    Froch by stoppage DeGale wouldn't be able to keep him off hasn't the power of Groves & would be walked down.

    If DeGale got on top would probably end in controversy :hey

    Froch as DeGale is a powderpuff puncher. Carl would walk through him.

    DeGale is also really lazy at times and would let himself get caught on the ropes.

    If it's the same Froch from the Groves fight then Degale can win imo, he is a lot tougher than people give him credit for and he has the talent to be a good defensive fighter. I would still like to see Degale change trainer to fulfill his potential.

    If Groves isn't the opponent then Froch, Hearn and Sky can go and take a fcuk to themselves and they can shove there PPV Box-office sh!te up their arse while their at it.
    Froch has two honorable options REMATCH or RETIRE :deal

    Groves def has more power but i think Degale has the better chin|?

    apart from when he fought that Pole when he won the euro title when has he been shaken?

    Has barely fought anyone with a pulse Terry. :lol:

    Gets himself tied up on the ropes far too often for my liking. His interview with Woodhall sums him up, far too arrogant for his own.

    I agree he doesnt have any decent names on his resume Solaris but i do feel styles make fights and froch was scared at lots of points in the groves fight to engage when george was only throwing single shots, i believe degale could catch big nose with 3's and 4's

    I don't disagree. Technically James is all wrong for him, but if he lacks the power needed to gain Carl's respect, then Froch may just wear him down in the end.

    George could trade in the middle and force Carl back. I cannot see how James is able to do that myself.

    At the risk of repeating myself, he is also very lazy at times. Against Bozic in particularly he would regularly get caught on the ropes which was so unnecessary. He seems incapable of getting rid of the bad habits he has gotten himself into.

    I think Froch knocks him out. I think Degale is too inexperienced and makes too many mistakes and would get punished for them vs Froch. Could be competitive though.

    You make some good points mate but i really think Degales faults are more down to mcdonnell then himself.

    I dont like to blame trainers as im not one nor ever have been but i real feel like he needs a move to freshen up and give him that missing killer instinct.

    I also think the poor level of opposition is to blame for his sloppy lazy tactics he needs big fights and he needs them this coming year or ill give up on him 2bh

    McDonnell was a disgrace in the build up to the Groves fight. Behaved like a little child. His problem is he is James' biggest fan.

    I mean for comparisons sake Angel Garcia has a closer relationship and is ****ing bat **** crazy, but he and Danny get results. What is McDonnell doing for James?

    Would love to see the contract James signed with Hennessey as well. Must be ****ing watertight as he has stuck by a promoter who is not moving him along at all.

    Think he will look back on his career with a lot of regrets.

    Always though his promoter is ****ing up his career, going from that ifilm interview a while who you get the feeling he'd leave hennessey at the drop of a hat if he could

    Yep, which is why I wonder what is in the ****ing contract that means he can't? :lol:

    Was practically begging Mick to make the big fights and in typical Mick style he looked like a rabbit caught in the headlights when the mic was put under his six chins so he could answer.
