    He really is. DeGale doesn't even care though, he wants a cash-out.

    Degale is a tough S.O.B. and if he's as faded as most of us fear, he's going to be in for one tough, gruelling and potentially risky night. Eubank has a real nasty streak in him as displayed on numerous occasions and in particular against Nick Blackwell and I just don't see this version of Degale being able to live with Jnrs work rate and ferocity.

    A few years ago and I think Degale would be a significant favourite due to his greater skills and ring IQ. Plus if Jnr. loses this one, I struggle to see what his future options are whereas Degale doesn't really have much to lose except, I fear, potentially his future health. I can potentially see this being a bit of a mismatch. Shame really as Degale has earnt an easier out than this.

    Its not match room or sky but they certainly made this possible by lowering the ppv bar. I cant belive this is ppv itv and pac v broner is free on same channel???

    Degale legs seem gone. I missed the Traux rematch but Degale looking like old man Ali

    Hopefully i can find a pub showing this cos i don't want to pay for it.

    Shopworn / mildly shot Degale v very limited skills Junior.

    Interesting to see who wins but it's not a world level fight.

    If CEJ wins he becomes 2x IBO world champion. Might retire as well, nothing left in the sport.

    Eubank in a demolition. DeGale is shot.

    Truax outworked Degale so can't see any way Degale wins this fight, doesn't have the legs or power to keep Eubank at bay imo. Two average fighters making a bit of coin.
