Carl Dilks
Re: Carl Dilks
No need to be embarressed in the slightest. DeGale proved that he's above English-level, which sadly, is what Dilks probably is. I haven't seen the fight yet, but I feel sick for Dilks. He's a decent lad and I will be following his career with a very keen eye in future.

Let's be real. Carl is domestic level, while Degale will mix in world circles in 2/3 years.
Dilks could go as far as a British title if he dusts himself off, has a period of reflection and trains hard. He has class, is a top bloke and deserves every success.
He's better than he showed on Saturday, DeGale was just too much.....
But he will be back, he has a lot going for him and is a decent operator. Good luck Carl..

Re: Carl Dilks
Alrite guys read throw the comments and after a few days of it doing my head in an watching it back I think it was stopped early but apart from that I boxed awful an if I'm being honest I think I propably froze alittle! I'm more embarrssed about the fight more than anything I was able to carry on an didn't realise wot was going on with the ref at first that's why there was no reaction I thought I was getting a standing count then realised dnt get them in pro fights! Must say thow the kid has talent I only wish I could have abit more ti

Re: Carl Dilks
Take a step back Carl, have a think about things and then come back strong.
Coming on here and being so open and honest is the mark of a real man, a true sportsman.
Win, lose or draw the respect many have for you because of that - me included - is worth more than any fight you'll ever win....
Good luck to you mate you deserve it....

Re: Carl Dilks
Plenty of boxers have lost in the first and gone on to become champs, hope your one of them Carl

Re: Carl Dilks
Whilst I criticised your performance Carl on saturday night the fact you've come back on here and admitted you didnt perform to your best,etc,that also shows you have great character so well done mate and im genuinely sorry for my comments as they were overly harsh! 
Re: Carl Dilks
2 hours after the fight, is that a Boxrec record for a fighter to post after a bout?
