    Not sure on this.
    Hall was a boxer before AFL which might help and surely has a longer reach.
    Last time I saw a AFL vs NRL boxing match it was Mal Meninga vs Mark Jacko Jackson. Meninga made mincemeat outa Jacko.
    I'd like to see Hall smash Gallen though.

    Hopefully some entrainment in it, I don't go much on either of them so I don't care who wins as long as they get into it and it's not a circus, both are tough bastards, Hall has to have a bit of an advantage you would think but Gallen is a persistent bugga.

    Going for Hall ... be good if he beat Gallen slowly. If he did that, we’d make him an honorary Qld’er!

    if Hall doesn't throw plenty of jabs to keep Gallen at bay, Hall will get knocked out.
    Gallen called Hall " noodles " after he wanted 2 minute rounds, fckn funny as.

    I wish they would do these boxing matches with all the crazy leaders of different nations. No shortage of the mad cnuts.
    We already know the footy guys are/or were tough, whoever wins this one.
    Tony Abbott once threatened to shirtfront Putin, I'd like to see that but would be surprised if Putin wouldn'ta decked old Tony.

    Hall has been out of professional sport for a long time. And when he played he was never an endurance player or ran far from the 50m arc. On the other hand Gallen was playing at the elite level of professional sport right up until now and playing big minutes in the middle. His fitness and endurance base would  be so much greater and hall's training loads over a short-medium term, no matter how intensive, couldn't catch up (and then throw in the extra age of hall too). That's why he needed shorter rounds

    Dunno - Abbott is very fit and boxed at Oxford in his younger day. Putin be relying on getting close enough to get him on the ground. 
    Being a Russian bastard, though, Putin would probably poison Abbott’s breakfast to be sure of the win.

    This thread seems to be going longer and is more entertaining than the fight.
    Except for Steelos contribution. He obviously on weekend release.
