    James DeGale has next to zero class and I am delighted that the cocky ***** was beaten last night. His post fight comments have just confirmed it.

    I remember his TV appearance on Steve Bunce's Setanta show before he'd even turned pro. Came on chewing gum and generally being a dick. He has no respect.

    thanks for the video matey but who the **** is in there asking these flimsy questions ??? are they hand picked by warren...not 1 had the balls to front degales team and tell him what everyone is thinking. someone should have confronted him about his attitude pre-fight , it stunk tbh.

    the public is sick of pre-madonnas spilling out trash talk and not backing it up.i was hoping this may be the kick up the arse he needed but instead old fish eyes is going to try and spin this one.

    given all the crap he talked i really don't think trying to argue he may have nicked the fight is satisfactory....they are winging that booth called him a wanker when in fact booths team showed remarkable composure throughout this whole event.

    yes i do believe degale is a better talent but his attitude stinks the place out.

    he needs to get some humility and if he can't find it now he never will...

    there is something in the way degale does it that annoys me ...believe it or not i think he's worse than hamed ( there was alwaya a tongue in cheek nature to hameds talk plus he backed it up 99 times ou of 100 )

    What I believe it is with Mcdonell, is some fighters have an intuitive sense for fighting, they dont always knows how they're doing certain things in the ring, they do it when their in rhythm, and cause it feels the right thing to do, where as some fighters, who have good Boxing brains, make conscious decisions to do things cause they know how it will benefit them, and I think Jim Mcdonell is the latter part of this as a trainer, he might of been able to fight himself, but he cant teach someone else what to do, cause he might of done it intuitively. Take Freddie Roach, we all know Roger Mayweather was a much better fighter, but who's the better trainer? Emanuel Steward was never a pro, although he was GG champ if I recall, a good amateur, but Steward is one the best trainers in the game, better than guys like McGirt, who was an excellent fighter.


    Yeah there were a couple of occasions where he tried to put shots together, and barely any of them connected, and you say, Groves would slide out the side door once slipping them.

    :rofl this press conference is class!

    Just a bunch of excuses and it's hilarious the way they're all stumbling round trying to work out he lost.

    I think this is the happiest I've ever been after a fight :D

    Three very bitter men sat there. DeGale made himself a villian in that fight, and the stuff Warren spouted about them not booing Degale they were booing the fight was ridiculous. After the fight, when DeGale got on the ringpost to celebrate he was booed. I thought McDonnell would come out and kept quiet due to all the rubbish he was saying before the fight but he still wont let Booth go on this not proper fighter stuff. Warren in that press conference was alot different from the other interviews that he gave. Finally, you telling me 50irishman can be overheard over the entire Birmingham arena, please absoloute bull****.

    Classless and deluded. Frank moaning about the ''yes men'' in his team and hes the worst 1 for it. get a grip man, u lost the fight, not as abig a deal as hes making out, loads of time to re-build but im not sure Degale is mentally strong enough to come back from this. Them slapping flurries he did looked shite from where i was sat, thats the firs thing that needs sorting, if his cut aint to bad get him back in the ring for the Murray Mitchell card. How many times have we heard them praise Mayweather, a fighter who's not known for his aggression and wins fights clearly, just like groves done last night.

    IMHO, until Degale admits this he isn't going to get where he wants to go
