    You can bet your house on it if it tickles you that much.

    Old shopworn semi retired Froch would beat Degale.

    The younger fresher version would fcukin murder him.

    I'd read through some of your posts before throwing insults around. :good

    Froch is either very overrated or very underrated by most. People need to understand while yes he is limited his will to win has always been Elite level and somehow that alone has gotten him the nod or KO in a lot of fights that people always picked him to lose. Degale isn't elusive like Groves which gave Froch problems and he likes to come straightforward and that's a war Froch can win.

    I want Degale to win for a very simple reason if Ward, Anthony Dirrel, Andre Dirrel, and AA hold all the belts at SMW NO ONE WILL FIGHT EACHOTHER say goodbye to a unified champ for a long damn time. But if Degale wins we can see a Degale-Anthony Dirrel fight and possible Degale-Ward. I think Degale has a better shot at Anthony who is less talented than Andre Dirrel.

    The Abraham KD was bogus. Dirrell shoved him off balance with his elbow/forearm and then clocked him with a fast sneaky shot as he was trying to regain it.

    Degale was hurt pretty bad in the 5th round (IIRC) by that Polish dude he fought a while ago and more worryingly, if there is any truth to the rumours, he was knocked out by the light hitting Billy Joe Saunders in sparring once too. Judging from Saunders' response when quizzed about it during an interview, I definitely got the impression he at least dropped him.

    That said, Dirrell has been dropped by Alfonso Rocha, had seemingly legitimate KDs not called against him when he fought Anthony Hanshaw and Abraham, and was pretty badly hurt by Edwards. I think either is capable of stopping the other.
