        I wish the sanctioning bodies would go back to barring immediate rematches.

          100% sure DeGale wins the rematch quite convincingly maybe even by KO. He's smart to immediately rematch Truax. It was ring rust and he now knows where he is in regards to getting back to where he was.

            I thought he didn't have a rematch clause. I know he has been hit in the head before the interview but he wasn't too sure he had one. But i guess he had Al Haymon....................Thanks Al

              DeGale has a tendency to get into wars, he is not a fighter, he is a slick boxer when he wants to be.

              One of those boxers who makes life difficult for himself. Degale should win rematch providing he sticks to the game plan

                Exactly, he didn't look like he wanted it any more, he's been in several wars now and it looked like the tank was empty. Hope he doesn't get hurt, I've enjoyed watching him fight, but maybe he's doing what so many fighters do and going for one more bout than he should.

                  Warren confirmed it not long after I think.

                    Warren wasn't his promoter. So not sure if Warren would have any clue.
