Josh Warrington vs. Kid Galahad - 15 June 2019

[Nondescript]

A lot of people seemingly underestimating Warrington here, which is always the theme for Josh's fights. I've been massively guilty of it myself. I used to think he was just a European level fighter.

[Ruthless-RKO]

This is why I don't like Leeds fans and Josh. A bottle was thrown at Barry during the weigh-in

Warrington (28-0, 6KOs) tipped the scales at a trim and fit 125.5 pounds, slightly lighter than his unbeaten challenger as Galahad (26-0, 15KOs) checked in at 125.75 pounds.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Warrington (28-0, 6KOs) will earn $1,085,500 for what will mark the second defense of his title. Galahad (26-0, 15KOs) will collect $584,500 for his first shot at a major title.

Warringtons fans do seem rather feral.

I hope that KG schools him and stops him late.

Man’s gotta dream.

Not sure why that's Josh's fault

I've heard some on here say he's down to earth and humble. But he comes across as a prick to me. That's just my opinion.

He thinks he's some thug.

I feel that way about Josh Taylor. Always comes off as a massive dick to me.

Did JJ Metcalf show up for the weigh in in the end ?

every account of every fan ive ever heard meet josh in person is overwehlmingly positive, along with his dad and wife as well (apparetnyl she at least used to deliver tickets to fans in person), makes me tolerate his personality in media a bit more, which i do agree can seem pudendum like

i do get the sense he doesnt really like galahad though, seems a bit spiteyer with him then other opponents

Am guilty of it to be fair , am
Still not sold on josh yet I think he’s a solid operator but I think he got Selby and frampton on their decline . Selby looked pretty poor in his last fight also . Tommorow is going to be tough fight for both

True. It is possible that he just caught both at the perfect time.

[jamamb]

cant say i really noticed substantial decline from either

[rpms]

Not sure why this is being seen as so close tbh,Barry has achieved very little over the last few years,whilst Warrington has proved himself and is on quite a roll.
Josh by late stoppage around the 10th for me.

Thug act from Warrington encouraging some of the blue arsed baboons that follow him- Throwing a bottle taking us straight back to the bad old 80s

Agreed but it's hard to feel sorry for galahad considering how he came across in vids with Saunders and the useless Phelps girl

if it kicks off tomorrow outside the ring it will hardly come as a surprise to most. We have been predicting it for years here.

According to Hearn there is no way this bill covers that.
Ingle has constantly taunted Warrington he is getting the smaller purse and it hasn't been denied by fighter or promoter.

FW won the pursebid around $1.6m. Hearn bid $1.4m.. FW has been too busy promoting Fury in Vegas.

Sponsorships, ticket sales along with BT Sports funding, it should be fine.

If they were never gonna cover the costs, it would have been a PPV.

Just watched the weigh in. Warrington’s fans are just a bunch of Footy supporters.

He initiated the whole kick off from them face off as well.
