Mark Hunt lands, Paul Gallen wobbles, and somehow the former rugby league star keeps finding a way back into the exchange. Their 2020 boxing meeting is back as a full replay, just as Gallen prepares to face another heavyweight with an NRL background, Nelson Asofa-Solomona.

FOX SPORTS AUSTRALIA's upload has drawn more than 160,000 views before its first day is over, far beyond the channel's usual first-day audience for regular videos. It sits alongside the Gallen-Asofa-Solomona press conference and weigh-ins, but this trip into the archive has attracted considerably more views than either.

At Bankwest Stadium in Sydney, Hunt initially occupies the centre of the ring while Gallen moves around him. The danger becomes unmistakable in the second round: Hunt's heavy punches leave Gallen unsteady, forcing him to clinch and get through it.

Gallen then makes the exchanges closer and busier, working with hooks, uppercuts and body shots as Hunt begins to tire. Another huge right hand in the fifth round puts his resilience under examination again. "Paul Gallen hurt badly again, but stayed up," commentator Ben Damon says.

The comments return to Gallen's durability and the openings Hunt created. There is also a lighter broadcast detail: Jeff Fenech's repeated use of Hunt's full name has caught a viewer's ear amid all those heavy punches.
