Degale has no power, easy Golovkin KO. Degale is either hugely overrated, or a complete bottler. Not been impressed in any of his fights, and imo, he was comfortably beaten by Jack. I know fights are not judged on how much you hurt the opponent, Degale didn't hurt him once, despite the flash knockdown. He was also outworked, and bullied at times.

The black and white kids on a bus have segregated themselves, both demanding the right to sit upstairs. "I'm fed up with all this bickering", said the driver. "I couldn't care less what colour you're. It doesn't matter to me whether you're black, white, yellow, orange.....in fact, to me, you're all green". "Light green upstairs, dark green downstairs".

During his last few days, Jimmy Saville suffers a heart attack, and is rushed to his local hospital. He wakes up as he's being rushed through the hospital on a gurney by two nurses. "Am I in heaven?" he asks. "No" says one of the nurses. "We're just taking a short cut through the children's ward."

Degale's chances of? GGG v BJS is, imo, an easier nights work for GGG than it will be against Jacobs. If he wanted to, GGG could walk through BJS and KO him in round one. BJS is a 'boxer', but not elite or world level imo, he doesn't have the power to trouble GGG.

No idea about Jacobs's back story, i like to focus on where a fighter can go, rather then why he is where he is. I give my opinion on their boxing ability, not character etc. As I said before, anything other than a GGG KO, and it's a shock, even GGG points. Especially given Jacobs has already been KO'd in his career and he's a 'puncher', which works against him imo. We saw what GGG did to Lemieux. I don't see anyone who can stop GGG tbh. His toughest fight came against a welterweight who had the speed and unorthodox skill to trouble him, but not the power. I don't see any middleweight out there who has Brook's speed+skill combined with power+'froch' standard chin. ......Especially if the rumours that were flying about pre kovalev v Ward that GGG had actually previously knocked Kovalev down in sparring. Incredible if so, and it is completely believable. I remember recently when Froch said after GGG v Brook that he saw enough weaknesses for himself to beat him....but he's deluded. Froch isn't a 'elite' level boxer, but he has one of the best chins in the game combined with an amazing engine and plenty of heart. He wouldn't be able to walk through GGG like he did against a Bute for example. We saw what Groves's power, who is an underrated fighter imo (Compare his performance v Jack with that of Degale's), did to him at the end of his career. I'd even go as far as saying that Groves would probably trouble GGG for a few rounds just like Brook did, but he'd fade and we all know he isn't the best at taking a shot.

Also...who the hell is Hampton?

huh? we having a competition?

Hell, i'll do it anyway. Crolla v Linares all depends on Linares imo. Before the rematch, everyone seems to be claiming Crolla will win because 'Linares won't be able to dig as deep as last time'. Well..... 1) They thought Linares would be washed up last time. 2) Imagine the confidence Linares took from winning, he now knows he isn't 'washed up'. 3) Linares clearly has more experience, skill and power. Of course, if Linares hasn't got 'one more in him', Crolla can take it. Initial fight was a 50/50 for me, but after seeing Linares's performance first time, it's 80/20 for me in this one....at least. Think he will stop Crolla though.

I could give you a list of pros and cons for both fighters with regards to what they have to do if you want....to prove i actually watched their first fight. (Kind of like a 'breakdown' if you will). But it's a well known fact in boxing that boxers who won the initial fight are likely to win the rematch. You only have to look through history....so any fight i give you can just say 'oh you googled this'. e.g. Chris Eubank SR's defeats to big Steve. oh snap, almost forgot his fights with Carl Thompson, but he was pretty washed up then tbf. That stupid bloody tour Bazza took him on didn't help.

@Manwell Pablo wbu?

Always fancy the winner of the first in a rematch. Edit: Was in a game of fifa so i will give you more detail... From the first it was pretty clear that Linares is the classier fighter and has more power. He hurt crolla, and i think he could KO him this time around.
-
Linares.
-
Have i passed your test?
-
Only a fool would bet anything other than a GGG KO. Apparently he's lined up to face Saunders later in the year in his home country....apparently some form of 'political' thing. Edit: And if you want my predictions for that, another Golovkin KO.
-
Now you're thinking... "Oh s**t, there's no way he could've got all of that from google in 7 minutes.....maybe he does like his boxing".
-
He has to step up, given his size and the names at the level above....although i've seen very little of him.....and don't know who Gomez is. Tbf, he was fighting against a guy who, given his size, should really try and get down to 'welter'weight.....he's too small and has too little power, but a good chin. Super-welter really isn't my division tbh. I only watched it as a few guys on a boxing forum i'm on suggested he is capable of stepping up and beating GGG. For welter's, then welterweight is my preferred level, helps that their is more names their, even though so few fights have been able to be made due to Brook wanting the $$$ fight with GGG, Khan wanting to fight everyone above him despite having a poor chin and not being top 5 at welterweight. At least Thurman v Garcia put an end to that, but it was pretty timid imo. Expected Garcia to put up more of a fight, Thurman just looked classier and did what he wanted when he wanted.

He was fighting at super welterweight though..... WBA.
-
Depends which belt you box for But technically nothing..... But whether you're fighting at light welter, welter or super welter, you're still a welter. It requires a 'step up' to middleweight. You ever admit when you're wrong? Andrade needs to 'step up' to fight GGG.
-
It's also a WBA belt....so you can't even argue that Andrade holds a 'light middleweight' title.
-
Super Welter is a form of Welter weight..... So you're wrong.
-
Super Welter is a form of Welter weight..... Hence a fight against Golovkin would be a step in in weight, and class.
-
GGG isn't a Welterweight.....
-
This statement right? "Who did i describe as an upcoming fighter? Andrade? Like to see where you got that from. "Step up and fight Golovkin", refers to him stepping up in weight, as we all know, well apparently not you, that GGG isn't a welterweight." Is Andrade an upcoming fighter? No. Is he capable of stepping up and beating GGG? No....but of course, like any boxer, he has a puncher's chance. GGG isn't a Welterweight...and therefore in order to 'Step up' and face Golovkin, he needs to move up in weight. What's wrong with that?
-
You think GGG is a welterweight? Huh?
