Left uppercut in his case, but the point stands.

Right (in this case left) uppercut, is what I was trying to say.

DeGale fights all follow the same pattern. He starts fast and purposeful, the Channel 5 team comment on how he's started fast and looking purposeful. Then he goes into autopilot, takes a few and starts swaggering around.

Not sure he has the power to make a consistent dent at true world level.

The Georgian has a ragged look about him but I think that's his style. Might encourage the ref to jump in though if he takes a couple.

If he had any pop, he'd have taken the kid out by now. I like watching him, when he hasn't gone to sleep. He's landing some full blooded counters here.

He took Groves the distance and incredibly close. Groves hits as hard as Bika, and boxes a lot better. DeGale just isn't a guy to dominate.

No, I think the opponent is blowing his load in a last ditch effort.

Richie Woodhall is a shit pundit. Just tows the line of whatever organisation he is commentating for. Can't blame the guy for nailing down future work but at least offer something contrary to the company message.

Degale seems to go to sleep in fights which is dangerous when he fights Bika.

Yup, he's dull as ditch water.
Not that I get to hear him, as there doesn't seem to be online way of watching Channel 5

I think the armenian's camp need to think about stopping this. His face is looking a bit of a mess now. He's tough but you dont want him to take unneeded punishment.
