"James DeGale is a hell of a fighter, but tonight he didn’t win. "I respect him as a fighter, but Badou Jack was the better man tonight. But James DeGale is one hell of a fighter."
DeGale felt he'd have won if he wasn't knocked down in the 12th (photo credit:Al Bello/Getty Images)"The main thing is I didn't lose, I'm still the champion and I can move forward."And the response on Twitter suggested DeGale did himself proud, and while some felt the fight was his, others felt he probably fell short of doing enough to win. Indeed, there are plenty who sided with Mayweather, expressing their surprise that Jack wasn't the outright winner. https://twitter.com/GaryShortall/status/820493044856143872 https://twitter.com/_Rochey/status/820492956239007745 https://twitter.com/IamRicoLove/status/820497021031301124 https://twitter.com/simonLFCsword/status/820493023293374465 https://twitter.com/JParrrry/status/820576033799884800 https://twitter.com/thebezgurn/status/820495817836531712 Catch up with this week's episode of Football Friday Live:
