    Agreed. To call him a bum as some have is pathetic. The standard of posting on the General Forum is a ****ing embarrassment to the sport. But there is nothing wrong with looking at a fighter after 12 fights or after 3 fights and judging what you see and where you think their talent will take them.

    Personally I don't think he has much power, his defence is fairly awful and he fights in bursts without the ability to sustain more constant pressure or output.

    Some things will improve but there is nothing there other than hand speed that remotely looks like an elite level fighter to me.

    Well, there's plenty of olympic champs who never made it to the pros, darling.
    Degale looks to park into that gallery; but listening to him, he's already winning vs Kessler.

    Loudmouth cockney hypejob.

    He aint glass jawed but he aint granite either and he is hella easy to hit, he IS a ko waiting to happen because of this.

    He says he wants Kessler in 2/3 fights? Thats flat out delusional
