Jack was a flash knock down

Well that's debatable. Dirrell and Brandon Gonzales at Wembley definitely were not.

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

I will bet £10 on Eubank . If I lose I pay you. If I win you don’t pay. That’s how confident I am. I only like taking bookies money not individuals

Haha you're on. Sort out the details nearer the time.
So you actually think Eubank can win a world title?

I hope DeGale has enough in the tank to bust up Jr!!! I see DeGale going at it as a chess match and Eubank just swinging for the fences. I just can’t see it any other way

Just waiting for the title of the video to be "BEEF! HEATED! INTENSE!"

Lmfaoooooo....... this is true

Not at all . Especially not at 168.He is better off moving down to 160 and at least being the bigger man. With the right trainer he has the physical attributes to be good, not great

He's 30 this year. He's barely euro level imo. You can't win at world level without good fundamentals and a decent boxing brain. You can't quickly learn those and reverse ingrained bad habits at his age either, even if he wasn't too arrogant to realize his limitations and try.
Everyone at world level is at least solid in all departments, and excellent in many.
Andrade, Saunders, Charlo, Jacobs, GGG at middleweight, plus others, are levels above him.
Any time he steps up, he'll lose. Chin and toughness aren't enough.
Only way I could ever see him win a title at any weight is if he managed to cherry pick a very weak titlist, similar to how Fielding won one in Germany. That's a very big if.

He did have the IBO ...... I know

Agreed.....

Don’t even think about claiming that as a proper belt!
I’m talking about one of the four main governing bodies.
The guy he beat for the IBO just got beat by Buatsi in the first round btw.
