    Comments Thread For: Frank Warren: DeGale Needs a Statement, Show Loss Was a Blip

    JAMES DEGALE VENTURES into away territory in his bid to retrieve his valuable lost property this weekend in Las Vegas and become a two-time world champion. Live and exclusive on BoxNation, Chunky is seeking to avenge a defeat to Caleb Truax that was one of the major boxing shocks of 2017. The 32-year-old DeGale needs to right a lot of wrongs from the December night at the Copper Box if the IBF world super middleweight title belt is to be accompanying him on his journey back to London.

    Degale had alot of tough fights and his injury has slowed him down he was easily beaten by a c level fighter in turax first time out i expect hes cut no corners this time but the years of tough 12 rounders and the bad beaten draw by jack as taken its toll could get a early ko but if it goes the distance favor the c level fighter to retire chunky

      Needs a KO or a shut out.

      Hasn't lasted the 12 rounds all that well for about 5 years now.

      I think he'll get beat again.

      He's had a HARD career.

        No Frank, judging by the comments on here and across the internet, the British public won't be getting behind him, most are willing him to lose.
        I hope he wins, although he may be at the end of his career, hopefully the well isn't empty and he still has something left.
        I find the hate for Degale inexplicable and it's one of the occasions that make me feel like I'm not a 'true Brit', I wouldn't want to be anyway if that's the prevailing national mentality.
        Yes he's always been ****y, but I've never seen him as a bad natured, nasty guy, it's just his personality. Boxers need to have confidence. At least he's taken hard fights, won a world title and fought in America.
        He was the first Brit gold medalist to win a world title, which he won and defended in America. Those achievements at least deserve respect.
        I find Joshua totally boring for instance, and his humility seems so media rehearsed and forced.

          He got iffy decisions against Jack and Porky Medina. That L to Truax was no blip.
