HOW DO YOU SEE SATURDAY’S FIGHT BETWEEN DEGALE AND EUBANK JNR PLAYING OUT?
Wayne Alexander
Former EBU champion
I see it being hard-fought and I don’t think either of them has the power to end it early. If the fight was three or four years ago, I would have gone for James all day long, but now I think a fresher Eubank Jnr wins on points. I hope I’m wrong. I like James and really want him to win.

Prolific promoter
I think a lot is being read into Degale’s fights with Caleb Truax. Degales’ movement, craft, success at a higher level and repertoire of punches make him a heavy favourite for me. Eubank Jnr is still improving, but Degale is some way above anyone Jnr has beaten.
Harvey Horn
Super-flyweight prospect
I see Degale doing what George Groves did to Eubank Jnr. I see him completely outboxing him and out-fighting him. He has been in with world-class opposition and I believe this will show when they fight.

If James Degale is 75 per cent of his slick southpaw best, he will win a wide points decision. But if the boxer who turned up against Caleb Truax – from both fights – is there, Chris Eubank Jnr will use his relentless tenacity and physicality and win a late TKO.
