Has been ordered by the EBU. N'Diaye is a 32 year old born in Senegal, lives in Italy. 22-1 with two stoppage wins against decent opposition in his last two fights. Only loss was a split decision against Lolenga Mock in 2008. Hard to say how good N'Diaye is, I'd put him on a similar level to someone like Wilczewski. Anyway this is a decent step up for DeGale after a poor opponent last time out.
first black guy degale has ever faced as a pro you know. might take him a while to adapt. especially with the ring lights bouncing off skin etc.
Great to see my mate out again! Chunky is a quality operator and someone I think that will reach the top! He is a bright and dedicated kid. He is nothing like he has been portrayed by the media..
Tony I dispute the fact that he bright, ur there is plenty of evidence to suggest different. As for him being dedicated there is evidence that he whimped out of sparring with Froch. Dont get too pally with him, you might have to do battle one day.
I've known him nearly a decade mate, I know what makes him tick, he wouldn't back down from sparring anyone, I've had a few gym wars with him, believe me he's not shy.. He is a clever kid too, he is just not portrayed as one and also the Groves build up was a PR disaster IMO but the people around him should of seen what was being created, believe me when I say he is talented and dedicated, he works hard and when you get to know him he's a good kid from a good family..
didn't help himself with the slagging of Groves to be honest. the defeat seems to have refocused him though.
