    Jack by close and uneventful UD.

    Would be happily proven wrong as DeGale has grown on me.

    Where did you get "Nyberg" from, did you just make that up?

    Degale is a lazy fighter, he was lucky to get the decision in his last fight against the pawn shop owner Medina.

    I think Badous work rate will be the deciding factor. Also I believe the occasion will get to Degale like it did when he faced groves.

    Nyberg is his moms name, he was always Jack, Johannes is his fist name though...

    That's what his passport says, but either way, he call himself Badou Jack now.

    If DeGale is as fit as h claims after working with a strength and conditioning coach for the first time in his pro career and, therefore, doesn't need to take rounds off, I think he has too much movement and punch variety for Jack. But if James gasses and slows as he has done in the past I can see Jack taking a close points decision by winning the 2nd half of the fight. However, DeGale looks in tremendous shape and I expect him to win a close but unanimous points decision.

    Mister Iron Gassiev is the winner here.
    He wins my appreciation for an entire day, totally free of charge.
