Who did you want DeGale to fight?

He has an eliminator for the world title against Jack in the summer and is taking a stay busy fight in between while the logistics of that fight gets sorted out. It's not hard to understand.

It's not like he's avoiding anyone to take this fight. He has an eliminator in the bag thicko.

How about just someone with a pulse?

Isn't DeGale's best win still Paul Smith? Or is it Wilczewski? I don't think anyone supporting this guy can reasonably discredit Groves' resume. Especially as this is his way to a world title too.

George Groves is not American and neither is Badou Jack my geographically ******ed Yank friend.

I don't care that TMT rejected it. That's their prerogative. Hennessy made an offer, they should make a counter offer or else it goes to purse bids and they may not get the choice.

badou jack fights out of las vegas. he trains at the mayweather gym. who really cares where he was born? what the hell has sweden done for me?

george groves fights out of the shire, and i never implied that he didn't. who really cares about where his mud hut is located?

the groves fight illustrated that UK refs are compleltey incompetent at best, and possibly corrupt. i just think they suck, personally.

Lol Badou Jack is American now?

would you care about him if he were?

He's fighting Badou Jack in an eliminator for the world title this summer. What part of that is failing to process with you?

And how much corruption has there been involving TMT fighters? Most of them are on PEDs and get gift decisions.

Like I said, I don't care that they turned down the fight in the UK. Hennessy made the offer, make a counter offer or stfu.

TMT fighters being shady and the entirety of organized boxing in a country being shady are different things. nobody cares about the TMT fighters other than floyd mayweather fanboys. UK referees and officials aren't fit to oversee an amateur fight. that's the perception, and it's not all that far off.

american boxing fans and administrators don't take your boxing seriously. part of it comes from the complete lack of talent, but the rest comes from the poor decisions and awful refereeing.


lord ward will never get on a plane to get mugged on the cards against froch. you and nelson will have to get over it.

[New England]

Lol, what bull****.

UK boxing is the laughing stock of the civilized world.

[Tom Cruise]

would you care about him if he were?

Obffs i'd b a h8errr if he wuz American...innit

I'm glad you mentioned how corrupt the US is. I was just referring to TMT since that's who Jack is promoted by.

America is the worst for horrendous decisions and horrible refereeing. Timothy Bradley, Devon Alexander, Tavoris Cloud all getting several gifts recently. Andre Ward being allowed to headbutt his way through fights. The likes of Cortez and Smoger babying Mayweather/Hopkins throughout the 12 rounds.

Absolutely disgraceful. You make Germany look above board.
