    Degale is a slight favourite at 4/6 with Dirrell at 6/5

    I think Dirrell´s style is all wrong for Degale.

    I actually think Degale has a good style for Dirrell, he will keep up with him and pressure him he's not as slick but he would be as mobile and I'd say and is a stronger man too. I think Anthony could beat Degale too with these odds I think Il go with Andre , new level for Degale

    With direll's recent competition it is tough to gauge where he is at so making degale a favorite seems fair

    A more prime version of Dirrell was getting worn down by Arthur Abraham, Dirrell has skills but lacks the mental toughness Degale will stop him

    I think the odds will even themselves out closer to the fight.



    With Degale's recent fights it makes sense he's the favourite but if you put into consideration the fight will be in the US then it might change things come fight night.

    Im a little confused as to how Dirrel is in a title fight after being out of the game for so long and having 3 tune up fights

    the IBF probably has 5 or 6 guys ranked whove done much more in the last 24 months and beaten much better fighters but got leap frogged

    those are probably the British odds.

    In fight the winner would probably be the guy that won the pursebid and got home advantage, wich in this case is Dirrell.
