Degales 9th Dec opponent

Mario Veit couldn't stop him :deal

 

"Only been stopped once"

 

As long as this guy boxes on the back foot he's got half a chance anyway

 

He's gonna play Mr Technical.. I can sense it. Tkod by a bum though? Really?

 

**** fight!

 

Surely this has got to be for the European Belt :deal

 

It's a level above the European belt. It's for the WBO Inter Continental title.

DeGale probably moves to #1 contender for the regular interim super belt if he wins

 

So what are the odds on Groves's opponent being even worse?

 

I thought he was supposed to be fighting this guy: Laatekwei Hammond

I think Groves sorts his own fight and Wazza just shows them? Groves has balls.. he'll fight someone decent.

 

Never been beaten by a debutant!

 

I'm pretty sure Frank's picking the opponent for this one mate :-(

To be fair both Groves and DeGale would fight the best opponents they could but we all know Frank ain't gonna be giving them the chance on this card

 

Great, a former lightweight who's lost to anyone with a pulse and been stopped 4 times. Richard Hammond would be a better opponent.

VVarren: "Groves is fighting a teak tough African who's unbeaten since 2006 and is a dangerous puncher"

 

British match-making really is guff.
