Paul Gallen will fight former UFC headliner and fellow Sydneysider Mark ‘The Super Samoan’ Hunt at Bankwest Stadium in December which will see Tim Tszyu main event.

The event has been confirmed by the NSW Government.

Gallen has opted against arm surgery and will instead box one of the best knockout merchants in the world just around the corner from where he grew up in Wentworthville.

Hunt lives just down the road in the Macarthur area.

The fight will be shown on Main Event.
