UK potentially best fighter out the current lot? he is defo the one in the best form, last two performances have been outstanding fair assesment?
He has looked good in his last two, so he deserves credit. But what I will say is, did Periban just turn up for the pay day? Degale can take a high from the fact he's the first man to stop him, but looking into it further Periban just looked out of shape (missed the weight for a start), slow, out of sync... so it was inevitable. The stoppage was going to come anyway, but for Howard Foster to wave it straight off like he did instead of giving a count was a joke.
i wanna see him go a few rounds, see how he looks down the stretch. he's always looked the part aside from his "breathers" on the ropes, and appears to have a bit more dig now. certainly the pick of a bad bunch, shame about another premature stoppage.
Hope he's not taking much from beating his last two opponents. Neither have been anything like prepared.
