Gallen: “I said to myself all day and to my team that I’d knock him out in the first round,” said unbeaten heavyweight
Paul Gallen (11-0-1, 6 KOs) who demolished former WBA heavyweight champion Lucas “Big Daddy” Browne (29-3, 25 KOs) on Wednesday night.
“It’s amazing what you can do when you set your mind to it. I tore my bicep ten weeks out from the fight so it’s amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it.
“It’s part of boxing part of the promotion, me and Lucas genuinely meant it but when you talk to the bloke away from the cameras he’s not such a bad guy, which pains me to say now.
“I’m sure we’ll probably have a beer together one day but I’m really happy with that performance. To prove it to yourself and do against a guy like that, I’m very happy.”
Pre-FightGallen: "Maybe some of the supplements over the years are starting to take effect. My missus actually saw it and said, ‘Give him a bra’.
“I said, ‘Darling, he’s probably too big for you, those b*tch t***’. So, I’m a little bit concerned about that. We’ve spoken about testing.”
Gallen also described Browne’s WBA heavyweight world title as a “reserve grade” world title.

Browne: “I don’t really like what he says most of the time in regards to me,” Browne said. “Calling me a bum and saying he’s got better things to do at the end of the year, it does sort of rub me the wrong way considering I’m the best heavyweight we’ve had in Australia.”
