    Yeah,I got that Terry.But I was thinking of the logistics of it only,James living in London.Hope he gets sorted anyway,whether or not its McDonnell.Sure were all agreed,James is a good fighter.Nobody gave him that gold medal.

    He has no-one to blame but himself.

    Totally agree with the second or third poster who said he had got a 'yes' man in McDonnell.

    It is never a good thing when your biggest Cheerleader is your trainer.

    Groves has got to where he is by hard work and good managment.

    Degale prob refuses to accept he does anything wrong, he wouldnt even take advice on woodhall wo was looking out for him and had his best interests at heart.

    Although Groves has gone ahead of him,this could all change in the course of a few months.Look at Fury and Price.I hope Groves does manage to beat Froch,but theres a fair chance he won't.Say Degale got a decent win in before the end of the year,and became a bit more active.He could get a voluntary defence off one of the champions,and has the talent to possibly pull it off.Just has to step it up and take advantage if the opportunity crops up.

    Ted 822 is bang on!

    Groves could easily lose to Froch and Degale could get a world title shot at one of the much weaker champions like Bika.
