James Degale vacates IBF world super-middleweight title

[Alpha]

He wasn't going to beat Uzcategui. And he knew it

Yea at this point it's a cash out fight or 2. The money from a Uzcategui fight/ lose wouldn't be sufficient.

I wouldn't mind a Eubank fight. Still think DeGale has to much for Jr.

Just about sums it up. DeGale is playing his last hand of risk-reward. Still though with Uz numer one..if it walks like a duck and quakes like a duck it's a duck. Trinket keeps him from 'rank' and just an anchor. In contrast it was world to Truax. Only in boxing.

vacating now looks a bit better than once the mandatory is enforced I guess, but He is toast and will lose to everyone. I dont see how anyone thinks he could even handle" Eubank jr tbh... He had 24 rounds to prove he was at a higher level than truax, and never even came close to seperating himself. No slight to Truax who is a good honest journeyman, but all he did was come forward and keep busy, which is about what Eubank can do well.

I agree Eubank Jnr would be too young and fresh for De Gale. It would be a good fight to make but I think De Gale would hate to lose to Junior so will wait it out for the winner of Groves/Smith.
