Pavlik is made for degale really...would be good match making from that wiley old fart warren.
Mind you...we have not seen degale in against anyone of the class of pavlik yet. It is a great match up.
Degale will always struggle against boxers unless he improves his footwork, also he clearly needs to step up his sparring from what I saw in the Groves fight, he seemed clueless. He should have been sparring the best buys at 168-175 since he turned pro, but really hasn't been.
I see Pavlik -- especially in his present state, ie. much deteriorated, both technically and confidence-wise, from his past form -- being tailor-made for DeGale.
Maybe James could do with one or two more fights, though - you have to respect the level that Pavlik has mixed at.
