    it's an unimpressive fight. The guy has a 0.500 record with no ko power.

    he's 6'3 and a decent size but it's still another nothing fight which degale should dominated if he's any good.

    Another blow for Morrison then, could have been his last chance.

    Pushed Kenny Anderson all the way and was unlucky not get at least a draw.

    Only been stopped twice, I think there could have been a lot worse.

    Very good fight for DeGale. King can be an handful and will be a good test at this stage of DeGales career.


    Barrie Jones is very decent.

    To be fair Kenny Anderson had him away in the 2 or 3rd, then got badly injured (broken rib), I think King was stopped in his last fight if I remember.

    King was totally gone at one point in that fight with Kenny but was still allowed to continue. My prediction is that Degale won't even have King in half the trouble but will be gifted a premature stoppage win! Just a gut feeling fellas.:bbb

    Why has Morrison pulled out again?

    Scottish fighters seem to pull out of fights constantly.:-(

    I thought the fight should have been stopped at one point King was being kept up by the ropes, there is no doubt had Kenny not broken his rib he would have stopped him. No doubt Degale will get a typical SN stoppage win, this will be a crap fight all they both wont to do is run.

    I agree, if it wasn't for Kenny having to fight with a broken rib he would have got the stoppage!
    Anderson is an under-rated prospect..maybe because of that fight with King. I remember him brutalising guys in the amateurs.:bbb
