There is no reason why this man should have 2 Draws on his record. He punished both Bute and Degale but the corruption/incompetence of the judges have altered that fact. Imagine if Badou were British, American or Eastern European. He would have been anointed the second coming with a media backing to match.
Well your OP is probably not going to go over very well here, but it's hard to argue with most of your post imo.
He just an average/decent fighter really.. good in every department but not very good in anything he gets no luck thats for sure, and Degale gets all the luck with decisions..
This post i agree with. Jack is a Good fighter with potential Yes. But he's not an outstanding fighter with ATG Skills. Not at all.
Fan of Jack here. Was rooting for him versus Degale, but I scored the fight a draw. As said above, Jack's good at everything, but not great in any department. Partly for this reason he will have a hard time beating the contenders at light heavy, let alone the top fighters. Looks like his best days are behind him if this continues to be the case because he has apparently outgrown super middle. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't see it. Getting stopped by Edwards and dropped by Degale does not bode well when it comes to dealing with the punchers one division up.
You never know, if he really is weight draining like he and his team claim, not having to cut so much could make a big difference in punch resistance.
And? Not every fighter is an ATG. In fact there are very few. BATB isn't an ATG, does that take anything away from what he's accomplished?
Can you explain to me how you scored the fight? Jack got his sh1t took. He also got hit with a balance shot for the KD against DeGale.
