    Degale has done nothing and fought nobody to earn a title shot. I hope this doesn't happen.

      It's funny how opinions change. A while ago, DeGale was widely labeled as a bum on NSB, who fights in leisure centers on Channel 5.

      Then he signs with Hearn & knocks out a decent but limited Gonzales and he's suddenly the favorite against the Cobra!

      Tbf i've always regarded DeGale as the most talented of the British SMW's and i could definitely see him outpointing an aging Froch.

      I was really hoping that Carl would get his dream fight in Las Vegas, i'm gutted for him.

        Degale has not impressed so far... Froch will walk him down no problem!!

          I would rather watch Kessler - Froch beat each other up once again in war between two real warriors with titanium chins!!

            Lean towards Froch and hope he does it, but as a fan this has 'disaster' written all over it. He wont be able to get up for this fight, it is at London O2 which is DeGale's backyard and it is a massive step down from Wembley. Hearn has not delivered for Carl - he deserves a big American fight not this.

              Hearn could have even got the fight at Nottingham Forrest stadium, in Carl's hometown to try and make it a special night.

                Carl stops him in the middle rounds.

                Easy fight for Froch IMO.

                  Interesting fight. DeGale has better defence and quicker hands than Groves, but doesn't have the power or explosiveness.

                    People said the same exact thing about Groves last year.

                    Why? Kessler is a faded part-timer at this point. He had his rematch and lost.

                      Judges rob degale in a rough and tough fight.
