    Check Frochs first five years. Fought absolutely no one of note!

    There is time for De Gale. Isnt he the Euro champ? Thtas further forward than Froch was 5 uears in to his career.
    Froch didn't turn pro with a Gold medal and headline PPV cards in his 11th/12th fight. The point is - DeGale is less relevant now than back then. Sad

    I quite like DeGale, I think he's a top talent. He's thick as shit. But I don't hold that against people

    James must have thought he had the world at his feet when he won the Olympics but after 5 years and 1 loss he is experiencing how unforgiving boxing can be.
    Audley was a letdown but he stayed in the public eye. James has gone into obscurity so must be disappointed how his career is progressing especially as the new crop of Olympians have come through. The focus is on them and people have forgotten about him

    He'll have an eye on froch vs groves and as long as he keeps winning he will get to world class. The guy has talent just hasn't really proven it in the pros

    There is something in his style I find more interesting than Groves (as a comparison). He puts combinations together, gets in close and uppercuts.

    Dont know how good his chin is but if its ok and he can sort his fitness out (although hes with Jim McDonell who sposed to be a fitness freak so youd think of anything he wouldnt get or look as tired as he has done) then he could well outwork alot of fighters. For me though he has a lot more to work on.

    Groves might surprise us all and make Froch look stupid, which is something I can see and Froch knows has a chance of happening as hes already asked Groves basically to stand still before the press conference to announce the fight was even held!

    Froch has a good chance of losing and then could lose to DeGale in a comeback and his career is ruined.

    Since De Gale has been on channel 5 I have liked him, he seems more down to earth and humble. He will need to take his time and win a trinket.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I wouldn't mind either. Just to hear what kind of excuse he'll come up with if he loses

    He's clearly not gay because you wouldn't watch him
