Eubank Jr vs Degale: Join Bookee for 33/1 the Fight to Go the Distance

It won’t prove to be the biggest fight of 2019 but for the two men involved, Saturday’s bout at the O2 is absolutely crucial. It’s been described as ‘Do or Die’ and with Chris Eubank Jr and James Degale at advanced stages of their careers, retirement could be the eventual outcome for the loser.

Pundits may therefore be looking at a cagey fight and that’s why this new customer offer from Bookee might appeal. Enhanced odds of 33/1 are on the table if this bout were to go the distance so let’s start this review by looking at the open market comparisons.

What are the Chances?

The stats show that Chris Eubank Jr has won 27 of his 29 pro fights and 21 of those victories have come via knockout. For James Degale, there have been 25 wins with 15 by KO or TKO. Degale therefore has more fights going the distance but the trends look OK if not certain.

We know it’s a gamble but at 33/1, the enhanced odds recognise that and if they do come in, this could be the best possible time to sign up with Bookee.
