Charles Conwell vs. Nathaniel Gallimore Stats Comparison and Prediction: Record, Age, Height, Reach, Weight, and Knockout Ratio

April 20 is in a couple of weeks, and it’s Devin Haney vs.Ryan Garcia. But that’s the icing on the cake. The undercard opener in Charles Conwell vs. Nathaniel Gallimore is a mouth-watering fight itself. It has all the ingredients—a title shot opportunity and a chance at redemption. So who will bag the win and start the exciting night with an upturn in fortunes?

Conwell, who recently joined the Golden Boy Promotions and Oscar De La Hoya, is currently the #1 ranked light middleweight fighter for the WBC. While that might justify his caliber as a boxer, it doesn’t tell the recent downside. Meanwhile, Gallimore has epitomized himself as a perfect journeyman. But can he finally break his losing pattern and spoil Conwell’s chances?

Charles Conwell vs. Nathaniel Gallimore: A tale in numbers

Conwell is 26 years old and currently resides in Cleveland, Ohio. Notably, he represented the United States at the 2016 Olympics and has a burning desire to become a world champion. His unblemished record of 18-0 with 13 KOs and a 72.22% KO ratio also tells a similar story. But he has yet to step inside the squared circle since he narrowly edged out Juan Carlos Abreu by a majority decision in November 2022.

Since turning pro in 2017, Conwell has fought no eye-popping opponents, and his resume might leave a lot to be desired. On the other hand, at 34, his rival is a more experienced boxer, having fought 30 fights since turning pro in 2014. The Jamaica-born boxer added 13 wins in his 14 fights, with one draw sandwiched in between.

However, since facing defeat against Virgilijus Stapulionis and rebounding with a seven-win streak, including notable upsets against future unified light middleweight champion Jeison Rosario, his career has come spiraling down as he has been dealt 6 losses in his last 8 bouts. But his record of 22-7-1 with 17 KOs and a 77.27% KO ratio also shed light on his go-for-kill attitude and his brave heart.

As far as the other stats are compared, Charles Conwell comes in at 5′9″/175cm with his reach being 70″/178cm. Meanwhile, his opponent, Nathaniel Gallimore, is taller at 5′11″/180cm with a slight reach advantage of 73″ / 185cm. Both weighed in at 153 and 152 lbs respectively in their last match. This sets up a feast for the fans, who will likely witness carnage inside the ring.

A fest for the fans: explosive undercard fight

What ensured Conwell’s steady and rapid rise? It was his big-hitting, aggressive approach and ability to put on pressure. When De La Hoya signed him up, he also disclosed what separated him. It was his power, ring presence, and Olympic pedigree that prepared him for any pressure situation he might encounter in the ring.

Meanwhile, Gallimore is also a hard hitter and boasts of a fan-friendly style. His experience fighting world-class opponents like Sebastian Fundora and Julian Williams only makes him more dangerous. But is it enough to make him a favorite against a younger and more explosive fighter? Can he pull off another upset that he has had on numerous occasions? Can he do it one more time?

Prediction: Who wins it on April 20?

Golden Boy Promotion wanted Conwell to ease him into the competition after being on the shelf for a year and a half. So, they have set up a tune-in fight for him against Gallimore, who is coming off a KO loss against Serhii Bohachuk. While Conwell is not tuned up well and is reeling from ring rust, Gallimore must be feeling pressure and, as a result, may be under-confident.

That’s precisely the reason the fight has been fixed. It is to ensure Conwell sharpens his skills and is in an ideal position to challenge for the belt next against Vergil Ortiz Jr., who is also under the same banner as him. While Conwell remains a logical pick, because of his young age, skills, and power, you can never discard the fighter, who has proved the fans wrong again and again by pulling off some major upsets. Gallimore will always have a chance, however slim it is, because of his experience and the compatibility of fighting styles.
