    i didnt see any of the fights last night but have seen lots of Degales interviews on youtube. We know hes talented, olympic gold, but hes trying to be a celebrity and acts immature, if he wants to do anything as a pro he will have to change his ways because talent alone is not enough in 12 round fights

    Yeh he was trying to be funny, in the post fight interview. But it seemed forced, not natural.

    Like Prince Naseem Hamed, or Ricky Hatton..etc..

    He hasn't got 0.1% of Naz's charisma.

    yeah jeffries jab was immense, much like sutherlands jab. He looks like he could take your head off with the jab!

    I only got to see the degale fight yesterday and I have to say, that guy is gonna get sparked out very soon if he keeps fighting like that. His opponent caught him a few times when his hands were down. Also that patting on the head crap is dispicable, especially in your first fight!! I dont mind if a boxer has proved himself as the best in the world and has the balls to do that against a top fighter,but to do that against a limited journeyman just shows a lack of class from degale.
    I dont know what the sky pundits were smoking last night, saying that degale will go along way!! absolute joke, he wont get past european level

    Piper basically spunked his trunks over Degale's performance; contrast that with his backhanded compliments for Rogan's efforts later on. What a colossal tosser.
