    I think Degale on points, but it should be a ridiculously close fight. Some people are forgetting that Dirrell has some seriousl skills, caused Froch lots of problems, and boxed the ears off Abraham before taking over two years out.

    Degale seems in the zone, has momentum, and has been the more active fighter. That's why I think he'll shade it.

    Agree with that LtT. What time is the walk? I'm just wondering what the crowd will be like.

    Degale will walk at 9:30pm.

    Venue isn't that big I don't think. Shouldn't be too hostile as the Dirrell brothers aren't well liked in America, and Boston isn't his home city.

    Yeah that's what I figured. I'm with you, De Gale has been on fire as he has matured a bit

    Dirrell on points, and in 10,11,&12th are my bets, just through hope more than anything because I can't stand that mouthy B'astard

    DeGale for me, on points. As Loko says, his activity should see him through what is still likely to be a tricky encounter. I'm looking forward to it.

    Dirrell on points.

    I'd favour DeGale against anyone except Andre Dirrell & Ward

    I favour Dirrell on points but he's such a strange fighter so it's hard to know what you'll get.

    At his best there's only Ward that gets near him at 168, at his worst DeGale could bully the fight out of him.

    Hope DeGale can do it though

    Wouldn't be a surprise. We know what judges are like for the home favourite when it goes to points.

    I've lumped on DeGale at 4/5 and smaller stake on JDG in 10-12 at 14s.
