I'm signing off.
Don’t need to see this beatdown. Enjoyed 3 fights on the card + the Harper statue KO
I'll be tuning into the American card later on

Rookie error..

[KiwiRider]

OK I've tuned back in.
Hopefully a replay.

Me 2!! What a shot though. Should've been stopped after 1st one

[Ruthless-RKO]

That last shot was brilliant!

Same shot but landed very much on the button.

Didn’t get enough recovery time as well..

Kiko !
What a finish.

Can anyone think of someone more in control and cruising to a dominant stylish win that got KTFO'd like that ?

It's up there with the biggest upsets.

I was admiring how Galahad was great at knowing when to step back, gradually breaks you down.

But that was awful finish to that fight. So unexpected.

[handsofstone]

Holy fck thats one of the most shocking KOs I've seen, Galahad was in cruise control, played with his food a bit but was in complete control, switching and befuddling Martinez, too quick for him, Martinez fought how he's always fought plenty bobbing and weaving and winging in shots but not having any success, then right at the end of the 5th drops Galahad hard with a monster overhand right, Galahad done well to even get up, I thought he'd get on his bike in the 6th then BANG first punch of the round, same punch and Galahad was out, love it when a drug cheat gets starched, beautiful,

Fcvkng Kiko Martinez

I bloody love boxing at times.

[maverick23]

It’s weird. I’m a Galahad fan (not a massive one) but I’m not too disappointed and super pleased for Kiko. It’s amazing the level he’s been at/stayed at since icing Bernard Dunne.

[Dioufy]

It’s gonna be Leigh wood v Martinez now

Unifaction

wonder what the in fight odds were? Galahad was hurting him with nothing shots, and boxing his head of... but its all well and good switching stances and looking slick, was starting to look like a masterclass.... but if your chins in the air when a crude overhand right is coming then that isnt a boxing masterclass.

[skanksta]

Similar to Whyte vs Pov 1.

You can never write off someone if they've got that real proven class - however old and past it they seem.

And none of us gave him a prayer

[handsofstone]

Bellew blaming Galahad getting iced twice by monster right hands on struggles with the weight

[Ruthless-RKO]

Looked as though Kid was being hurt to the body a little. Went protective. Then the overhand lands.

Nobody else has managed to land it though .
Who'd a thunk it ?

It won’t. Wood’s got Conlan and until they sort out the Santa Cruz stuff the IBF won’t allow a unification of the standard belt.

[KiwiRider]

So happy for the little dude.

Oh baby what a night!
