    I underrate his ability slightly it seems as many say he is actually a very good boxer but his chin is undoubtedly his best asset.

    Chisora and Dave Allen seem more punch drunk than DeGale; DeGale seems like he's an actual drunk rather than punch drunk.

    Degale looks and sounds awful but seems more drug related thank punch drunk to me.

    DeGale might be the only boxer in history to get reverse CTE - keep getting hit, keep getting smarter.

    Loved this! And I miss the ringside show. I must say, I enjoyed the Khan-Brook one aswell.

    Yes — and you could always tell Khan never really wanted to make the fight or give Kell the payday (and the chance to beat him). I think it only happened in the end because he’d lost all those millions on that wedding venue project and wasn’t as liquid as he once was.

    For some reason Khan always reminded me of Froch — no surprise they never liked each other. Probably why Froch will keep talking up a comeback but will never actually do it… unless, like Khan, he’s no longer liquid, which is unlikely.

    Froch will be doing fine from his YouTube channel plus he doesn’t come across as a huge spender. Khan lost a tonne building a wedding venue in what looks like the heart of Beirut but he will probably earn good passive income from it as it’s in a Muslim area and they always get married.
