    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.
    All you do is compare fighters, against each other.

    Your comparison is DUMB.

    DeGale turned pro as a gold medalist, he was still only 22.
    Froch turned pro quite late, at 25, and he doesn't have the excellent amatuer career DeGale does.

    Young olympians and gold medalists usually get brought on at a fair pace, look at Lomachencko.

    course its a good comparison, what does it matter what they did before they turned pro?

    their professional careers are being compared and ross reckons degales is a bit further forward than frochs was at the same time (and i tend to agree)

    nowt wrong with that

    Shows how much you know.

    Froch won bronze at the world amateur championships in 2001 which is arguably harder than the olympics.

    Forget their ages, its the time scales. Froch was a pro for 5 years before he faced anyone that had been anywhere near world level. De Gale has face fighters that have been in world class company and even faced ex world champion. In February DeGale will also have abeen a pro 5 years but he would also have faced far better oposition than Froch did who looked as if he was going nowhere and in no rush either.

    Froch has since proved he is a world class warrior , DeGale will not because he is garbage.

    Thats my point.

    DeGale has done well against better opponents and if Froch can do as well as he has done after his mediocre start then there is hope for DeGale.
