    DeGale was SHITE.

    The opponent, had he thrown punches - and had DeGale been deducted a point..... could have sneaked a draw.
     
  4. He was the best out of the three IMO...... What can you do if your opponent doesn't wanna fight.

    **** knows what he was trying to do there. The "Ooo tell em Frank, these opponents just come to defend and are hard to stop" line was a cop out aswell. Saunders and Gavin overcome the same problems, mainly because they you know actually tried punching with some venom! Instead of this tappy tappy crap.

    The boo's were fully deserved and hopefully this brings him down a peg or two because he needs it, bigtime. He might be an Olympic winner but as it stands he's a nobody in the pro's so needs to earn the respect he obviously craves.

    He's obviously got some decent attributes though im yet to see power being one of them, but he's a blert and fighting like that and disrespectful taps on the head of the opponent during the instructions from the ref isnt going to get fans on his side.

    Get your arse in the gym, work on your flaws and make the most of your potential. Put the fame and all that shite to the back of your mind.

    Haha the commentator said those punches were a bit Calzaghe
     
  7. Well all the commentators said De Gale was the most immpressive, but i'm sure you lot are more Knowledgeable.

    And Scouselad..... Get a grip, a young olympic gold medalist on his pro debut, deserves to get booed.... get out of it. Although there seemed to be a few of your likeminded idiots there

    DeGale looked a ****. No power and nothing else worth mentioning. Obviously Nicky Piper and the racist Jonny Nelson were given a brown envelope stuffed with cash to be nice about Goldenboy. The guy is a wanker but matched the Warren way he will walk into several titles and a world title shot.

    I can understand Nelson and Piper saying DeGale has the most potential, after all thats just a matter of opinion, but to say he was the most impressive tonight is complete nonsense and flat out wrong.
     
  15. All you guys who are critisising DeGale...... Please tell me what he did wrong ? apart from not KO the guy.... which is not the be all and end all of Boxing
