If Degale had replaced Magee last night

I'm not a big DeGale fan or anything but a lot of these dismissive posts are ridiculous. Sure, he's only had 10 fights but class is class. Watching DeGale, I don't get the impression he'd be destroyed by anyone at 168lbs. Sure, he might lose a few but he's a world class prospect. If DeGale fought Magee next, I'd be surprised if he would lose that fight, so whilst he probably would lose to Bute, it's not a ridiculous match up.

He's not far away from his peak, I don't think. Whilst he may only be a 10 fight novice, it wouldn't surprise me if he was fighting like a veteran by his 20th fight. His progress is going to be that quick. He has all the tools and now he just needs to put it all in place.

Bute would win, yeah, but DeGale shouldn't be dismissed against any opponent at 168.
