    Keep underestimating Degale at your perril, they don't give gold medals out for fun. Power, technique and a very awkward style. Since he had his long term injury operated on he's been a different animal.

    When did I say Degale is a bum? I'm a fan of his, and I'm rooting for him to beat Dirrell :good. Gavin on the other hand is 100% bum.

    I'm picking degale. I'm a big degale fan, he's still undefeated, clearly beat groves.

    Nevermind, I misunderstood about Degale. My apologies.

    But Gavin is not a bum either. Watch him against Kell, he's very skilled and awkward. He'll make it a frustrating night for Kell.

    This. Aslong as DeGale keeps his head and stays off the ropes I think he can win this

    Degale has a good style for dirrell if he can back him up, hell get combinations off quicker, i think andre has to be aggressive at the beginning make it his fight. Degale has a lot of tools to make it hard for dirrell.

    Degale comes in at awkward angles and throws unusual combinations like a left uppercut off a left hook. He's also quick and athletic, im hoping he retires Dirrell.

    Just re watched Degales fight against Gonzalez. He's got a good all round game, awkward not bad power and can smother when he needs to. It' might all hinge on what version of Dirrell turns up

    Apparently this is a very close fight. To be honest i have Dirrell as a banker in every one of my accumulaters this month as the bookies have them both at 10/11 and cannot split them. I feel Dirrell is too skillfull for degale and too fast. I also have Tomoki Kameda in a few of my accumulaters but the other banker for the month is Linares against Mitchell as they are also 10/11 each. So guys lump on a double for this month Linares and Dirrell.
