          Degales ego has certainly calmed down in the last few years. Stark contrast to how he was perceived in the Groves fight.

          If James DeGale returns with two World titles he can expect more of this!


          He like whos entered they can't be cheering for me lol.

            I just watched Degale vs Bute and Jack vs Dirrell and i havent really changed my mind about the fight. Same as everyone i think Degale at his best when he is firing is going to be too good for JAck, but when Degale slips and takes rounds off, Jack will take over.

            Gonna be a close fight.

            Im actually maybe leaning a touch towards Jack now though. I like his fundamentals. His inside work is great. He just needs to find a way to keep Degale off his groove. Because once he is it his ability is off the charts. The way he moves and punches in the pocket is beautiful. Jack needs to dominate the centre of the ring behind his jab and push Degale back to the ropes, where his defence is poor. He needs to get very close when Degale moves in and make it rough.

            I think he can do it. Ive voted Degale, but im tentatively changing my pick to Jack.

            Anybody could win on the night

              Difficult to say how much of a benefit Degales new SnC coach is going to be. He could come out and look phenomenal, but i also think a lot of these guys are shysters who dont really know their ****. Especially guys who havent really worked with boxers before (i dont know who Degale is using) as they can be thrown off by the making weight aspect of the sport.

              It would be better if they had a few fights together rather than changing before his most important fight.

                I'm glad this fight card is on Saturday. I won't have to watch that horrible Patriots vs. Texans game.

                  Imo you always have to pick the guy with more upside.

                  Degale on his best day is better than jack on his best day

                  Pick is degale
