Didn't like the showboating. Especially in his hometown/area. Caleb had a good game plan, he wasn't going to out box him. But make in a dogfight. That he did and was rewarded.

The IBF doesn't have their mandatory set, so we'll likely see a rematch between Truax and Degale (in the contract or not, both guys are with Haymon so the deal is there to be made), Benevidez has the WBC belt (also with Haymon).

Horn did it, Sadam Ali did it, Truax did it
as well as many others throughout history
ALWAYS be 100% ready, NEVER underestimate your opponent
Mayweather deserves more props
only time I really saw Mayweather underestimate anyone was Maidana in the 1st fight

As always fights are won in the ring and not on paper.
Always love it when an underdog wins does against all odds.
Respect to Caleb...and the refs who scored the fight.

I wasnt going to watch this but it got uploaded on YT pretty quickly, I scanned through some of the rounds and started to see DeGale get his arse handed to him LOL
What was he saying? Eubank SR was a **** fighter? Yeah he never lost to a bum and while almost shot, competed against one of the best cruiserweights on the planet.
DeGale deserves this loss, too arrogant, not fit enough and too lazy.

I’ve said from day one DeGale is one of the most overrated fighter’s this country has ever produced, he’s a good athlete, with good handspeed but this notion that he is some sort of amazingly gifted/skilled fighter is ridiculous. His defence and footwork have always been **** average. Being unorthodox does not equate to being technically skilled. Danny Jacobs is a well schooled, decently skilled fighter look what he did to Truax.
Degale’s lack of fundamentals were once again exposed tonight the same way they were against: Groves, Porky, Jack etc.
Cong**** to Truax although I expect his reign to be very short.
