    DeGale has said a few times that his comeback opponent won't be no joke and ****** is looking for a serious fight. Even though Pavlik looked really poor last time this would be a massive risk.

    Pavlik would beat Degale, this fight won't get made.

    DeGale's next fight will be a risk free 'rabbit housing scheme' special against a 15(6)-8 middleweight from Zambia.

    yeah I'd doubt that W@arren would really do this. Pavlik, although poor last time, still presents too much of a risk. 2 defeats on the run would really set Degale back

    :lol: But he's invested a lot of money in DeGale and hasn't really had a return. He apparently isn't a big draw and the public don't like him.

    I thought Pavlik was going to be on Showtime in September and Bute in November. No reason why he can't fight DeGale in September, although it's a huge risk for DeGale and I doubt

    Degale is still to green for pavlik, although I still can see degale pulling off the win, because pavlik does not have the same pop at 168 and has been outboxed by plenty
