koking

maybe im wrong but isnt chris gallagher a 66kg fighter

Jason Mc

Chris fought at 77 on one of our shows...

He is a better fighter than his record suggests

koking

my mistake sorry i thought he fought pete wilson at a lower weight

Jason Mc

I think thats Johnny McGillion you are talking about

chris gallagher vs pete wilson
think pete usually fights feather or batam,only reason im sayin this is because there is a few middleweight in this tournament thats a lot of weight to give away

Jason Mc

didnt see that fight.

I think Chris has fought at lightweight too so yeah he won't be having any size advantage.

Haven't seen him for a while. Maybe he has bulked up
