      And Degale and GGG are both not as good on the back foot. I honestly can't name any fighter that fights better going backwards than forward.

      And easy hit, I never seen GGG caught flush on the chin or hurt. So I'll have to disagree until I see him caught with hard clean shots repeatedly. But as far as I seen he keeps those hands up with trading and catches them on his gloves (ex. His fight with Lemule round 4.)
      He knocked out Geale after getting hit square in the face with a clean punch. Geale has no power so he could get away with doing that.

      I saw Curtis Stevens back him up and he just went straight back not doing anything. Murray and Munroe were also able to land on him with repeated punches but they are powder puff hitters.

      GGG has only fought a certain style and level of fighter. Mostly slow plodders with no head or foot movement.

GGG is as easy to hit as he wants to make it, if he decides he doesn't want you to hit him then you will have a hard time hitting him. If GGG decided to fight less aggressively like Ward/Mayweather then he probably would be one of the best defensive fighters out there, but he decides to entertain the public and that usually means he would take a punch here and there to land his own.
      Who the hell is Lajun Simon?

      Oh yeah, I forgot, GGG only gets hit because he wants to be hit.

      Of course

        That's the sort of win that defines HOF careers.

          Degale GGG is a fight for the future AND at 168. I'd rather GGG unify 160 if he can and then go up and take on Degale for hopefully a couple of 168 titles. Could be a big fight in a year or two. Degale dropping down to fight GGG now? meh

            As soon as he said Lajuan Simon.... I was like thats not disproving the opposition factor lool.

            Its easier to look like a better boxer against lesser opposition, I just watched some irish guy called Jono Connor look like Mayweather against some random guy from Honduras.

              Lol this is becoming a circuit act.

              Who outside of Diggler and 2 other weirdos in this forum care about DeGale?

              Not even people in the UK want to see him.

              He wants to fight Chris Eubank Jr too, thats all you need to know.

              Everybody wants some of that GGG fame, we know it already.

              GGG is the face of boxing, the benchmark fighter, a million dollar smile and a wonderful human being.

              DeGale is a boring fighter and has the charisma of a wooden block.

              That clown should move down in weight and prove he can fight at MW.

                golovkin would destroy degale and it would only take a few rounds...at any weight.

                  So does Golovkin

                  Him, Loeffler and Sanchez were talking up a fight with Jr recently.

                  DeGale has actually been very dismissive of Chris Jr. If you read the interview, he's not even sure he can get past Spike O'Sullivan.

                      Pretty much. From my point of view, I have no idea how good he really is.

                      No-one cared about the Lemieux fight either apparently. I mean, 97k buys? The fight still happened though.
