What a fight!! Respect to Gal (ugh), that was tough as hell, he didn't disappoint himself. Thoroughly outclassed but hung right in there. Well done Huni, that was epic.

Yeah this. Can't stand the twat but he's tough as **** and can actually box. Came up against an actual in form, fit boxer and didn't disgrace himself. Respect

Don't think so. HIs previous fight against tsoye he couldn't find the killer blow despite peppering him all night.
22 is super young for a boxer tho, not everyone is canelo. has time to improve but will need to improve if he wants to make waves internationally.

Seemed like it to me as well, every time he wobbled Gallen in the first 6 or 7 rounds he held back and started working the body. Seemed like he was almost using this fight for practice in late-round fatigued boxing more than anything else.

Would believe it, those 2nd/3rd/4th rounds were brutal for Gallen

Do you think the peptides gave him wolverine like bones?

I think we all just saw it confirmed. I'd also be asking what's in that fucking water after the way he came back after the 4th.

Of course he is.....he uses performance enhancing drugs to make up for his lack of actual talent.

Respect (disgusting to even type) for Gallens endurance,sheer determination, and willingness to step into the ring with Huni.
I'd been calling for this fight for a while now having watched Huni through the ranks and have to admit I was wrong.
I genuinely didn't think Gal would step up and take the fight, but he hung in well through the avalanche of body blows early on.
Huni's power has never been his biggest asset, it's his footwork/speed and knowing where to find the weakness in breaking down his opponents.
As good as he is already, he'll need to (continue to) grow another few gears to challenge the top heavyweights.
Bring on the Olympics and this kids rise!
