The celebrity boxing trend is not limited to the United States. This week in Australia we have former interim UFC heavyweight title contender Mark Hunt set to box retired rugby league player Paul Gallen.
And, if their antics are to be believed, there is plenty of bad blood involved in this one. Yesterday, at the official weigh-ins for the event, Hunt shoved Gallen off the scales. There were some attempts to hold Hunt back, but he shucked them off and threw a couple of punches at Gallen. The pair were eventually separated.
Check out what happened below:
More angles, and interviews with both Hunt and Gallen, are provided here by Sporting News Australia:
Hunt and Gallen will be fighting on the undercard of an event that sees Tim Tszyu fight Bowyn Morgan in the headliner.
