Truax..deserves praise.

[Silkeyjoe]

Degales a strange fighter. Even when he wins I never think he looks great. For a supposedly slick fighter he is very easy to hit.

Hats off to Truax but hard to see him being competitive in the mix. As a world champ Id expect at least 10 super middles to beat him easy. If I was him Id take the fight with the biggest purse and I dont thin that is Degale. He deserves it too, genuinely seems a really nice guy

Mate, your title says that Truax deserves praise. Then in your first post, you mention DeGale's injuries etc. And in this post, there's a paragraph of dissing his achievement.
I don't think anyone is giving him anything but praise.........well, apart from you!

You do know I didnt start the thread?

Fair play to Truax. He fought to a game plan and won, but I dont believe Degale was anything special on the night and I dont think Truax will hold his title very long.

I was half watching this fight, DeGale isnt the most inspirational of fighters. The BN boys seemed to have it quite tight. It was all Truax from what I saw, DeGale was dog shite and Truax just kept on punching. He totally deserved the win.

DeGale seems to have some underlying issues to sort out. His breathing is bad fight after fight and he constantly looks knackered. He said the shoulder was fine but his confidence in it wasn't great.

Cue a split with McDonnell and a 'fresh' DeGale coming at ya in the new year.

Adam booth or Virgil hunter might tweak him.
