Could James Degale beat Froch?

I'd say on current form DeGale boxes the Froch of Saturday but loses late or on points.

 

I dont think he has progressed as much as GG. But then I picked Carl to KO (legitimately KO) GG between 5 and 9 rounds so..

 

I don't think so, groves has improved since he fought Degale, where as Degale.. Not so much. Groves stylistically is all wrong for Froch, I can actually see Degale getting clattered quite early

 

not on the evidence from the dyah davies fight chunkys been ruined imo by inactivity and jim mcdonnell.

 

There is no substitution for hard work and its a shame that he didn't put the required level of dedication to achieve what he should have. Groves has done marvellously well to get to where he's got by out boxing Froch.

 

would he be 100 %

 

James DeFail is ****

 

DeGale could probably outspeed Carl as well.

 

He'd get robbed by Hearns bought judges, either that or the ref steps in after Froch lands a jab

 

Degale would be gassed after round 5.

 

let me know when degail claims to be 100% fit with no niggles as he as claimed not to be since his loss to groves

 

Apart from the Groves defeat, and that fight with the Pole for the European, Degale has hardly lost a round of boxing since his pro debut. He only lost to Groves by 1 point on 2 cards, and to be fair could have won.

I personally find him frustrating to watch, because he shows bags of class in stages but not enough throughout his fights. I would go as far to say that he gets lazy in fights which maybe down to frustration of not getting big fights.

A good fight for Degale would be Eubank Jnr - on the basis that it would put him back in the limelight, it would get casuals intrested, it is fight he should win, and one that could propel him into the publics eye again.

To answer OP I think Froch would find James during the fight, due the complatancy we have seen from him in previous fights, and ive not seen anything that tells me he would whether the storm.

 

Degale has a chin tho.
