Gallen shocked the bookies, and more than a few fight fans, on Wednesday night when he won a unanimous points decision win over cult KO legend Hunt, despite being rocked in both the second and fourth rounds with an overhand right and left hook respectively.

Live Nation To Take Over WOMAD NZ?
Live Nation may be the new producer of WOMAD New Zealand. On Nov. 30 the Taranaki Arts Festival Trust (TAFT) pulled out after 20 years, and after extending the partnership in 2018 with the festival’s UK-based parent company for a further ten years.
TAFT chief executive Suzanne Porter cited bankruptcy concerns if a sudden COVID outbreak caused a close-down. She said, “Any cancellation from the beginning of March through to the week of presenting WOMAD would have seen a risk of between NZ$2.8 – NZ$3.5 million ($1.97 million – $2.46 million). The risk is with Taft not with our UK partners to cover this loss.”
