In your opinion he either loses it first or he swerves him. What else is there?
Unification matches? Galahad loses? Galahad gets caught again?
Stevenson boxes in March. Galahad wins impressively. Drug tested frequently and he's clean.
Mandatory.

That was a serious performance from Kid G, he was different gravy. Even the haters have got to be impressed.

Nope.
Sorry, I'm not impressed. Galahad fought so dirty that even the Sky nut hugging commentators couldn't avoid saying it.
Marrero was not even close to championship level.
Galahad is a dirty fighting drug cheat.

Maybe fighting Dirty is result of getting screwed over in Leeds - he’s not leaving anything to chance anymore.

Sometimes when you have to you win ugly as well.

He didn't get screwed over in Leeds by anyone but himself

I think his brother screwed him another time, or was it Ingle with his pringles

He still won the fight with Warrington granted he stunk the building out trying to nick it.

Ugly or cheat?
Because boxing is using the gloves, not your head/forearms, elbows.
If you can't win a boxing match by boxing, and have to use other methods, then you need to work on your boxing.
My original response was that I wasn't impressed, I stick by that.

He got the decision in Leeds. He was flying before - talking of fighting in Vegas. Galahad has stalled his career. He's fought once since against no.126 in the world in his hometown.
Galahad is his mandatory and you say he won't fight him. Why not?

It was a boring fight. Kid didn’t try to win it. Nobody outside the Wincobank gym wants to see it again.

Your personal views are irrelevant Mickey. The IBF have made him mandatory. If the champion won't fight Galahad he gets stripped. You say Warrington won't fight him.

Your personal views are too! It’s not happening.
Ps Wincobank has helped my friends career more than any other gym in the country.

But they are not my views. I didn't make Galahad IBF mandatory.
You said 6 weeks ago that the fight won't happen because Galahad might lose or he might fail a drugs test. Have you any genuine reasons why Warrington won't fight his mandatory or are you just going to keep repeating "It's not happening"?

Impressive win by Galahad, knowing how tough Marrero can be.
