He's toying with a bloke that hard hitting IBO world champion Tommy Oousthuizen went 12 rounds with last time out and you all saying Degale is ****. This guy is seasoned at world level, Degale has fought 3 no-nonsense tough guys in a row and all you do is **** on him. He's doing it the hard way, Not taking the easy money Have some respect, so called boxing fans
This guy also went 12 with Tavoris Cloud recently. I just don't know what some of these guys want on here
To finish people off instead of pouncing about slapping jabs, I hate groves but he would of ended the show.
I like Degale and for me the only negative was the whole Groves situation. He acted like a fool and made himself look so stupid on Ringside IMO. However, everyone deserves a second chance and I've seen plenty of interviews with him since and he seems like a nice guy. I do think he gets undue crticism on here. He is better than many would like to admit.
DeGale is NOT ****. He's just not as good as we all thought he was about 18 months ago. I still think he has the potential to be a world beater, he just needs to keep learning. Yes, he makes tactical mistakes and makes fights unnecessarily harder than they need to be but that will only season him up. Stick with James people, he has the potential to go VERY far.
I have been no De Gale fan generally, but he seems to have improved his punching technique, looked good tonight so fair play to him
Just ignore the haters and take solace in the fact they are just miserable ****s who will never be happy. Great performance, although the guy was made for him and thats the point at this stage of his career. Rebuild and get experience at different levels.
He's just not anywhere near as good as many make him out to be. But let's be clear, that was a decent performance where he still makes the same mistakes and shows the same flaws. I can't believe a four year pro with so much amateur experience can't throw his left or right hook properly. He gets **** because he talked himself up so much, as did many of his moronic fans. When he actually beats a genuinely good opponent without labouring, then he can have some praise. Right now he's a mouthy ***** who looks seriously average.
James is a special talent, believe me. If you put him in there against someone who is a threat to him and he will shine.
He performed very well, his uppercut was superb tonight, as was the jab when he went to work. He still lacks a bit of pop and that might be his downfall at world level, whether if he was behind on any scorecard, that he has something that is a leveller. I imagine he will be a world champion, but he might lose a couple on workrate, like against Groves.
