    Paul Gallen claims Sonny Bill Williams missed an opportunity to strike during their boxing bout in Sydney

    Paul Gallen claims Sonny Bill Williams missed an opportunity to strike during their boxing bout in Sydney


    Gallen picked up the win by split decision, with a key moment taking place in the seventh round when Williams was deducted a point for continuously holding his opponent.

    The former Kangaroo says his foe seemed to find an answer in the second round with a flurry of uppercuts, but failed to capitalise.
