    Default Saw DeGale v. Groves AND....

    DeGale was ROBBED. What a gyp. You don't have to like DeGale, but respect his effort and score honestly.

    DeGale won that fight by at least 3 rounds.

    Brits sure do know how to shoot themselves in the foot. Where can Groves go now? No where.

    I was thinking DeGale won by 4 rounds, Groves was lucky but DeGale was cruising the last few rounds if he had pressed Groves, he could have ko him.

    I'm not a fan of Degale, but I had him winning it by one round. I don't think that's a robbery. The key was that after that fight, Groves kept improving, whereas Degale did jack shit for 2 years. If they fight again, I reckon Groves will win again because I think Degale has a bit of a mental block with Groves. He said himself that Groves would be a harder fight for him than Froch. They know each other too well.

    Where did Groves "improve"?? Because he had one lucky shot vs. Froch?? C'mon...

    Degale lost because he told everyone how he would KO Groves with the first shot he landed.

    I don't think degale lost and it's a massive myth that degale stood still and groves moved on

    Degale has fought better opposition than groves since (apart from froch obviously) and has better wins

    At the time it was a strange fight, a lot to lose and very little to gain for both fighters, both only
    had a hand full of fights or so, DeGale took the lose badly and lost his way, Groves carried on
    learning his trade, and eventually got a Title shot.
    I like George but James is a idiot, leading up to the fight it got personal, and I think public opinion
    went against DeGale , before and after the fight, off he went to skulk away on Ch5 in obscurity.
    Froch V DeGale is a fight that James can win, he would give Carl nightmares with his movment,
    it a fight Froch would not fancy.
    As for Groves you can see what direction he's going, WBO title anyone.!!!!!!!!

    It was a very close fight no robbery. I think from memory I had DeGale winning but it could have gone either way.

    Degale has been injured which is why his career slowed down a bit. Rumours are Chavez fight fell through for Froch so looking likely Degale will fight him next year. Another big money fight so dont see why it wont happen. I give Degale every chance of beating him

    I think I had Degale by one or two from memory.

    Groves tactics were crap. But because he got the decision Booth was hailed a genius.

    Booth is such a bluffer.

    I think DeGale was favourite because Groves had been hurt by Anderson. Groves fought a defensive fight which kind of threw DeGale and just got the nod. I think Groves mind games would cause DeGale to explode.

    best direction on CH5.!!!

    I had Groves winning that fight close. Groves will fight Anthony Dirrell next and it looks more and more like Froch might face DeGale after all.

    It's funny how people go to extremes. So Groves had "one Lucky Shot" vs Froch! Are you dreaming? Go back to the 6th round of 1st fight and tell me how many "lucky shots" He lost both fights, nobody is saying any different, but he gave Froch 2 tough fights and showed he deserved the shot.
    If Groves , didn't "improve," yet gave Froch 2decent fights, then we must be overrating Froch, no? Because if Froch was what we're led to believe, then he should've dealt with a fighter that you believe Groves is like quite easily.
    Now, let's get to Degale. An Olympic Champion with all the fanfares he had, After losing to Groves,He basically sulked for 2 years beating stiffs and looking bored in every post fight interview, clearly disapproving of his promoter. Blaming this all on "being injured for 2 years", all of a sudden the injury clears up and he fights his best fight to date against Gonzales, the guy is a sulking fraud!
    Groves beat Paul Smith better than Degale did, and he beat Glen Johnson better than Froch did. In this time , what the fuck did Degale do?
