imo yes, his still going to get exposure, more build up for the groves fight and a chance to put his work in the gym into practice, the guys naturally bigger and hasent been stopped since his debut, degale might not learn to much about himself but ticking over before the groves fight makes sense to me.

It's all experience. Nothing wrong with wanting to keep active, as Degale said " I'd fight every month if they'd let me"

I suppose the only thing that you can say is that there is a lot of money on the line with the Groves fight, so putting him in with a good performer who might cut him or worse still upset the applecart isnt a viable option.

That Lativia Lemon who Jeffries stop i was informed that he came over here the other week and stop a young up and coming fighter from the North East not read much about it on here.So much for being a Lemon.

...anyway, agree with the consensus DeGale will walk through this guy.
Said from the start Groves would beat DeGale and I'll stick with that. Should be close....

I couldn't believe the hype Akaash Hussain was getting, when i watched clips of him he looked out of shape, and could probably make super middle with the right training.

Just a run out for De Gale at 7 days notice - for a keep em busy fight it looks exactly that you'd expect.
Obviously the main thing they've looked at here is the guy hardly ever gets stopped, which will likely change on Sat night you'd imagine.

Yes thats the one, he was getting write up's in the national papers etc, but seems to either have a stamina problem or he doesn't train hard enough by the looks of it.

Marius Sorin, Andrei Bondarev, Yoann Bloyer......the guy is a KO machine and Degale better take him seriously.

Why has Kobal taken this fight? The fight fans want to see him conclude his thrilling trilogy with Adel Belhachemi.

if your not happy dont go to the show simple as :!: the kid is having a run out, as he is preparing to face the best opponent in the country for his FIRST defence. he has just dethroned paul smith in his 10th?? fight :!: :!: which is highly impressive regardless of smith being a middle. that dont happen to him unless the kid is very special.
