    I'd be looking to keep Mitchell active and out of bother.

    If he could heel up and get around 6-7 weeks training in he can take a tune-up.

    Somebody domestic.

    It's not about how well known it's about people don't like him so he could be more recognised that the likes of Derry Mathews, bomber, the smiths to name a few but he prob doesn't sell more tickets than them.

    I hope so, if The promoter in question can not get his fighters on a card within 9 weeks (apart from injury) there is a problem.

    His promoters at the british level dont fight often enough as it is, infact it seems as though burns is alot more consistent then them and he is world champion.

    No way!... You ask 100 people on the street who they are I guarantee people will know Degale more.

    Being well known, doesn't mean you are a big ticket seller.Groves is more popular and would sell more tickets on his own then Degale.

    Generally it does.

    i.e Mayweather is not the most liked but he sells.... and you only have to look at Audley's TV plus PPV figures.

    And I'm sure Degale would get higher TV figures than Groves
