Last year Degale raced ahead, but it looks like Gavin is going to make up ground this year. By Summer 2012 where will they be? Who will be leading the race?
degale has talent but gavin seems to be the more complete fighter. degale seems to be improving. gavin could plateau sooner. gavin is a better pro, he is all business and gaining experience. degale is still blowing hot and cold.
Hopefully by the olympics they will both be world champions of some description. Degale is more established & will stop more guys than Frankie so I would say DeGale.
Think James has more facets to his game and can adapt more to different situations. Frankie's good but i think DeGale will have the better career out of the two IMO.
Was really impressed with Gavin's movement yesterday, he was making himself very hard to hit and looks to have improved in my eyes. I still think Degale is the real deal and would be in a higher position although im not saying Gavin won't be in a good position himself.
I think Gavin is gonna get better and better the higher class opponents he fights. Some of the little things he does are sheer class.
If chunky had gavin's technique he would be excellent, i think degale will be moved slightly faster then gavin, degale will become world champion early next year i feel and frankie will probly have won the lonsdale outright, won the european and ready to fight for a world title. In terms of who will go further i would say gavin, the lad is a genius in the ring.
yeah he wont be there by 2012 though, thats only next year, i doubt he even fights for an alphabet strap by then, people are getting carried away
