Badou Jack vs Lucien Bute & James Degale vs Rogelio Medina Apr 30th

[Beercules]

People might not like Jack vs bute but its definitely a better fight than Chavez Jr... He is not a serious contender. Just lives of his dads name and being a friggin cruiser who can/could drain to 160-168...he gets beat by every guy @ 175 n has done nothing @ 68


Bute is a former champion.... He has only lost to the best 68ers around and is serious about his career unlike Chavez


Its a good cross roads fight...can Jack further his career and establish himself as an elite 68er or is this bute last hurrah.


I'm actually looking forward to it...if chunky gets by his mando....Jack vs degale settles who is the #1 68er

The ring has Abraham # 1...IMO he hasn't faced the comp or won enough of his big fights to be #1 @ 68

Ramirez will beat Abraham. Pretty sure of it

I haven't seen enough of Ramirez about to check him out


Abraham is not what he was at 160


Imagine if we could've got GGG vs Abraham closer to Abrahams prime....explosives, screw fireworks

Bute getting another shot at a title? this bum is one of the luckiest men in boxing. Let me guess the venue is going to be in Canada? on the flip side one of the few euros I like ' Chunky' is going to put on a show - I hope he brings his sister.

DeGale was lucky to get the nod over Bute.

Lets see if Badou Jack can continue

Bute does have those, quick hands that seem to hurt n Badou is not all that great, but he should win this easy

DeGale was lucky to get the nod over Bute.

you're nuts.

[M Bison]

you're nuts.

DeGale slapping shots in and not landing
Omg so great...

DeGale face at the end of the fight told the full story.

Looking at the boxers face isn't how you judge a fight

Me too, I think it's a good match up. I had Groves just about winning the Jack fight, I think the early knockdown effected the judges in that fight, plus the home advantage. But Jack just wasn't active enough for me, Groves was busier throughout the fight. Although, I'll admit I only saw it once, live, so really need a second viewing to have a more assured perspective.

Good fights.
Has Jack fought a southpaw as a pro? I can't think of one and I feel Bute looked very good even in defeat against DeGale. Best I've seen him.
Wouldn't be surprised if Bute pulled this one off.

I think Bute's performance against DeGale earned him another chance. That's almost definitely a better fight than Jack/Chavez Jr. is.
