    What's this dude's legacy? Getting a ton of questionable decisions? When did he ever really look "good" against someone solid?

      I used to really dislike Degale, he always came across as deluded and arrogant early in his career...much like Eubank does now!

      I have warmed up a little to him lately, he is more grounded and humble from what I have seen.

      Injuries aside, he is a superior boxer to Eubank and has mixed it up with Groves, Jack, Dirrel and Bute all of which are levels above Eubank.

      Degale is more than capable of beating Eubank in the same way Groves did, I believe it will be closer than the Groves fight but still at UD in Degales favour.

      Just take a really close look at Eubanks resume, it is VERY weak upon scrutiny.

        The words Legacy and DeGale in the same sentence is an oxymoron.

          Haha! My mistake however, it won’t tarnish my legacy.

              If you actually watch the Bute fight, he fought well. That was defending his title in Bute's home City. He fought pretty well in the Jack fight too.

                A bum? Wtf? He's a former champion who won and defended his IBF title in the US and Canada you ****ing idiot.
                If Degales a 'bum', Eubank is a ****ing journeyman.

                  He lost the Groves fight by one round on two judges cards, the other judge gave it a draw. They were still both up and comers then. He then went on to win his world title two years before Groves, and did it in America against Dirrell.

Then he lost and the excuses came, the injury crap etc. He will lose to Eubank Jr then the excuses will come probably injury base. Degale is a Legend in his own mind his been a average Champ no more than that. My prediction Eubank Jr stops him anytime after round 6 or his team throws the towel in, then hopefully he disappears and takes Saunders with him.

                    Eubank Jr is ****, he'll lose after all his talk, same as against Groves.

                      He confuses legacy for timing. He believed he was as good as the hype back when he could be a draw. He proved to be a joke and as many overhype jobs a coward when it comes to facing better opponents. Another free skater in the era of false salesmanship insted of true toughness.
