James DeGale announces split from manager Frank Warren

[SirTomJones]

The Olympic gold medallist James DeGale is to split from manager Frank Warren, it has been announced today.

The 24-year-old shot to prominence four years ago by winning middleweight gold at the Beijing Games.

DeGale turned pro later that year and joined Warren's promotional stable along with fellow Olympians Billy Joe Saunders and Frankie Gavin.

However, DeGale has now confirmed his split from Warren in a statement released by the boxer's solicitors, Blick & Co.

The European super-middleweight champion from Harlesden, London, said in the short statement: "I think it is time for both of us to move on."

Would be great if Eddie Hearn signed him up.
They are gathering a good stable over at matchroom.

[weltercelt]

he should retire while hes at it

[gingeralbino]

Wander whats thats all about, wander if he's pissed of that Warren signed Groves, or maybe Warren didnt want to make a remtach between the 2 of them

Yeah I doubt Groves signing and then not getting a rematch did their relationship any doubt.

Too be honest, I think DeGale will probably be better off without Frank by getting himself back on Sky Sports.

Just seen on Frank Warren's site that DeGale is still under contract until 14th April 2013!

He could move to Philly USA and just hang out at a gym. Go over to the Blue Horizon for fight nite then reconsider his thoughts on boxing. Its the best way to find out if your cut out for the game. Maybe spar there? Trial by fire! Ray

It's the trainer that he needs to change to be honest as he is going know where til he has this sorted out..Maybe move to the states,Or get involved with Tibbs.

Any update on this last I heard Warren was saying that Degale was still under contract..
Shouldn't he have his next opponent named, he has been a bit quiet lately.... or maybe i've missed something?
