He won't exactly be fighting 'bums' will he? Young fighters nowadays are too inactive, doesn't matter if he's British champion...he needs to keep busy.
:yep I think they both realise it's better for their development. Billy Joe Saunders should be keeping very busy this year.
Yeah fair enough...guess they are not the kinda fights I want to be watching on Saturday fight night though.
im looking forward to seeing degale but one 12 round fight for the price of a ticket doesnt seem the best value for money though it would have been difficult to arrange another title fight at short notice
Would like to see Degale live so might just grab a ticket for this now, Billy surely you can sort out a fellow Scotsman
I was thinking Warren should do this anyway... you don't want to keep a fighter with only nine bouts too long without staying active. Hope Gavin stays more active this aswell thinking about it. He only fought three times last year. Not good enough really.
Degale would take alvarez apart. Alvarez is nothing special, not that fast, poor movement, not paricularly skilled, not much defence. Just reasonable heavy hands, and fairly decent offence, He will be exposed by a skilled fighter, or even an iron jawed slugger. Anyways, I wonder who James will fight, maybe another brit.
totally agree degale is the best prospect in britain that's if you can still call degale a prospect being the british chapion :good
