    even a 1st round KO proves nothing.

    Sutherland doing as he wants and going through the repetoire, but nothing coming back.

    This guy has a good defence and looks like he could do better if he REALLY wanted to, or had the heart to.

    I don't think there is a thing DeGale can do better than Sutherland. He can slap better. Technically Sutherland is on another level. His jab is heavy, his body work, everything is better.

    DeGale is faster and throws better combinations, also has better footwork.

    This is a methodical beatdown.

    This guy ain't that easy to break down like everybody thought. People were way too harsh on DeGale, considering he's got a completely different style to Sutherland and even Sutherland isn't blowing him out of the water straight away.

    Speed is talent not skill or technique. His footwork isn't better, nor are his combos.

    DeGale is more of a natural counterpuncher. Whereas Sutherland tends not to throw back unless he's coming forward and is more open to a counter himself.

    it was a good performance but you should be fighting this guy in your 3rd fight if your 27 and supposed to be world class.
