Will be rooting for my countryman Jack (My trainer in Stockholm is the same guy that taught Badou Jack the basics when he 1st started) hes like a more robotic less talented Mayweather, but hes smart and precise, very underrated, this guy gets 0 love from boxing fans man, has beat Anthony Dirrell, George Groves and Lucian Bute convincingly and people still hate on him for getting caught by that counterpunch from Derek Edwards
I think hes the best SMW atm and he should beat Degale imo, Degale is too inconsistent imo, seems to fight to the level of his opponents (?)

Great news...

This is a really good fight,,, I like degale, more seasoned, better pedigree in the amateurs, and I think he has really improved since the groves loss

116-112 degale

PBC is back in full effect.

They should go ahead and pair it with the Joshua fight November 26.

Great News! Finally! Expecting more fights to be announced any day with Dates and Venues and Ticket Information. Broner vs Burns for December also Jermall vs J Rock and Jermell vs Charles Hatley likely on the same card

DeGale/Jack was agreed to weeks ago. I'll be interested in seeing how Jack performs for his first fight w/o Memo and under VADA testing. Though he did pick up a quality S&C coach in Shilstone.


Very glad to hear Callum Smith will take another fight in the mean time, love when guys stay busy and keep developing.

If this isn't in Britain then it's a MASSIVE mistake this fight won't get the attention it deserves stateside and finally this should be a PPV fight.

Finally it's official. Expecting them to both look like **** with the result being a contested win.

Great news, can't wait to see it. I haven't seen a lot of Jack's fights but from what I saw it looks like he a good boxer. He also improved in 2015.
