James DeGale-Andre Dirrell --- SKY/NBC. Fact.

[erics44]

Good fight that was, really was expecting Dirrell to win it. 114-112 was about right. The Canadian judge must've had his view obstructed by another fight. DeGale had to finish strongly to get it, and I'm glad it didn't come down to that dodgy second knockdown that I thought was harsh.

Dirrell went down 3 times in the second, the replays were only showing 2, the second one they were showing was clearly not a knockdown and the first 2 were in my opinion

Just watched it again, the second was definitely legit, he landed about 3 punches

Degale is a limited fighter. A good start, but Dirrell controlled most of the fight beyond the 4th. Degale won, but he was outboxed like Manny/Marquez 1. Dirrell needs an immediate rematch and I think he will win more easily this time.

@Gandalf mate, I think Degale was suffering with stamina problems as he just couldn't apply himself. Whether it was due to over training or not, I'm not sure.

I wouldn't mind seeing Froch trying to win his old belt back. Don't think he would have fancied going after Dirrell again but now the GGG fight can wait

[Gandalf]

Nah, I imagine it is because Degale is a basic fighter and ran out of ideas. Are you guys back home really getting hyped by Degale? He's a bit shit really.

I don't give DeGale much of a chance against Ward. How bout you guys?

Ward is starting again but even De Gale said he is behind Ward but left out Froch in his list. They could fight one another.

Who knows how long he'll have that belt? Right now he's the man, the Champ, the dude that delivered, the man with the right stuff, the fighter that went to the US and came back with the belt, guy that doesn't take no for an answer. You could even call him a hero. Let him have a couple of weeks to enjoy himself before you start ragging on him. lol
