Degale vs Truax rematch..Lara-Hurd

[Kirkland Laing]

Two decent fights. I'm even interested to see Lara versus Hurd.

DeGale looked finished he was terrible Truax was really know more than a journeyman in his last two fights James has been smashed up so it does not board well
for him he will have to improve,!!!!!! but does he have anything left because on that performance you would have to say NO.

[Ron Swanson]

Want to give a bit of perspective because I often see "at home" and tend to think "in home country" applies better.

This fight is about exactly even in distance from Truax's home as the distance between London and St. Petersburg.

I think it's important to note this because Vegas doesn't care one bit where Truax is from. And when you understand that distance it makes a lot more sense.

I think it's a bit early for DeGale to be jumping straight back in there with Truax, he could have done with a confidence builder (I guess that's what Truax was supposed to be 1st time ). I think DeGale pulls off in this one tho.

DeGale has only had 26 fights. It seems like a hell of a lot more than that. Easy to forget anything decent he's done on account of the Groves and Truax loses. Those two fights have punctuated his career far more than any win. Im not sure what value there is in a warm up. He either miscalculated, had an off night, whatever you want to call it. In which case he should go straight back in and reclaim his belt. Or, he just doesn't have it anymore and a potential banana skin is the last thing he needs.

[Fenster]

For a geezer that looked "shot," certainly jaded after a tough career/injuries, DeGale is a massive favourite to win the rematch and has spent all week overlooking Truax again.

James DeGale should consider retiring.

His speech is slurred and the Jack fight might have finished him.

I hope he can leave the sport intact but he looks a bit messed up going into the rematch.
