The former world champion James Degale was ridiculed after the incident with throwing on water and a “issued” confrontation with Matt Floyd before Floyd’s victory over Shane Mosley on Friday evening in Great Britain.
A strange quarrel took place in the ring a week before the fight Floyd vs Mosley, which took place on Friday evening in London.
After the predictable win of Floyd over 53-year-old Mosley, the influence can be next in the queue for celebrities/influencer.
“Viral” quarrels
Degale and Floyd exchanged words before the latter threw a bottle of water to the former world champion. The Olympic champion then hit Floyd and threw a blow when safety separated the pair.
Buga quickly became viral, but for the wrong reasons.
Fans quickly called forced meetings and scenarios, questioning its importance for the upcoming fight.
The material from the stage showed that the influence is trying to get to Floyd’s face. Then Floyd shouted: “I will fuck you,” which seemed more invented than genuine.
The stock exchange made many viewers shake their heads in disbelief.
“Was it an advertisement for the up-to-date soap opera? Unaware,” wrote one of the fans on Twitter.
“James Degale is trying to make a drama in which it does not exist. The fight does not even apply to him. It is spinning,” said another.
“It was a bad attempt to create noise. Fight come.”
Path to return
Time, lack of emotional intensity and the awkward body language of both fighters left many questions, whether it was a real quarrel or just a budget-friendly attempt to publicity.
While Matt Floyd beat Shane Mosley at points, the theater before the fight with the participation of Degale finally paid more attention than the actual action in the ring.
Floyd’s victory means that “beef staging” can lead to a return dgale at the future event.
Degale, once decorated with a warrior known for his Olympic gold and world certificates of the title, caused a stir, retiring at the age of 33. Many thought “Chunky”, which had several years at the highest level.
Many fans are now wondering if trying to stay in the spotlight of 39-year-old Degale mean that he regrets that the initial decision to leave after losing with Chris Eubank Jr. in 2019.
