Galahad v Dickens

[Pugilist-specialist]

[maverick23]

First fight wasn’t a bad one and was fairly close until the stoppage.

Isn’t Dickens guaranteed at least £100k/fight from winning the golden contract? Galahad’s now thinking he’s worth loads given the PBC talks so won’t be an easy fight to make.

From memory I thought Jazza was edging it but was tiring when he got stopped. Long time ago now and both have come on. Good fight

Be lying if I said for definite but think it was mate yeah

Vaguely recall Dickens doing well and it being a close fight but then he visibly tired in later rounds and Galahad noticed, put it on him, floored him heavily and ref called it off.

Rematch might be a more cagey affair.

Hmmm.

Be interesting to see what happens with this. Will PBC go for it as Kid has alluded to? I’d be surprised if they do.

Be a good Saturday fight night. Good match.

Yep - fully agree.

I reckon Eddie will bid c.£350k for it.

FW may even surprise us with a sneaky bid although he may be put off with a $5k bid fee.

Bit much for that fight on normal Sky with no fans.

What’s min bid? £100k or £200k?

Eddeh will be the only one bidding anyway.

No minimum that I could see and I’d be surprised if Eddie’s the only person bidding.

[keirw]

Decent fight, much rather see this rematch than the Warrington one.

Surely this ends up on Sky? I can't see anyone else bidding for it.

Can anyone shed any light on what Bellew is on about with his reference to somebody taking a third of the purse ?

20% to manager/promoter 10% to trainer would be a guess

Probably Ingle, who Boomer doesn’t like, taking 35%. Tone does it for nothing as he made a fortune on Box Office. Or, he’s just trying to hype the fight?

Sounds like Dickens is going the WBO route and will be on a Top Rank card.

Against Nava..

Where are you getting that from? Seems a strange decision of true - Navarette will be a much tougher fight than Galahad.

[garethhop]

Galahad himself. Dickens is ranked #1 by the WBO too....

[magnus]

Yeah, read an interview with Dickens on Boxing Scene where he talked about having "options" other than KG.

I didn't realise he was rated so highly by the WBO.

I'd say he has a much better chance of beating KG but $ talk.

[Steveh583]

i'd have to chortle if dickens shunned him, fought for the WBO and won, then a dickens vs warrington fight was made lol
