James Degale getting £2 million vs Lucian Bute

[MoneyKing]

He said in an interview its 750 here or 2 million over there.

Degale stays focused and dedicated he's going to make ALOT of money

Don't forget he was fighting in shopping centres, but did have a nasty hip injury though.

After Bute he should fight Badou Jack and get the other belt.

If he wins, he'll wait to see the result of Murray-Abraham. If Murray wins, it sets up a big domestic unification.

that's probably around 3 million US. that's getting into the stratosphere where you can't figt on american networks any longer. they won't pay that much for one fight [3 million to degal,e and got knows what else for an opponent like bute.]

i ain't mad. dude beat andre dirrell, and now he's getting paid.

[New England]

If he wins, he'll wait to see the result of Murray-Abraham. If Murray wins, it sets up a big domestic unification.

exactly. chunky won a gold medal in beijing. there's a built in recognition of that, particularly in a country like england, where thye, you know, care about things that happen internationally.

From now on Degale will be in BIG fights - i'll be keeping a close eye on his fights & progression it should be very entertaining.

Poor old George Groves thinking he's the A-side - personally I think its downhill for Groves from here on out. He was never going to be Badou Jack - too thin/drained no power.

On another forum they were talking about Booth/Haye/Groves falling out and breaking up. I remember Degale saying on Soccer AM years ago saying that 'Hayemaker Don't Care About George Groves' - so David Haye & James Degale having secret meetings behind Groves back, but its ok we all know Haye is fake.
