Arrogant waster looked past him to Groves/Eubank Jr etc. And he's never, ever been good enough to be able to have an off night at that level.

Delighted that wasn't a "home" decision, absolutely delighted.

Absolutely shot mate, he's finished.

He looked awful DeGale tonight. No rhythm in his boxing, his reflexes weren’t there. Punches were wild, didn’t land enough punches and couldn’t seem to get going. Correct decision and thought DeGale was behind by about 2 rounds.

He he he. Not been a fan of Degale since the build up to the Groves fight.

Shame this at least delays the big UK clashes and a potential rematch with Badou Jack.

Badou Jack would destroy him at light heavyweight. I don’t think him moving up to light heavy would be a bad decision for a fight or two but would he be able to handle the big punches from them? Shame it messes up fights against a Groves, Eubank and Smith.

Big swifty fan Bry?

Lomo mate. Never seen anything like it.

I’m not a Uber boxing fan. And will admit to following the trend, never followed all the divisions but a fighter like Hi Tech comes one a lifetime

I agree, but that’s apparently what he wanted.


Anyway, enough of that nonsense, can’t wait for later.

You’ll be in for a treat tonight then. Rigondeux is on par with him. Both elite and masters in the amateurs and both carried it on to the pros.

Was gonna go beering but opted against, up have my beer and bleach tomorrow, gonna try get couple of hours kip, set the alarm for 4, not missing this live.

Rigo for the shock, on points.

To be fair this is the closest match up in any big fight for years, along with Canelo vs GGG.

Two fighters who have a genuinely claim to be top 5 pound for pound, and both technically fantastic, although different.

Think Lomachenko decision. But for me the big point here is that neither have, at least in the pros, fought anyone on their level yet*. Who knows if one of them will buckle?




*Lomachenko’s “loss” was bollocks.
