    It's amazing DeGale hasn't realised why people don't like him.

    He was no doubt, surprised about the shitty reception he got in his HOME TOWN.

    DeGale was getting booed all night at the O2. Groves got a great reception.

    If De Gale has any sense, he will realize how important his public image is, cause it probably swayed the judges in this fight to give Groves the benefit of the doubt in some of the swing rounds.

    Disagree

    If anything judges would award him rounds out of the assumption that he would win, the assumption that he's doing quality work

    I have never gone so mental nor seen a crowd go mental at a boxing match when the decision was announced. Literally the whole of our row was just hugging each other.

    Give Fwanky a break he has feelings too. :verysad

    Glad Groves won the look on Fwankies face post fight was priceless.

    Who do you reckon shifted more PPV's though?

    DeGale I'd say.

    He means the Judges would assume because he is expected to win that he is doing better then he actually is. I don't think the Judges got much wrong here, It was close and George groves just did enough, he gave it all in there, did De gale do the same ? the referee on the other hand was too soft with De Gale.
