    Cracking fight from both guys. I'm not a big DeGale fan but he showed some grit there. He obviously lost his teeth quite early on because his mouthpiece kept falling out and he toughed it out very well. The commentators were questioning his standing in front of Jack rather than boxing .... but he has stood in the pocket for his entire pro career - a bit like a poor mans Don Curry.

    Jack is a beast, great engine especially as he was tight at the weight. Solid solid guy, who doesn't do much spectacular which is why I think he has had some bad decisions.

    having said all that, I watched the fight through the first time without commentary and I had De Gale winning by a point.

    I can see why people might have Jack as the winner. Whoever lost would have been gutted as they both gave their all.
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    Wider than I thought rewatching it again. 8-4 Jack on sheer physicality and more effective punching.

    He did outland Degale in 8 rounds. And considernig he landed cleaner and harder for sure 8-4 isn't unthinkable. I had 7-5. I can't see how anyone can possibly gift Degale more than 6 rounds.

    I had Jack winning. No talk about Floyd checking the judges cards between rounds.

    Is that what Floyd was doing?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    That's what DeGales trainer Jim McDonnell was claiming but I haven't heard anything further -
