How do you see the rematch going in Vegas?

 

I genuinely don’t know. Truax isn’t the best but is Degale finished? Genuinely have 0 idea how this is going to go. Interesting to see how the bookies price it up.

 

I see it going the same as the first fight- maybe even Truax by stoppage.

 

DeGale wins and wins well.

I think we've seen the best we are going to see from DeGale, I don't think he will be a new and improved version.

But I believe he will be motivated and have a point to prove and will box his way to a solid decision.

 

Degale points, he has no pop in his shots no more. Maybe the shoulder surgery?

 

The biggest must-win fight I can remember for a while involving a British fighter. The calibre of opponent means anything other than a clear win for Degale is the end of the road. I'd like to see him win, but he was so stunningly bad in the first fight I'd not put money on it. Truax didn't pinch the fight by a point, he beat James up quite badly.

 

Degale doesn't have enough power to force the stoppage but should win on points

 

Degale always sits in the ropes and leys people unload. If he doesnt improve that then he loses again

 

This is how I feel about it. Is the shoulder proper goosed or was it psychological that he couldn’t throw the jab properly. Either way, if his jab is poor then Truax, as average as he his, will go to town on him.

Thing is though mate, he had a point to prove in his last fight. The big homecoming and all that. All the motivation he needed was there. I don’t think he lacked it to be honest. He took an absolute hammering and to his credit, he didn’t fold...but he couldn’t box his way out of it.

Hopefully it was just a blip.

 

Very true.

 

Am not the biggest degale fan and he might not look it but his as tough as they come he was taking a beating off truax and he took it when others might have quit his not the same fighter but I hope he wins and has a big fight at home he deserves that at least imo he should be able to get his title back I think truax fought out of his skin and can't do any better where degale can be better but will he be better is the question

 

Degale wins the rematch on points.

He took Truax too lightly in the first fight and wasnt fully recovered from the injury

 

Degale looks like Big Badou has taken his mojo.war after war has done him in.......would not be surprised if Truax wins again

 

I might bet on traux for this...not often a fighter wins as conclusively as that and loses the rematch...

 

5/1 Truax. Degale is 1/5, 1/7, 1/9
