Comments Thread For: James DeGale: I'm Too Big a Risk To Froch and Groves

[Weebler I]

every year he says he's gona have a big next year, step up or do somthing or retire.

Sounds like he's ready to get rid of his promoter:

He must not remember Groves beating him already, its hard to imagine any fighter in that weight class being afraid of James DeGale, what a clown.

I'm not a fan of Goves,Foch or DeGale,but deGale is talking tripe of h highest order,Froch is worlds away from both the young pretenders,it's actually laughable reading press reports like these Froch fightin and defeating these two does nothing for his legacy,it's a no win scenario for Froch unless he knocks them out early.the reason Froch is so agitated and angered by Groves is simple,it's because Carl has spent 18 months of hard work with solid wins to build himself into a ppv force after David Haye spoilt it for everyone else in the UK.Froch is worried with Groves style it'll make him look like a poor technician again after his troubles against Ward,Dirrell and Taylor.

DeGale needs to get off of his arse and earn a shot by defeating a weak link like Bika or Chavez Jr,although I doubt he would beat Julio,even in the poor shape in campaigns in.

Nothing against DeGale,but he obviously looks at Stieglitz and realises he would be schooled,and understands he hasn't the promotional team with the financial muscle to get him the Bika fight.seems he's trying the same blueprint many others have,talking themselves into a fight,in this case against a guy who who isn't as technically gifted as Ward and Stieglitz.

So what's the Dyah guy like?
Checked the odds 6/1 for the win as much as 10/1 for KO and 14/1 for points win.
Is this biased because I'm looking on uk sites and it's in the uk...?
Does Davis have any good wins?
I saw he won last time out by ko

Would you back a guy you've stated you no nothing about ? No offence ! If you're talking about money stick it on DeGale for a late stoppage.I don't gamble.however that is my opinion,I am no Nostradamus though.their simply is no way Davis wins this fight.

Yeah I'd back someone I knew nothing about. I don't bet big and I just enjoy a fight that I'd otherwise consider a little low key.
Plus I'm not a Degale fan, sometimes I prefer the back the one you don't like so if he wins your happy and if he loses yoh are happy.
The rest of the time I look for true value in a bet.

I'm cool with that fair point.

I'm not a DeGale fan either.no value in a bet against this dude though hoss.its a keep busy fight for DeGale whilst he tries talk his way into a world title fight,think back to Groves facing Noe Gonzales,just a keep busy fight to make him look good in preparation for a title fight.only deGale isn't really any closer to an actual world title fight than he was his last outing,which was another gimme fight.
