      Can't wait to see who this "big name" will be! He could've unified vs. Benavidez, and not dropped is belt, so that eliminates Benavidez! He could've unified vs. Zurdo, without dropping his belt, so that eliminates Zurdo! Groves is fighting Callum Smith. So who could it be?

          I'm not mad at that! Hopefully it would be @ 168! If it's at a catch-weight, I'll be less interested! Honestly, I would rather see Danny Jacobs fight DeGale or Zurdo @ 168, than see him break up a happy home fighting Derevyanchenko!

            His belt was his ticket to a big fight. Who is going to fight him without a belt? He's not exactly a huge name, and everybody know he loses against the next live body he faces.

              Shows how worthless the IBF title has become if they strip their best champion like GGG, they don’t want stars.

              DeGale looking for a bigger fight and can’t get it as IBF champion, throws their belt in the trash Bowe Style!

              For GGG, everyone talking about the fight with Canelo, nobody talking about IBF belt for him. Jacobs and Dev can’t even agree on a deal with the same manager. IBF really shot themselves in the foot, but did GGG a favor of not getting unmarketable mandos like Wade or Dev

                  Damn it DeGale! I wanna call you a straight up duck, for not fighting Uzcategui, but I’ve witnessed fights that have shown his medal. WTF??? I don’t know what to think, too small for LHW, too big to make MW, he must have some ish on the back burner, has to. What a weird decision. But it is what it is

                    Smart decision by DeGale. His skills are clearly in decline so he might as well try to make as much money as possible before he retires.

                      Degale is not afraid of no Uzcatsguy or whatever the *** his name is, get real.
                      Exactly, if he wants to fight Saunders for more money that's a good business move in my opinion. I'm sure most people would do the exact same thing if they were in his shoes.
