    He didn't get beat though, Galahad wasn't forcing the action, and barely landed anything of note the entire fight.

    Well they say it healthy to get a good nights sleep. So from that perspective i'm all for the rematch.

    If he doesn't want to fight a guy who beat him again do the right thing and drop the belt.

    He's a fake champion to me now but don't worry he won't keep that belt much longer anyway

    I thought Galahad may have edged it, but some of the rounds were pretty close and difficult to score. I do think Galahad will regret not making more of the running himself.

    cos he is a proven cheat none of the top guys want to give him a payday cos they have zero respect for him. Couple that with the fact that he is an awkward fighter to take on and hard to look good against can in turn harm future income.

    KG is firmly in the who needs him camp. Fighters hate him for cheating, know his style isnt conducive to a casual friendly viewing and is also relatively unknown.

    Warrington has already fought him and won, he did his part.

    KG is an Unappealing name still
    1st match stunk the gaff out
    Hard nights work
    Will add nothing to his CV
    Will in no way boost JWs name.

    I thought Galahad won but no I don’t want to see it again.

    I also don’t blame JW. If you lose to a fighter and are gifted a win and you’re not enforced to fight them again then avoid at all costs.

    Who cares, it was a rancid fight and Galahad is awful to watch.

    Funny how people are holding it against JW for getting a supposed gift of a decision. The bottom line is, Josh officially won a close fight. If you want to say he 'should' have lost, then surely you have to admit that Galahad 'should' have had points deducted. It's not like KG 'won' it fighting fair and square.

    For what's it worth I had KG a point or two up going into the 10th. I think in the end I edged it to him, but it was far from a clear cut victory, a point or two deducted definitely would have swung it to the JW.

    Warrington won for me in a horrible, boring fight. Galahad's a drug cheat to boot, and Warrington clearly hates him.

    I'd have very little issue with Galahad receiving news that meant he couldn't box again.

    He is the Champ - he won; Galahad is a disrespectful drugs cheat; and it was a rotten fight... makes sense to me. he is one of the top featherweights in the world who can land mega fights now and move onwards + upwards.

    I don't think anyone is blaming Josh for getting the nod in a close fight.
