Standing off and posing him some questions, setting traps etc, not trying to force the fight as quigg would have to vs Frampton which would play into carls hands.
i just think Galahad could be paper to framptons rock, at least for parts of the fight
whereas if quigg is rock, i think Frampton could play the part of either paper, or just a plain ol bigger rock. But if Frampton plays paper, I'm not sure quigg even owns a pair of scissors. Ha.

Re: What's going on with Kid Galahad?
Sorry I just don't see why people think Galahad will beat Quigg.
His only proper fight was against Jazza Dickens which he was behind before the stoppage. Never watched his last fight I know it was short notice but the two before that were awful mismatches.
Wouldn't shock me if Quigg wiped him out in a few rounds I just don't think he is proven ........then again Quigg isn't much more proven TBH that Salinas he drew with looked decent but got chinned a few months later by someone with a 15-8 record (or along those lines)
Would love to see him fight Kiko Martinez and if he outclassed him then yeah I wouldn't dispute him being able to beat Quigg.
Him and Quigg really should have been fighting last September but I think Hearn saw it as too risky.

Re: What's going on with Kid Galahad?
frampton beats both of them,for me, i would say he would ko kid galahad
Re: What's going on with Kid Galahad?
I thought Salinas looked terrible against Quigg. Quigg was intimidated by him for no reason.Naandrew wrote:TBH that Salinas he drew with looked decent but got chinned a few months later by someone with a 15-8 record (or along those lines)

It seemed like they fell into the trap of 'he's Cuban, so he must be good' and very nearly paid for it.Horse wrote:I thought Salinas looked terrible against Quigg.

I do remember Gallaghers master tactics which resulted in throwing early rounds awayexpe wrote:It seemed like they fell into the trap of 'he's Cuban, so he must be good' and very nearly paid for it.Horse wrote:I thought Salinas looked terrible against Quigg.

Yeah it seemed to me Quigg was quite bemused by it all,he was on the leash until it was too late,I still thought Scott nicked it thoughHorse wrote:Yep.expe wrote:It seemed like they fell into the trap of 'he's Cuban, so he must be good' and very nearly paid for it.

Re: What's going on with Kid Galahad?
Good news, he can't just wait around hoping someone throws him a bone, he needs to be active.thatllbeme wrote:fighting in july with Hughie fury on the undercard in a step up fight
Looking forward to hearing who the Fury opponent is. Though he was pretty impressive last time out.
Channel 5 then?
