    Did anybody have it for Degale in the Jack fight?

    I know this is an old fight but after rewatching it today I can't see how Jack wouldn't win a UD.

    I had it 115-111 or 114-112 Jack, could’ve been wider as well, Jack clearly won that fight IMO

      It was a close fight....a few rounds were close, and could've went either way. The KD in the 12th sealed it for me. I had Jack winning by 2.

        That was one of those decisions that made me look down and shake my head.
        Jack was way ahead on my card.

          I thought Jack won, If Degale would have won the last round I had it a draw. He did not.

            I thought it was close but pretty clear. Cant remember my exact scoring but i remember that.

            Jack should have won that fight

              It was very close, i think i had it a draw.

              It's easy to see how people think Jack won because he finished the fight the stronger, so that sticks in the memory more but DeGale actually bagged a lot of the early rounds and scored a knockdown of his own too. When i added it up, i had it a draw. I suppose that's just the nature of scoring and the maths of it. one fighter can appear more dominant at times or do more damage but the other fighter can still put rounds in the bag during the fight.

                The scores seemed fair to me if you score the fights by the round. There were a lot of early rounds Degale nicked with his speed and flashiness that I could see the judges giving to Degale even if I disagree.

                The main difference in the fight for me is that the rounds Jack won were pretty clear and dominate. He really beat Degale up towards the end. There could have been a few 10-8 rounds in there for Jack but I haven't seen the fight in a while to be sure.

                So for me a draw or a win for Jack, but no way could you score that one for Degale.

                  I had it a draw. Never understood the 'robbery' cries.

                    Even for me without 10-8 rounds (I don't ever score a round 10-8 without KD) there were too many blocked shots by Jack to give the rounds to Degale. He sure as hell looked a lot flashier but didn't really him him clean with TOO much.
