To be fair, it's only been 6 weeks since a demanding fight (for him) in which he got a pretty bad cut from a clash of heads. One of his mates from Dale Youth told me he wants Magee next, but I doubt they put him in there just yet. That would be a tough ask & Booth's mysterious game plans have now been exposed as throwing fuck all punches & trying to pot-shot your way to victory.
On DeGale, I think this shows some bottle. It would be easy to have taken an easy mark on the undercard of one of Warren's shows to work his way back in, but this fella didn't look bad when he beat down Asikainen, so I see this as a definite challenge. The guy's not world-class, but he's most certainly a step-up from Smith.
