    Come on chunky and I have a great return due from paddy power 
    I’ve not followed it through with cash but I’m quite strong on Eubank on here. We shall see
  • Shocking decision but I’m not shocked!

    Douglas had no quality but he was by far the better fighter.
    I had Selby by two 
    He didn’t do enough for me despite clearly being the classier fighter.

    This is like would i rather lose an arm or a leg fight for me, think both fighters are absolute dickheads, i just about prefer DeGale because Eubank Jr. might be my least favourite boxer ever
  • My god I can’t stand joe Joyce lol but I’m really excited for this fight

    How do you see it panning out @LewSmith94

    Lew is with you mate 
  • His coach looks a fool

    I think if Degale can stay switched on for the 12 he could get it but I believe Eubank will have to much work rate and he will take it but I’m not ruling out Degale but I am a fan of Eubank 
  • The head of Eubank is deadly 
  • The head of Eubank is deadly 
    This ref is too lenient though Eubank getting away with the head too much and Degale getting away with holding with every opportunity he needs to start pulling them up

  • Eubank two up

    At least two. 
  • And that's being kind to DeGale.

    Eubank by 4now 
  • Yeah I have Eubank running away with it now Degale showing his decline massively the guy who whipped the floor with Gonzalez, perriban and dirrell isn’t the same man anymore 
  • He had David Hayes Achilles

    Degale did well to get a last PPV payday.

    Reminds me of Haye's two fights with Bellew - talked the talk, but was finished.
  • Corner should’ve stopped this about 9 th rd

    Watched on an American stream.

    Not sure what ITV showed, but at the end of the 10th his corner were heard telling him he was a round down....

    Get BJS in to absolutely school Eubank Jr, he's such a dick!
  • Did one judge really score it 117-9? 
  • Chunky needs to stop there’s nothing left in the tank 

    Eubank showed patience that he hasn’t before but lacks power he just doesn’t hit hard enough 

    can you imagine him against Smith or Saunders , Andrade 

    The fights are there but how will he fair 
  • Did one judge really score it 117-9? 
    Do you think that it should have been higher?

    That was just about the messiest, scrappy and untidy fight I think I have ever seen. Can't disagree with the result other than two of judges had it far closer than I thought. End of the road for DeGalle and as others have said, not particularly promising for Eubank Jnr.

    For Eubank not to knock ageing Degale out and find that killer punch is piss poor.

    not good enough, he will go nowhere.

    Angry with his lack of ruthlessness.


    Oh and also just coincidentally had quite a few quid on him for a knockout 9-12...
    😩

    Too many hard fights and age catching up with him plus junior’s style didn’t suit him at all.

    Chunky has had a great career and deserves his retirement - please retire James.

    Eubank is definitely not the real deal - decidedly average. My God, Smith would destroy him.

    This is the quandary the Eubank path is one that is full of bumps and holes 

    smith will punch holes in him 

    Saunders will dance and jab the head off him 

    Andrade is possibly the best route as it gives a good route to world stage and is potentially winnable on work rate 

    He couldn’t get near a Canello maybe an aged GGG is a route

    vs Jacobs he would be absolutely torn a new one 

    its a strange division to try and compete in
