lol, Macklin putting down the crowd, saying they don't understand boxing and can't see the brilliant work Degale was doing, that everything Medina threw landed on the arms. Fking wanker.
While that isn't incorrect (accuracy) Medina looked like he landed significantly more punches than given credit for. Not just that, but Medina was working his body badly. There were times where Degale's entire offense and movement stopped and he would favor his right side and was visibly uncomfortable. There were also a few shots in between that stunned and made Degale lose his footingbut because he landed a jab all you heard was how he landed a jab in the exchange without mentioning how he just got crushed with a left hook.
Degale might have been more accurate but with that volume (of power punches) Medina needs to be barely accurate to match Degale's work.
Degale was literally at times fully disengaging and giving him his back. Being hit with body shots that made him turn his back and run. I would normally pick the more accurate fighter but not when the other guy seems to have you anguishing from the second round on
Degale was flashier but clearly not as effective in my opinion. I would rather have been Medina in almost every single round.
I thought Medina was doing good work on the inside for most of the fight.
