      Stieglitz is small time, that guy is barely b level. I reckon he should fight the other Dirrel brother or winner of Bika/Junior. Btw, what I saw tonight, DeGale needs to stay away from a Groves rematch lol

        He's a 6 rounder fighter. Degale caught up to him towards the end too and that was a true 50/50 fight at the end of the 12th.

          Not just yet, but he did fantastic against his first world-level opponent and showed grit. He needs to get a victory over a top guy first, preferably Stieglitz or Bika.

            If he improves his stamina yes.

              A rematch with DeGale would be terrific. DeGale really needs to get his finger out though as he has fallen miles behind.

                Yep. DeGale looked promising at one time but since the Groves lost has been on and off. I just think groves is too good for him now, the first fight was VERY close but now it would be a walk in the park for Groves, mark my words.

                  If he improves his stamina he can go far, almost every rd after the 1st he seemed to be breathing heavy half way through.
                  I'd prefer him not to rematch froch, as if he gets legitimately stopped late on it will hurt his future prospects

                    Stamina will cost him, I believe.

                    The fact it was Froch's chin of steel may be the reason why, but his punches stopped having an effect on him after 5. He was landing big, but having no effect and then he started getting caught and was in real trouble.

                    Style wise, I think he'd give Ward problems. He's a really good boxer and he is very strong to wrestle with Ward. Stamina would be the problem.

                      You could make a strong argument for number 3 ... top 5 without a shadow of doubt.
