Rugby league football legend Paul Gallen (10-0-1, 5 KOs), Australia’s biggest pay-per-view boxing attraction, blasted former WBA heavyweight champion Lucas “Big Daddy” Browne (29-2, 25 KOs), whom he will face on April 21 at the Wollongong Entertainment Centre, NSW, Australia on Foxtel Main Event Pay-Per-View.
“He’s getting $130,000 and he’s not worth $20,000,” Gallen told Wide World of Sports. “People can say what they want about what he’s achieved or what he hasn’t achieved, but it comes down to the eyes that watch it. That’s what it comes down to. And he’s virtually irrelevant. That’s why he’s not getting this sort of money for fights. That’s just fact.”
130K or 20K, I don’t think it makes a difference. When you are a boxer on your way down getting that type of money, it is time to start looking for a new line of work. Maybe he can look for a security job at a casino.
No offense to anyone, but I thought Browne is pretty much out of the game period. Guess not! Browne’s style as a fighter was rather robotic, predictable, and his balance/coordination were terrible. He needed to focus more on his basics (i.e., balance, stamina) first hand before the boxing training should have started.
is Brown now that bad, that he cant beat this guy?
crazy….
I am going to laugh my ass off if Browne beats this over rated hype job! This clown flatters himself way too much and anyone who jumps on this clowns bandwagon is a delusional fool just like Gallen.
Never heard of this guy. At least Browne has been around and in the ring with good fighters. I looked up gallen’s record on boxrec.com and he’s fought absolutely no one worth mentioning. Don’t care about either of them but I hope Browne puts him down.
