Josh Warrington vs Kid Galahad

[Andrew]

very harsh on galahad this forum.....im sure theres loads of fighters on gear, or have been, yet galahad gets dogs abuse. great wee fighter who has done the business in all his fights, and i think nobody wants to fight him because they dont want the L.

We should rightfully be harsh on all proven drug cheats. If a fighter ends up in a bad way after losing to a fighter who has tested positive for PEDs, then the sport is ruined.

I think the whole brother spiked my protein shake is total bollocks. The case file is on the UKAD site so people can make their own opinion.

Not a single fighter who has failed positive has come out and said " Oh well I got caught , I wanted to gain an advantage."

It's just ridiculous people saying Galahad would beat Warrinton. He has achieved nothing in the sport except beating Jazza Dickens nearly 5 years ago. That is his only proper fight and considering he failed a drug test 6 months makes that performance suspicious.

Most people said Selby would school Josh. Selby being a fighter significantly better than Galahad in ability and more proven in results.....and we know what happened there.

funny how someones going on about galahad getting abuse, i actually think hes been rated highly favorably compared to what hes actually done

and to me its not like hes this guy whose blown past everyone and just hasnt got the oppotrunities. he had plenty of problems with dickens and was losing for most of that fight. didnt have the look of this 'special' fighter ppl talk about. mostly been chumps since then. lets see him step up and show that hes the real deal.

warrington was one of the most underrated fighters here for years btw, so many going on about selby schooling him/hell lose to first half decent opponent. yet he just kept getting better and better and aside from spanking selby around at times even was outjabbing the supposed vastly superior boxer!

now hes mullenmans favourite fighter, right mm

Everytime Galahad's name comes up you mention Dickens fight and it was suspicious......Jazza Dickens got stopped end off.

Of course I mention that win because he has done nothing else of note worth talking about.

very harsh on galahad this forum.....im sure theres loads of fighters on gear, or have been, yet galahad gets dogs abuse. great wee fighter who has done the business in all his fights, and i think nobody wants to fight him because they dont want the L.

No other UK athlete has had a ban cut short without informing.
Galahad's was cut because there was no evidence of deliberate doping.

Does he still talk to his brother?

If sparring stories on this forum were true Jamie Cox would be the greatest super middleweight of all time

Honestly don't know, pal - never asked

[fizzjambo]

If you are a genuine PED cheat on this sport you are absolute scum - nothing short of that. I’ve no idea if he knowingly cheated or not but I don’t think anyone on here can honestly say they know better than the testing bodies.

[jimcook]

the testing bodies are more than likely corrupt too. Ive never heard of any footballers being done for peds.....maybe they are like cyclists- 87 % asmatics.

[mickey1975]

RL players get caught constantly.

[jimcook]

thats no surprise, they all look like the incredible hulk...but do you really think football is that clean?

I have seen Kid Galahad spar Selby.

[jamamb]

I’ve seen Warrington spar a York am. Sparring doesn’t mean a lot.

The late Lee Stewart, York am, undefeated pro was 2-0 against Josh as an am.

[jamamb]

jeez just looked lee up, 24 year old guy 3-0 as a pro and suddenly dies on vacation , not fair man

And a lovely kid.

Not sure but irrelevant as Galahad didn't start boxing until 14.
Jason Barker was a kid at the Ingle gym and he beat a Bradford Police kid 5 times. The Bradford kid was Junior Witter.

Yes its true and it is relevant.
To what degree its relevant is the question. It could well be that it is significantly not relative in the least and it could be a fact that until kid gets into his stride, should he meet josh he doesnt quite flow the same he would of done in them early rds.
The first fight was close and the 2nd fight was easy for warrington.

[jamamb]

i mean, if ppl are trying to pass off sparring stories of kid getting the better of guys ....but then dont think am fights are relevant

[keithmoonhangover]

Sparring is a strange one. It can tell you everything or nothing.

Sparin and am fights are relevant, ld say, its to what degree.
The degree might be so insignificant that it has no real effect on a later fight at all.
Or on the other side of the coin it can be a major help to the fighter who didnt so well in the spar or lost in an am fight. It can make them put even more effort into the next fight.
Theres also stories going rd like, ritson went down to joe g gym a couple of yr ago and he sparred cardle 3 times in a wk. He got run round the ring (cardle) on the first 2 spars and on the 3rd, joe sent cardle home after pulling him out of the spar.
If thats true then theres a good chance that is why cardle chose to fight the way he did in their last fight.
