    What's going on with chunky? How do you see his career panning out? That lost to Groves seems to have taken away his hype he's hardly mentioned anymore. He obviously a talent and holds the Euro belt but can he get a World belt in very good division? I still like him. He's got a lot to work on but could suprise people if given a shot

    How far James goes depends how quickly (if ever ) he gets rid of his cheerleader mcdonald and gets an even half decent coach let alone world class. Its not to late for james but its getting close.

    He'd do well to wait until Ward moves up and Froch has another hard fight before he goes to world level.

    Steiglitz is a beatable 'champion' as is Magee/Balazay*. He's far away from Froch/Ward and probably Bute too but he'd beat Magee as of now.

    He'll come good, I'm sure.

    Think VVarren has scorned him after he lost to Groves, and didn't Degale also have a few unkind words about the fish-eyed old ****? Frank signing Groves was an ominous sign for Degale's career. He's out of favour it would seem.

    Degale is just a boring guy.

    He's meant to promote them...he did just fine promoting Degale before he lost to Groves.

    Just not active enough at the moment. Neither is Groves.

    He can't sell tickets. I was sitting behind 'his' section of the crowd at his first Wembley Arena fight which is near to his home. Maybe 200 tickets at absolute most. Unfortunately his public personality doesn't match his natural talent and as a certain someone would say, boxing is all about business. Why should ****** back him if, after giving him the signing on fee and (from memory) a lot of PR at the time of turning pro, he doesn't do enough himself to shift tickets? Can see why Hearn would sign him on to try and build more of a London presence but would he sell out Ali Pali or similar venues if not fighting Groves? Don't see it myself.
