Comments Thread For: Hearn: DeGale-Dirrell Will Land in Mid To Late May

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Olympic gold medal winner James DeGale (20-1, 14KOs) will get a solid return date shortly, according to his promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Sport. DeGale is waiting for a finalized date for his ordered fight with Andre Dirrell (24-1, 16KOs).

The two boxers will fight for the vacant IBF super middleweight title, which Carl Froch vacated earlier this year. The match went to a purse bid, which was won by Warriors Boxing on behalf of Al Haymon, who is Dirrell's manager.

There's a lot of fights happening in May.

Leo Santa Cruz said he's back in May also. Could they fight on the same card?

DeGale/Dirrell is an east coast match and Leo is most likely West Coast or Texas.

Khan is fighting May 23rd.

There's a PBC on Sp1ke card May 29 Friday.

I wish DeGale got a chance to fight Froch.

Good fight. Dirrell takes it me thinks.
