DeGale vs Jack, plus Tank Davis and Khytrov

[blackbelt2003]

What a fight! 15 days in to the new year and we already have a FOTY contender!


I think a draw was the absolute best decision. Nobody deserved to lose this, and both men emerge with credit. DeGale is one tough SOB with heart and balls, and Jack looks so strong, efficient and solid.


The only downside is that Floyd seems insistent Jack is moving up in weight...I'd love it if they can convince him for one more 168 meeting with DeGale to get the belts unified.



Also I was mightily impressed with Gervonta Davis. He is like a more aggressive, powerful, southpaw version of Floyd...less of the defensive prowess and cautious pot-shotting which makes him slightly more flawed but infinitely more exciting.




Would love to see him in with Jezreel Corrales, Francisco Vargas or Orlando Salido. I think Loma is a bit too good for now so keep that one on the backburner as a superfight for next year.
