    Or would it just be an O2 Arena fight...

    If it could sell 30,000 tickets, then Maybe Golovkin would be interested


    GGG has a lot of fans in the UK, people want want to see this future All Time Great

    Maybe if Hearn/Degale fancied it Golovkin would snap their hands off... cause it's be a big pay day, a world title in another weight class, and It'd be the EASIEST NIGHT OF GOLOVKINS CAREER. :yep :good

    The 02 would be the limit IMO. Degale doesn't exactly have a huge following. He blew any chance of drawing in mainstream fans by well, being James Degale.

    Quigg will become the new Ricky Hatton if he knocks out Frampton :good

    & I can understand why Selby has no fans... he's so boring to watch zzzz

    I think ggg is all wrong for degale. Degale is there to be hit and while his a good boxer and mover I feel he would freeze when ggg tags him hard

    Ya and I really rate degale as a boxer but his one of them guys who kind of likes a nice slow paced chess match. He can be hit and when pressure is applied I believe he would crumble. Similar to froch bute

    I don't think this fight would happen, let alone stadium. Degale doesn't have enough pull . Perhaps after James makes a few defences - avenging the Groves defeat would pull in a lot of casuals despite Groves' poor record!

    degale needs to fight and win in a few ring wars to reach stadium level , if he can do that then its a possible huge fight for the future .

    I think so, if marketed correctly. GGG is a huge star, and despite a lot of people disliking James, he is well-known in the UK, so people may even come to see him lose to GGG. Great fight in m opinion.

    I doubt it. Probably not enough money in it to make it worth DeGales while.
