James Degale

[skel1983]

Quite ironic that Degale won the Olympic Gold, as alot of people back in the UK felt he wasnt the strongest Middleweight we have that being George Groves who beat Degale in the ABA's in 2006 and who has just turned pro.

Maybe these two who i think dont like each other at all could be the modern day Benn/Eubank? That would be fun.

I'd love to see another british era like that!

Degale has a $1m offer from an American promoter on the table right now (most probably GBP who signed Frankie Gavin also). I think he'd be nuts to hang on to the 2012 games. What would happen if he didn't get the gold? He wouldn't be getting a 7 figure sum from anyone.

He needs to strike while the irons hot and take the pro contract.

Oscar signed Frankie Gavin already?

Call me a cynic but to me DeGale didn't look very impressive at all. Nobody was happier than me he won a gold, but he wasn't very good in the process.

Poor defence and an open wrist like slapping style. Too much wrestling too! How he'll do in the pro's only time will tell. He was first to admit that he was good at working the amateur scoring system, hit and move, hit and move....

Is David Price going to turn pro ?
