      Most rounds mohoumadi really struggled to land despite throwing much more and having degale backed onto the ropes. Degale squares up a little too much and needs to work on smothering his opponent's strong hand on the inside but he really didn't get caught as much as the commentators were making out and certainly not cleanly until the last third of the fight. Mohoumadi won maybe 4 rounds at most.

      Degale has only had 1 fight since october 2011 and it's only his 14th fight. This wasn't bad for degale.

        We have known this since the Olympics. His medal was gifted to him. He barely threw a punch the entire games, just held onto everyone for dear life.

          One of the scores was 119-109, you've got to be kidding me. It was a pretty close fight and the Frenchman showed a good performance. Home decision.

            I was very disapointed with Degale, too predictable and bad tactically, made it hard for himself. Threw sparadically, walked to the ropes, laid on the ropes where his opponent wanted him and took punishment, got of the ropes after a minute walked straight back to the ropes again.
            He basically got bullied and rough housed and in reality sc****d the win.

                I dont understand the hate for this performance?

                He came up against a strong motivated fighter who piled on the pressure, exactly the opposite of what you want when you have been inactive. Most of the fight i thought he looked tired more than anything, but when he did get some energy and move to the centre of the ring he quite easily out boxed the frenchman. He also hurt mohoumadi more than he was hurt himself. It was a close hard scrap which i believe he came through quite comfortably by the end.

                I think its good to see a fighter matched this tough early in his career and hopefully we can see him fight more often from now on!

                  degale looks decent when he lets his hands go but he'll never amount to anything on the world stage.

                    Dude needs to learn how to throw a proper punch first. If not, sit down on those slaps a little, otherwise he wont be able to gain no respect and therefore no control in a round.
                    Degale reminds me of calzaghe in a lot of ways, although calzaghe really ***** slapped his opponents to death.

                      Degale reminds me of Khan a lot. Fast, speedy, but lacks boxing IQ and some power. When he attacked, he looked good, but he often would rest on the ropes... and his footwork let people get straight to him...
