[Hinchy70]

it has been quite tense between the pair but i couldnt imagine James coming out with these comments, it just doesnt sit right, i was just wondering if anyone could verify them?

Good for DeGale. Has to do what's best for himself and his family and team. fornicate Hearn. These promoters use you then drop you like a hot bag of shitt.

haha read that myself.
DeGale is a tit but whatever works for him.
I'm just looking forward to the Groves rematch so Groves can beat him again...

In all seriousness i used to get irked by DeGale too but since the loss to Groves,ive kind of took to him,he seems to be on the correct side of confident/arrogant these days and ive got massive respect for what he did against Dirrell to become world champ,i actually quite like him

I like him too. Don't think he's the brightest but he always comes across a decent enough guy IMO. Dirrell is a quality operator. DeGales win against him gets overlooked I reckon. I thought Dirrell edged Froch in their fight although he stank the place out.

Jesus Christ 3 people in 48 hrs, I bet he's struggling to get around with that sort of fan base, must be carnage

What will happen when haymon goes skint soon.

[wesshaw1985]

on a fighting level I give him his props but on a character level I just dislike the man, but each to there own.
I'm a big fan of Groves and the way he talks, I know I'm in the minority on that one...

he'll be millions richer and he'll come back to England where either Hearn or W@rren will pick him up.
DeGale doesn't lose whatever happens with Haymon...

I thought Dirrell beat Froch too,i didnt think Carl landed a glove all night,he did press and Andre's punches were pitty patty but they were the only ones landing,opinion did seem to be 50/50 though

whos the best guy DeGale has stopped?
I reckon it would go the distance and be a close decision...

[rio]

What Hearn did to Degale was a disgrace. Hes was meant to be acting in his best interest, He knew Froch would not fight him but instead kept him in limbo for over 6 months because he didn't want ask a retiring froch to give up his belt.

It doesn't matter how good the boxer is but how durable they are when your talking about stopping someone, I would say Periban is more durable then Groves, also the punch that floored Dirrell would have sent Groves into next week Froch style.

I agree with lefty, DeGale KO if they fight again. I also had DeGale winning the first (pro) fight.

how do you come to the conclusion Periban is more durable than Groves?
They've both been stopped once, Groves by Froch (a supposed power puncher), Periban by DeGale. A DeGale that didn't stop Groves when they met.
Now DeGale has stepped up in level (Dirrell and Bute) he is 0 for 2 in terms of kos.
I believe Groves is on the same level as Bute and Dirrell so I have no reason to believe DeGale would ko him either...

Agree 100%, The least Hearn could have done was got Froch to vacate while he fucked everyone around (Froch is a big headed prick and attention seeking whore who wanted everyone to beg him to fight again), DeGale could of won the belt but Froch didn't want anyone taking the limelight. Hearn let his personal relationship get in the way of business, fornicate him.

They've both been stopped once, Groves by Froch (a supposed power puncher), Periban by DeGale. A DeGale that didn't stop Groves when they met. Froch isn't a power puncher. DeGale didn't go for the KO against Groves it was a chess match.
Now DeGale has stepped up in level (Dirrell and Bute) he is 0 for 2 in terms of kos.
I believe Groves is on the same level as Bute and Dirrell so I have no reason to believe DeGale would ko him either...

I came to that because Groves has been rocked plenty of times including in the ams with head gear, while all the times I have seen Periban he has looked a typical tough Mexican.
Do you really think Groves would have got up from the punch DeGale dropped Dirrell with? what do you mean "I believe Groves is on the same level as Bute and Dirrell"? Are you talking skill wise? Or as in durability?

[Tarkus]

"He's just bitter because he's got no say over me, he has no control over me and I don't lick his ass. I do like Eddie and we do get along."

The guy starts to sound like his idiot manager. Forgot his name, little trash talking prick.

I mean, I believe Groves of equal skill to both Dirrell and Bute. If they were to be matched up they would be 50/50 fights.
"Do you really think Groves would have got up from the punch DeGale dropped Dirrell with?"
Do you think DeGale would have got up from the punch Groves dropped Froch with?
Its hypothetical.
Facts are they went the distance once. DeGale hasn't stopped anybody since he has moved up in level from Periban, I believe Groves is a level above Periban (as do all the governing bodies) so I would edge towards DeGale not stopping him either...

[ashedward]

This is no surprise really, we have all seen this coming since Haymon came involved.Hearn has barely mentioned the Medina fight snd said that Degale-Jack isn't ppv worthy, If Haymon had his own Tv deal and promotional arm in the UK you would never see Degale on a Matchroom show again . It's not a huge loss in the grand scheme of things despite Degales talent, this has been building for a while but I still expect Degale-Smith will be made next year on ppv of course.

Also, how an you say Froch isn't a power puncher, yet you are so certain DeGale would ko Groves?
Bute for starters, Froch ko'd him, DeGale didn't.
Groves, Froch ko'd him "twice", DeGale didn't.
Very strange argument you are making...
