    Degale isn’t finished, he may be past his best, but if he was shot, he would have lost the Truax rematch like he did the first fight. He actually boxed nicely in parts of that fight. I still think he’ll have too much for Eubank. Eubank will always come up short against opponents above Euro level.
    I hear what you’re saying but degales stamina problems will really hurt him this fight.

      Degale will box the ears off Eubank, he'll stand in front of him and make a fool of him. Eubank has found his level. Degale has one off night and he's over the hill? No way. Eubank is pony. End of story.

          Well time will tell, but I think two things are being massively exaggerated - Degale being shot and having no stamina, and surprisingly to me, how good Eubank is. It’s a year since he was exposed but people seem to still believe in him. His stamina isn’t even that good, when he has ever displayed that? He takes breaks in fights and poses, he always has. It’s not like he’s ever performed like Hatton against Tszue.
          He’s all hype, what Hamed was saying about him is basically true, he’s not good enough for world level.

              Finally someone taking sense. I can’t believe people still think Eubank can do anything above Euro level.

                My thoughts exactly. Eubank is a social media hype job. I doubt he’ll ever even win a world title or box in America, but he was supposedly going to the top. Degale actually boxed well in parts in the Truax rematch and I expect him to be better this time.

                  Eubank is always the house favourite...until the first round anyway.

                    Degale is done and Shane has probably called this right. But BJS,G, Canelo, Jacobs and Andrade all beat Jr.

                      It all depends how Jr has reacted to the Groves defeat, if he’s worked hard over this last year learning and improving and actually listening to people’s advice and not believing his own hype then he totally has the potential to beat Degale at this stage. Degale has always spent a fair amount of time on the ropes during fights, particularly against high volume pressure fighters, I expect this fight to be no different, I expect Degale to control the fight but there will be times when he will have to ride the storm and at this stage in his career it will depend how much he wants it. It’s a tough fight to call, 15 months ago i’d Have said Degale schools him, at present, I’m not too sure! Gut tells me Eubank controversially stops Degale late,on his feet
