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.

Lololololol

can't believe that this is £20

Don't mind the £20 price looking forward to Joe Joyce vs Bermane Stivern fight aswell.

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 been left to do his own thing for too long and it’s too late now he lacks so many fundamentals. No one even had the heart to tell him his jacket is from the women’s section of river island.

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

I agree with the first half of your post but not the second. He definitely needs a come forward to walk into mid range so he can unleash his flashy combinations. All the highlight reel performances have been against tailor made opponents. He has a great work rate if you let him but you can control that by controlling the range. His punch output against groves and Saunders dramatically reduced because they weren’t standing in front of him to be hit.

I don’t think he can just walk down degale, he’s a terrible come forward fighter, no ring IQ, no jab, footwork and balance not good enough, ends up lunging and over reaching with his punches, he just can’t control the range of a fight.
All degale has to do is fight long and tie him up when he wants a breather.

I agree but Degale’s mindset goes walkies for at least 3 rounds in every fight. He gives every limited fighter hope. He is too long in the tooth to dig deep and too battle worn. He will rest on the ropes as he always does and he will get ambushed. The Degale today is a shadow of himself

Lololololol.... I thought it was Zara!
