I think Zerafa wins tonight
OFFICIAL BOXING DISCUSSION
- Thread starter king_sirro
- Start date
Do you get the feeling Zerafa is just a notch below world level? A good fighter but just not quite there.

Feel like Gallen shouldn't still be fighting he is a Warrior and all but he ain't class like these other blokes. Tim Tzu is the best I've seen come through in years.

Class like who though? Gallen has next-level toughness, sometimes toughness overcomes skill in any sport. Good luck to Gallen if he wants to keep fighting IMO, his never say die attitude keeps even career-boxers honest. He isn't a easy beat like some ex footy players. Have never liked the bloke but I definitely admire his competitiveness and will to win in a sport outside his comfort zone.
Unfortunate for Hardman.
Zerafa, too good.
Levels to the game.

How good this weekend, Fury vs Ya Tarkin Rubbish.
The undercard is probably one of the worst in history for such a fight.
wake up 1 min before it starts.

Yep watched it, he's a big lad hey. Did I hear correctly him saying that he's hanging up the gloves, surely not 🤔
Says he is even post fight. Boxer retirements are as flimsy as our defence last season though. It’s a shame from a fan’s perspective as he’s so watchable and interesting. Undefeated but seemingly very beatable. A very good one punch boxer though, one of the best.

He certainly is a character. Are you going to watch the Gallen fight? I am purely to promote Aussie boxing 🥊🥊.
What's your opinion on my post #689. I'm interested if anyone else has thought the same thing or am I over the top?
I doubt it. I tend to avoid the donkey circuit. I also think Gallen is a tough resilient fighter rather than a decent boxer but if he keeps winning against decent opponents I may reconsider. The guy he’s fighting next as a decent record on paper (10-1-1) but none of his victories has been against a guy with a decent winning record (if you ignore 1-0 and 2-1 records. When he did fight a guy with a decent record he was stopped in 5 rounds. Still it’s a step in the right direction. He was better than I expected against Huni but hopelessly outclassed.
On the previous post I’m not sure I have a strong opinion. Boxers say or think whatever they do to motivate themselves I suppose. Once you stop believing you’re better for whatever reason you’ve convinced yourself, you’re toast. Tyson and Fenech are classic examples. Once they stopped believing they were going to win every fight the decline was dramatic and rapid.

Gallen wasn't in the class of Huni but did give a reasonable account of himself.
I can't wait for the 'Ferocious' bout.

The religious are hypocritical mate, no matter what the denomination. Most only follow the teachings only when its convenient or of use to their own self promotion.

Yep we've seen it so many times throughout history.
I learnt the "Art of Boxing" as a kid and have always loved it, but as I've grown older I take notice of things that don't seem right.
I think there is a place in the sport for tough skillful boxers and respectful great role models alike.
People who are true Christians are 24x7 and not when it suits their cause.
The sport is bigger than individuals but they don't act like it.
👍
