of when his dad was promoting and all we got on Sky Sports were WBF and IBO fights with fighters like Steve Roberts, Richard Williams and the taxi driver fella from Nottingham. Like father like son, it’s the circle of life.
