    Thanks to Frank Warren's cherry picking of opponents most of his fighters are only respected in the UK. Rest of the world does not give them credit because they don't fight enough top competition. By the way Hamed and Naseem are the same person.

      I don't know much about this guy other than winning the gold, but I like how he didn't return fire. He simply asked why Joe and Haye singled him out. The best thing he can do is exactly what he proposed, make them eat their words. Actually, just Joe... poor Haye has his coming later this year.

        My bad. I meant HATTON, naseem and Calzaghe. There is some truth to what you're saying. But it's important for young fighters to make a name for themselves. Once they've done that they can make their own fights like Hatton is doing now. So I respectfully disagree with you in your opinion that Degale signing with Warren is a bad move.

          DeGale looks to me like being a serious non-puncher of Malignaggi proportions. I like the guy, and if it all goes ****-up; he's earned a £1.5 million at least.

          Realistically though, Sutherland would knock him out 9/10 times if they ever meet, and that's just domestically.

            But don't you realise that most of these boxers got their best fights when they left Warren?
            He's good for building you up safely but there's only so long you can go without fighting good competition to get you ready for the big time.

                Well Calzghe got Hopkins with Warren. And Hatton got tsyzu with Warren also.

                But if you think that Warren's good for building you up safely then why do you think Degale made a blooper by signing with Warren?

                  Man, I'd sign with Warren if I were a boxer.
