    Easily, really ? I don't see how you can say that with any degree of certainty,

    I have no dog in this fight, just looking forward to a solid tactical affair from two guys who can both punch and appear to be no pushovers, whilst I'd say the winner is the no.1 in the division they're not really top pound for pound fighters though I suppose if one destroys the other a case could be made if you've the likes of Frampton in the top ten, I mean lets be honest both would outpoint Froch but against the 168 Ward they wouldn't take more than a two rounds then again that's no disgrace losing to one of the best boxers if not the best in the world right now.

      I can see him taking this fight inside and doing a number on Jack another part of me thinks its DeGale and he will make hard work of what could be a rather easy night.

      I think he might stop Jack quite early if he's switched on but too many times he lets an opponent off the hook and ease their way back in.

      Such an inconsistent fighter.
      You feel he might struggle he shines. You think he should win easy he ends up going life & death with guys he damn well shouldn't be.
      He looks in great shape though hopefully its indicator of him about to put it all together.
      100% accurate. I do hope it will change, I always had the impression he gassed out

        Lets go champ! the Brits finally have some elite talent unfortunately they don't appreciate you baby...its ok tho I see you doing big things in America where you belong with real talent...stop by Shannon 'The Cannon' Crib and get that motivation...not that you need it because its going to be easy work ; time to show them levels -- Porky Medina just didnt do nothing for you...but this is a big one and they gone see tha slickness!!! that defense alone is winning you the fight baby!!!

          the only way degale loses is if he gives it to jack.

          by that i mean degale has a habit of losing focus and switching off, gassing out.

          If he didnt have those problems there would be no question about whether jack will win.
          The skillsets are vastly different here guys.
          Is jack improved? yes.
          I still dont see how this is a close fight regardless. This is about level's, and jack aient on degales level.
          Biggest fight of degales career and i don't think we will see any lack of focus/gassing from degale, i think we'll see a statement about who's the best 168'er on the planet.
          Degale by TKO after jack get's up twice from being dropped.

              DeGale should have this one in the bag unless the judges use the middle rounds, where he is normally lazy, as an excuse to override all the other rounds he will win lol

                By that rationale we're refusing to credit Jack if he wins right ?

                I hope we do see a statement, I would love to have a clear no.1 in the division the winner against Zurdo too though I doubt very much Arum will be eager to have either face his new Mexi star, given Arum's recent statement on 'unifications aren't really going to be happening in this ecominc climate' in regards to him allowing Parker to face Wilder or Joshua.

                As I sad I slightly lean towards DeGale but I feel both these guys are very evenly matched, kudos to the winner either way.
