Former NRL star turned professional boxer Paul Gallen is talking up his odds ahead of his Wednesday night clash with Lucas ‘Big Daddy’ Browne.

Gal told Mark Levy beyond “a few little niggles here and there”, he’s in good form for the showdown and confident of a win.

“I know I’m well prepared, I know I’ve done … harder work than what he’s done.”

The trash talk isn’t just for the cameras Gal said, accusing Big Daddy of being “jealous” of his sporting career.

“At the moment there’s genuine animosity there, and we want to get in there and hurt each other.”
