    He didn't beat Froch. He quit against Abe, and he's been inactive since.

    If he wins it will be by robbery

    I just favour Degale. Based on current form. Dirrell did very well against Froch. It was nowhere near a robbery though. Dirrell by a round I had it last time of watching. Abraham is a very beatable fighter. Froch outboxed him for 12 rounds not just 9. Groves did to Froch what nobody else ever had. And onmy card Degale beat Groves though he lost on the cards in a very close tepid affair.

    He manhandled Froch and outboxed him at the same time...

    Dirrell has baby nuts, he is way too soft for a guy like DeGale. DeGale knocks him cold in 6 rounds

    I have alot of money on dirrell. He will win by quite a wide UD. If GG outboxed degale on the back food im sure dirrel can manage it. Dirrel is far better than anyone degale has faced but the opposite is not the case.

    GG didnt outboxed degale, most people had degale winning by a round or two, myself included. This is a close fight which I think probably go to the home fighter on points. That will be my bet along with a draw which I already got £30 on.

    DeGale deserved the nod over Groves and is hugely improved since that fight anyway. Dirrell is getting smashed

    You can't seriously believe Froch won that fight? Really??

    I would give Degale a slight edge, think he wants it more and at this point has slightly better tools to work with.

    But should be a very good competitive matchup.

    did i say that? i thought it was a dismal fight i shaded for dirrell, but was close enough to see why froch got it. glad to see you've left the brit to troll where you rightfully belong.

    Both Dirrells loose every time the pressure is on. Andre is fighting someone who is even more awkward than he is. I think Degale has finally got his style and injury problems sorted I think it will be **** cagy fight but I see a Degale win on a spilt decision
