James DeGale’s world title clash with Andre Dirrell is expected to be held in America after the latter's team won purse bids for the bout.

The 29-year-old Londoner will battle Dirrell for the vacant IBF super-middleweight belt and promoter Eddie Hearn had hoped to stage the fight at London’s O2 Arena on April 25.

But Hearn was unable to agree terms with Dirrell’s backers, who have since tabled a huge bid of over $3m to stage the bout in America.

$1.5M for a title fight, of course he's happy! I bet he'd fly to Iceland and fight for that kind of money.
