Comments Thread For: DeGale Vows To Punish Eubank Jr. For Sparring Session Claims

I back DeGale to win the fight but he aint punishing nobody

The Eubank faith is just amazing. Just shows you what a name can do. He clearly isnt at this level yet the media always seem to push him as if he were elite. Hes fit, with good stamina but hes not a good boxer. Degale boxes hes ears off.

Degale looks finished after being a 'decent' world champion .Jr. has been beaten on the two occasions he's stepped up..... .OK. match up but at world level proves very little. Low level for a PPV really.

If degale has anything left in the tank then yes.

Exactly.

His best win was either a 40 year old Abrahams or Spike O'Sullivan.

Not exactly elite level or anywhere near.

If Caleb Traux can bloody up and beat Degale, then Junior has more than enough of a shot

I think the Groves that beat him was shot. A shot Degale probably still outboxes him too dont you think?

Yeah, and hes win over Yildrim was hyped like hed beaten Golovkin or Canelo. Hes got heart but very limited, although hes deluded too. He thinks he beat Groves.

Eubank Jnr by stoppage. I would be VERY surprised if degayle wins.

He can't suddenly learn to box to high level standard in less than a year though. It takes years of practice to become a skilled boxer, and he skipped it and thought he could get by on instagram videos. If it was that easy to get good in a year, everyone would do it.
I don't agree he can crack either - he couldn't even hurt Groves when Groves only had one arm - compare that to what Smith and Froch did to him.

Did he even land anything flush on Groves? A bull has power in spades, but generally he can't get near the matador to prove it. Time can skew memory a bit, but all I remember was Eubank swinging and missing for 12 rounds while Groves took him to school. Other than the tangle that dislocated his shoulder at the end, I can't remember Groves losing control of the fight at all.
