Josh Warrington’s rival, Kid Galahad, has fired back at the former featherweight champion. The Britisher commented on the controversial decision made by ‘The Leeds Warrior’ to vacate the belt. He even spoke about their fight.

Galahad has been one of Warrington’s fiercest rivals over the past few years. The pair fought in 2019 in what was an IBF title defense for Warrington. The former champion pipped his compatriot to a debatable split decision.

However, the Yorkshireman has since vacated his belt, hoping to chase the other championship fights. Galahad did not appreciate this and gave his take on it.

In a chat with Gareth A Davies on YouTube, Galahad said, “Josh Warrington vacated the title… Yea he may have won the fight that night. But I know in his head he knows he didn’t win the fight, and that’s why he vacated the title.”

With this comment, Galahad showed his honest opinion about Warrington’s decision. However, these comments may affect the former champion as he has set his eyes on bigger things. Therefore, as a prepares for his fight against Mauricio Lara, Warrington will be looking ahead.

Why is Kid Galahad unhappy with Josh Warrington?

The split-decision in 2019 was a highly controversial victory. To date, it is the only loss on Galahad’s record. Moreover, the trash-talk and build-up made things worse for the Brit. However, he picked himself up and was in line to face the ‘Leeds Warrior’ against.

Galahad worked himself back up to the mandatory position, and IBF even ordered the fight between the two. However, this would mean Warrington would have to sacrifice his potential fights against the other champions.
