Kid Galahad vs. Kiko Martinez | DAZN - 13 November 2021

[Ruthless-RKO]

[peter barlow]

There are a couple of decent looking fights that may well be on YouTube….

Flint/Hunt for the Central light welter belt. Both unbeaten but I think Hunt wins a fairly wide one on points.

Donte Dixon/Jordan McCorry - good fight for Donte who looked sharp in his last few fights. Perfect step up fight for him.

I may stick them on YouTube actually, they're probably on from 4pm ?

Will be more like 5.30/6pm.

One of the fights might make the main show.

Cheers

The champ fails to make weight. His got 2 hours to lose the extra weight.

Only 0.1lb so hopefully he’ll be fine.

[stujones]

Interesting as a still view him as a small Featherweight.

Eddie Hearn to double fighter's purse if he records KO on Kid Galahad undercard

James Flint and Dom Hunt will clash on the undercard of Galahad's title defence with Martinez in Sheffield, and promoter Hearn has offered to double the purse of the winner

Eddie Hearn has raised the stakes of the Central Area title clash between James Flint and Dom Hunt by offering to double the purse of the winner.

The pair will clash on the undercard of Kid Galahad's first world title defence against Kiko Martinez in Sheffield on Saturday night.

And Hearn has upped the ante ahead of the domestic super-lightweight showdown by offering to double the earnings of the winning fighter.

"These guys have the opportunity to box in front of the world," he said. "And as we know winner stays on.

"And these guys are going to kick off the main broadcast, I want to try something different for this fight as I know it is a big opportunity for you both.

"I want you to go in there and have an absolute war, so we are going to double your purse via knockout."

The pair are very evenly matched going into the fight with Flint considered the marginal favourite.

And they will clash for the vacant Central Area title, with the added opportunity of securing a future slot on the Matchroom platform.

The card will be topped by Sheffield's new world featherweight champion Galahad who will face lively challenger Martinez.

His challenger impressed against Zelfa Barrett back in February on domestic soil and was unfortunate to be on the wrong side of a decision.

Galahad earned his IBF strap with a victory over Jazza Dickens at Fight Camp with the pair earning plaudits for their bloody battle.

But he has refused to overlook Martinez with the prospect of unification clashes against the likes of Leigh Wood looming.

lmao then lowe (ranked) and the number 4 can't remember his name go to purse bids for a final eliminator but turned down a straight shot at the champ. Have a day off

In the first couple of minutes Eddie confirms Lowe turned it down



Apology due.

[KiwiRider]

Gee Kiko looked small next to The Kid at the weigh in.
I know he is tough and experienced, but if you saw the two of them together at the final face off, you would say it's a mismatch.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Did Barry have a shit then? Lose that 0.1 lb?

No need lowe has since said he was offered peanuts so is going down the mandatory route to get a better deal.

[margaret thatcher]

lowe got himself a real tough fight, tbh im glad he choose that route because it's also a really good fight, whereas id think kid would beat him easy

Lowe said he hadn't had an offer. Now he says he hasn't turned down the fight but the offer was peanuts.
A couple of days ago you were scoffing at the suggestion that he had turned it down. "lmao"

Can only go off coments I've seen. But we all know how hearn deals. An offer can be made but if its insulting its never gunna b accepted. But fair play to lowe his still going for the mandatory spot. Hearn said their was no in top 15 interested or was it the money isn't their as he knew this show wouldn't sell full stop.

Lowe's share of the eliminator purse bid is $6,000 and he's turned down a World title shot.

So Isaac’s first comment was a lie but the second is the truth?

Any way good luck tonight.

No idea but we can safely assume it was more than the $6k he’ll be getting in his eliminator.

He’s probably seen the purse bid for Wood/Conlan and thought that worst case if he’s made mandatory he’ll get a decent payday from purse bids and probably more than he’d have been offered for the voluntary.

I might not like kid but his a british fighter defending his title against a foreigner. If he loses id rather it was against a british fighter.

My bad I thought it was from another poster who's part the team

Or he's one of the list who doesn't want to fight Galahad and would rather wait and hopes he moves up a division.
