I remember Tommy Shiels as a kid. We were in the same England Schoolboy international at the exclusive venue in Teignmouth Devon as 15 year olds. He chewed so much nonchalent gum while stretching winding up the trainer until he got threw out. Naughty schoolboy. Saw Roy Rowland jab jab jab move and pick pick him off over the 3 minute limit over 3 rounds. Never saw the punch through walls stuff.. Maybe overpromoted wink. Hope he doing ok.
ooh, boxing for england, you're a stud
That's a pretty damn good achievement, especially for a boxrec poster, why, can you top that?

Nope, that's why I made the comment, it is very impressive and I wasn't being sarcastic. Our boi Stick must've been a hell of a boxer to make it to that level, something most of us could only wish for

Obviously I mean at world level!
As of now he's done about as much as Gavin Mcdonnell, Liam Walsh, Brian Rose, Kevin Satchell, Jamie Cox. Those sort of guys.
So if he was to retire right now for example. I would definitely say hes been a hype job. Because he's been a pro for 10 years and what hes done doesn't match the hype hes been given.
Galahad boxed the highest rated fighter in his division in his hometown and lost a controversial split decision. Satchell never boxed at world level. Walsh, Rose and Cox never boxed at European level. they were chosen as world title challengers and all got knocked out (as did McDonnell in his last attempt).
I don't recall any hype when Galahad turned pro and he hasn't received any from Sky or BT.
You are wrong on most things there, lol
Brian Rose won a world title eliminator became mandatory and fought for a world title and lost - same as Galahad
LIam Walsh won a world title eliminator became mandatory and fought for a world title and lost - same as Galahad.
Walsh has loads more british and commonwealth title wins and has a better resume than Glahads
Jamie Cox fought and lost for a world title- same as Galahad. And his resume is weak like Galahads
Satchell had 6 wins in British/Commonwealth/European fights. Galahad had just 3.
Galahad had plenty of hype on channel 5
They are all very comparable
PS- Your I hope your boy Barry is keeping his distance from everyone cause we know he likes hugging!.

The Ring Magazine have Barry at no.6 in their world rankings. He has been in their top 10 for 65 weeks.
Please show me how Rose, Walsh, Cox and Satchell are all very comparable to this.

They also have Andrew Tabiti at 6th at Cruiserweight
Frampton, Santa Cruz and Valdez, Quigg all recently moved up so Featherweight has got weaker hence why a mediocre hypejob like Galahad has an inflated ranking.
Liam Walsh was definitely a top 10 rated fighter at one point, look at his resume compared to Galahads. Walshs list of wins is far better.
I'm guessing your Galahads mate/or family, or a Ingle gym mate or something. You overrate him massively
I don't rate Galahad much so we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Who cares about
Walsh never got past British level. Beating an alcoholic 8 years after he held a world title doesn't change that.
Quigg did nothing as a featherweight and Frampton got battered by Warrington.
Even if the 4 you named were somehow in the featherweight rankings, Barry would still be top 10.
You still haven't explained how Brian Rose could be compared

Wow ok you're a troll
Galahad has never got past British level either! That spanish bum he fought for the european title had a 9-3 -1 record and now is 14-8-2.
Galahad is just a bang average hype job ped cheat boring feather fisted joke, who almost lost to Toka Clary and Jazza Dickens, and got dropped by Jason Booth, and is 0-3 against the only good fighter he ever faced.
Galahad has lived like a monk all his life been a pro for about 11 years, said he's never had a girlfriend, dedicated himself to boxing fully, been on the Ingle Pringles peds and still done NOTHING! Never beat a single ex world champion lol. Yet you still get mongs like you hyping/overrrating him. He's the definition of a hype job!!! He'll be forgotten about very quickly after his next loss.
maybe you are the brother that spiked his drink!
