Agree:think I'm not gonna do the whole DeGale comparison, they have seperate careers to lead. I'll just say that Darren has a real ramrod jab, is good with the left hook and straight right, and seems like he can take a decent punch. Of course we'll know more when he starts fighting more live opponents, but as of now he looks dynamite in my eyes. Opinions?
Looks good. Very minor criticisms would be he overbalaces at times when throwing punches and leaves himself slightly exposed. Also, I'd like to see what he does when punches come back. The one time that fellow put together a punch or two with conviction Sutherland kinda froze which I found interesting. Whether it was sheer surprise that a punch came back or indicative of his nature I'd be interested to see. I wonder...when he faces pressure. And a good counterpuncher as per my first point. Excellent talent no doubt, should get to the top and is a "safer" bet than DeGale.
King would be alright, he ain't that good but he's tough. Get rounds in. Not feeding off DeGale's leftovers would be a start, Frank will probably wheel out that Bald dude
no u not realise that as a top flight amateur sutherland would have been exposed 2 counter punchers and boxers who punch him backatsch...ffs the why u talk u would think sutherland only started boxing when he turned pro:good
notice how almost every reply mentions degale. he looks good but that fight tonight showed nothing. Groves has been fighting better oppo
i met him once he dosent really want to speak about deGale he just speaks about his own career really. But hes a quiet guy and proper humble and down to earth i wish him all the best as he is a quality fighter
Get off the boys nuts, does it hurt you if people make any kind of criticism of your hero? He's a top talent, but yes he makes mistakes, mistakes that suggest certain types of fighters could be a problem, maybe. Simple observations and question marks that can be over any new pro.
Turn it in... atsch These two need to fight when it makes cash common sense for both parties.... :yep I don't think we can judge either of them yet and how well they are going to do... it is far to early. Sutherland made a good point last night... let em both get on with what they are doing and it will happen when it happens..... This definatly aint a double act.... Groves will make this a trilogy and at present he has no pressure as he seems to be off may people's radar... he is just his own stuff, winning and looking good doing it... :good
