    Great fight right there between two of the top 168 pounders in the world. I think Badou has improved immensely since suffering from his first defeat, and imo should have got the Bute win. James DeGale is a VERY GOOD fighter and will be a very tough opponent. On the fence about who would win though. :xmas2:

    jack is sporting glass, chunky a hammer. jack has nice set of muffs for that glass.

    Too champions stepping up. ward-kovalev jack-degal this could reach epedemic proportions.

    Is a 50/50 sort of fight. Favour Degale but he will have to concentrate all 12 rounds which he has shown weakness to in the past.

    Wow. Haymon and Mayweather actually reached an agreement to make a big fight?

    If anyone has not noticed, Floyd won't sacrifice his bum squad to the Haymon camp since Theophane. Glad he let Badu scrap, but then again Badu is European. Not like Mickey Bey or J'leon Drugs...I mean Love.

    Degale better bring his A game because he's looked crappy recently and struggled with a B-C level fighter. Jack is looking impressive and I like that high guard style, tho to Degale's credit Chunky can attack the body if it's open. I think Jack wins this one. He's more consistent, has better defense, and good counterpunching to capitalize on Degale's mistakes.

    Degale isn't the one getting starched by journeymen.

    Floyd IS Haymon.

    TMT fighters fight under the PBC banner

    yeah im loving this fight. its not under the best circumstances. with jack coming a draw or no contest or watever to bute and then degale didnt look good vs a game medina. no shame in that tho medina can fight.

    im leaning slightly towards degale but as of late jack been improving and keeps looking better

    That's what I'm thinking, DeGale didn't look great against Medina.
