AFL great Barry Hall returns to the boxing ring to take on exiled former rugby league player Curtis Scott in a heavyweight showdown in Wollongong on July 10.
Now 47, Hall has vowed to make amends for his first-round knockout loss at the hands of Sonny Bill Williams in his last outing just over two years ago.
Scott, 26, is 2-0 after switching to boxing, having not played in the NRL since 2021 after he was convicted of assaulting and threatening his former partner.
