Looks like James DeGales next opponent is going to be Irelands Ciaran Healy, not a bad match for James 3rd fight

Healy has pretty much the kind of record you'd expect for DeGale's 3rd opponent. He's a light middleweight, has very little power and has been knocked out the majority of times he's lost.

Chunky should do him easily.

Ture, but never the less, he has "mixed in decent company" as they say.

Good match for Degale he's a bit lighter than him but a good step up should beat him though but a step in the right direction

Yep, that's true. I wasn't trying to detract from his ability as I haven't seen him fight. Just wanted to lay out the facts.
On a related note, the card for the event looks pretty decent:

Thats is a good card every fight there looks decent except the Olympians because they will be very 1 sided beatings Macklin should win his fight also but Small vs Hall should be exciting also the main event is really intreguing could go either way Kotelniks expiernece versus Khans youth

It is a good show. What would make it even better is if, for the PPV money, Sky would add one of the US overnight bills too, as a bonus.

Ye I like seeing that SKY normally do it but i liked the Malignaggi bill with the Prizefighter on before it i thought that was good good fights and a prizefighter but its building up to be a good card but a few US bouts wouldnt go a miss

It will be a stoppage for Chunky but not a bad one to have in you're third pro fight and hopefully Healy will test him a little, but class will be an obvious issue.

I haven't enjoyed DeGale's brief pro career so far, that last opponent was bad beyond belief, but Healy is decent test for his 3rd outing.
