    I could see a judge having it 3-3 to be honest

    There are two MEN in that ring, great fight. I think Bute got hurt in that one though. I give it two more rounds and it gets ugly for Lucien. 4-2 Degale.

    Degale needs to keep standing his ground. Very tough to win off the back foot on the road when the home fighter is more active

    Bute will cave in soon. Degale will get the KO

    Round 6

    Bute is stalking and probing with the right jab, seeking a landing strip for his left uppercut. DeGale is jumping in and flurrying on the body up the middle and then drifting diagonally out of the pocket and to the right while landing an overhand left. Bute is waiting on DeGale now, looking to counter. DeGale is moving too much, smacking Bute on the lower jaw with long right hooks.

    10-9 DeGale

    59-55 DeGale

    All I know is Ward and Froch easily beat DeGale.

    Bute used have a nice uppercut himself. He would throw to the body and head, but he seemed to have abandoned it over the years.

    Round 7

    DeGale is switching his stance every few steps. Right hand leads hurt Bute. DeGale is put on the ropes as Bute starts drilling the body with straight lefts and uppercuts. DeGale hooks away on Bute with both hands, crashing mostly into biceps as Bute falls into a compact shell. DeGale chased into a corner by a straight left downstairs. Fascinating momentum shifts in this round.

    10-9 DeGale

    69-64 DeGale

    Degale blocking when he's not moving, but Bute's coming forward and throwing more. I could easily see the judges erring and giving Bute that round.
