Comments Thread For: Photos: DeGale, Eubank Jr. Get Heated During ITV Taping

[alexguiness]

He has a great work rate, good stamina and a good chin. His footwork is pretty laboured and a lack of a jab exposes him. He needs a fighter like GGG who comes forward relentlessly to look good.

Degale is a much better boxer than him but he loves taking a breather on those ropes and I think Eubank will clobber him with uppercuts. Admittedly the first 5 rounds Degale will make him look like a fool.

Groves hits like a mule and hit Eubank for fun and he still kept coming forward. Was never deterred. Degale doesn’t have the fire power or the legs to keep Eubank of him

Eubank has no other option than to keep coming forward because he is very limited in terms of skill.

Following a boxer around the ring like a puppy eating jabs and right hands all night is not an indication of courage...its an indication of ignorance and arrogance.

So you think Eubank will win? I disagree. Everyone says Truax was ****, but he was a solid world level contender. He was also a very big strong super middle. He outweighed Degale by nearly 10 pounds on the night of the rematch.
Eubank is a small super middle. He only left middleweight because of the higher amount of hard fights and potential losses.
Degale isn't a knock out puncher, but he's deceptively heavy handed.
Remember he dropped Dirrell and Jack. He isn't feather fisted at world level.
I'm happy to bet on this fight if you fancy it.

So you have Eubank by knockout also?

No, I think it will be a decision for Degale.

Closer than the Groves fight but more decisive then the BJS fight.

Eubanks only looks good against low quality opposition and has done nothing to improve himself as a boxer.

Degale maybe past prime but his pedigree cannot be questioned, its his fight to lose.

Even if I didn’t fancy the bet the fact that you are challenging me to bet I can not say no.lol

Damn I’ve just looked at the odds Chris Eubank is favourite. How much?

He will lose but I agree with your assessment. However I believe the fight will be fought at a pace Degale is not used to fighting and he will be found out. Those sloppy punches won’t keep Eubank of him

[Buggy bear]

Is Eubank limited ?... yes

Is degale battle weary ?....I think so

Can Eubank out box him ?.. no

Has degale got a disciplined class boxing performance in him ?.. with the rest and rejuvenation I think he has, attritional experienced discipline is the key ..

Haha not big money, I'm confident in Degale but I've got bills to pay! Cheeky tenner? Or a score?

Just remember Degale put Jack down, and Groves couldn't do that. Like I said, Degale can punch. Otherwise people would just walk through him.
Eubank wasn't undeterred by Groves's power either. He tasted it in the first round and was reluctant to press after that. He's got a good chin, but that doesn't mean you can keep walking forward whilst being hit all night.

Jack was a flash knock down
