    Froch.

    DeGale would pose Froch problems early doors, but DeGale had an awful habit of taking rounds off, which would allow Froch back into it.

    How much Froch wins by would depend on how seriously he takes DeGale. If he takes him seriously and sticks to his game plan then he wins by a wide margin and maybe even stops DeGale. If he takes him lightly, like he did Groves in their first fight, and boxers stupidly, he wins a close decision in a scrappy fight.

    Froch would do a real number on Degale in the 2nd half of the fight.

    Froch did struggle against technical fighters and Degale would have given Froch problems early on in the fight.

    However Degale didnt have the cardio to keep up the pace and Froch would pile on the pressure from the 6th round onwards and he would ko degale late

    Unlike Dirrell and Ward, DeGale was easier to hit. Especially when sitting on the ropes, as he always did .

    Sonny is a decent poster when you get to know him and have not seen any racist signs at all.

    What is your beef with him?

    good posters don't talk like this...

    after Chris Billam-Smith's win again Okolie, on his big night in Bournemouth and Sonny writes....
    on Scott Harrison..
    on Tyson Fury..
    on Carl Froch....
    Constant subtle anti-white comments. Whilst being overly sensitive and abusive to anyone who says anything about his favourites like Hamed, Lewis, Khan, Yafai etc.

    On Hamed.. :risas3:
    on Galal Yafai
    on Khan-Brook.

    Blimey I have just seen all the comments on various different threads tagging me, I hope you are ok mate as you seem to gone through a fair few threads to get a lot of quotes from years gone by that I have posted. Must have taken some time. If you have a problem, feel free to send me a DM :).

    Not that it remotely matters, but I am not Asian, I am white. Ref boxers that I am biased towards you forgot David Haye, however as a few posters on here know my fave boxer is Loma. All the best bud.

    There's a search option bud, takes a few minutes ;)

    If you are white, you must be the most self loathing white man in the country. Or a white muslim or ginger muslim convert or something:biggrin:
    Bet you loved it in the Mayweather gym, did you buy TMT merchandise as well?

    The way you cry over anyone saying anyone is better than Hamed and Lewis (and others) or even comparing anyone to them, is crazy sensitive fanboy levels, you go into a right swearing hissy fit

    this guy summed you up well

    Prime DeGale would have posed Froch some serious problems. He was a classy, technical boxer, who, on his day, could compete against the very best. I do think Froch would have won but I think it would have been closer than people would imagine.
