    Why are you so butthurt about it? DeGale isn't close to deserving such a fight. He shouldn't even mention Froch until he's earned his way there. He's seriously jumping the gun.

    Groves would pull a Haye vs Wlad and make Froch angry and frustrated. He wouldn't win a minute of a round but he would never let Froch beat him up. DeFrail on the other hand would try to fight and shoulder-roll and act all GETTO and would get his arse burst like a frozen water mains.

    A DeGale win is Quite Possible Really

    exactly. I don't like Degale but critcizing him for this is simply ridiculous. He even acknowledges that the fight won't happen untill next year and that he needs to continue to improve and win ( and he even mentionned he got to win a title ) for it to happens. It seems some of these guy's would want him to say that he's a fraud and that being already 26 y.o., with a loss and no superstar status, he should retire

    Yup. Nothing wrong with having ambition.

    The funniest thing about this ridiculous criticism from the likes of Feebs is that when compared to their boy Ricky Hattons career after 15 fights, Chunky shits all over the Hitman. British and European Champion, plus he's already shown the balls to take on his biggest domestic rival - Hatton never done that.

    .. and now you compare DeGale with Hatton. Im sure Fat boy would love that but the rest of us just think you're crazy.

    Degale fights ageing contenders, goes 12 rounds some times he looks OK other times he looks awful - Slice is impressed.

    Frampton destroys ageing contenders - Slice is not sold

    Of course I'm comparing DeGale with Hatton, facts are facts, Chunky has done more at this stage of his career than Hatton managed in his.
     
  12. DeFail is awful as we allknow...however, I don't see anything wrong with him wanting whatever fights he can get.

    But also, as we all know as well - a Froch fight is a career-ending fight.

    Lets compare them at the end of his career. We wont have that long to wait :crafty:

    We'll see.

    Let me know when Hatton fights Witter, even if he'd been successful in his comeback I reckon he'd have bottled it from that fight

    The new kid calls out the champ - that's how it works.

    People dont like Fat boy for a reason, despite his best efforts to get the fans onside. Most see right through him

    Hatton fought and beat better fighters than Witter. The only person that wanted that fight was Witter. I dont blame him, he wanted to get paid.

    Hatton beating koysta is better than ANYTHING DeGale could dream of..


    and that lad is a dreamer

    Witter had a chance to beat Hatton way back when....as time went on, Hatton proved to be superior, and less of a punk bitch.

    Chunky's a kind soul. You guys choose to think different. Going back to the Groves fight, they genuinely didn't get on, which was obvious to see and that's fine. We know all know they dislike each other. We all have someone we don't get on with. In the build up to that one, Chunky was 'selling the fight'. He did it extremely well.

    DeGale has a 'big' win in him. He's still practically green remember. Yes his career has stagnated a bit but he's back on track now and looks more determined than before. The Groves loss is a blessing in disguise IMO.

    Hatton fought Tszyu in his 39th fight. DeGale's only had 15 fights. Still early days for him.

    Where did I criticise Defail for wanting this fight or where did I say I didn't want this fight to happen? :dunno: Some of you fuckers need to learn to read. I clearly said that I want this fight to happen really soon.

    Wrong choice of path for DeGale by going for Froch. He should avoid him at all costs IMO.

    Where did I criticise Defail for wanting to fight Froch? I sincerely hope he gets his wish and fights Carl.

    Disgusting attitude.

    And you agree that DeGale has shown far more bottle after 15 fights than Hatton showed at the same stage of his career?

    :lol:

    Well it is Carl Froch after all. Very, very risky fight for DeGale, especially if he's considering wanting to take him on in 12 months. You never know though, we could see a rapid decline in Froch between now and then, but I doubt it.

    Go for Abraham, DeGale. You'll beat that robot.

    Sure. Hatton was completely overprotected and lost his best years thanks to that cunt werren. That doesn't change the fact that Defail has lost the only fight he has had against a live body and if he fights Froch he gets lit up like a Christmas tree.

    Seems to be a lot of dumb cunts who don't know how to read in this thread

    nobody was criticizing DeGale for wanting to fight Froch, as far as I can see

    they were criticizing him for being a dumb enough cunt to think he has a chance in hell of winning or that he's in Froch's class at all

    He has a great shot at beating Froch

    So he acts the prick to sell fights. My bad, I had him down as a full timer
