    Was just watching the Degale-Groves Ringside bit and from about 7:40 - 8:05 Degale is just repeating the exact same words over and over. Any fan/friend whatever of his must cringe sometimes with the stuff he comes out with.

    James is cringeworthy yes but ****ing hell! Groves seems smug and deluded imo. Also seems to have creepiness about him.

    There was a thread. That account got banned. Despite how long it is nothing of note happens. A lot of people are very naive and take the internet too serious. I remember he never even used proof to say he found my 'facebook' :patsch Oh no wait he did but get this 'he deleted it' Sure, sure he did. :dead

    personally think it will come down to who can execute the game plan better. We have YET to see James "I like to copy Floyds boxing" degale in trouble and out-think his opponent he seems to rely on his speed a lot. George can only win this fight if he can nullify James speed and quick punching style. Otherwise James will steal rounds by his quick flurry of punches.

    The fight will also come down to WHO can take a good solid shot. We have yet to see James chin tested so this is the interesting part in this fight what will happen if he gets tagged?? However, this may not be a problem as james has good reflex's but i think both have ok chins so i don't think anyone has a advantage here.

    No matter how i see this fight going it will in my opnion depend on how much Degale wants to rely on his game plan of quick in-out tactics as i don't think George can keep up with James with this tactic.

    Happy to hear others views its great to hear
