    Alright they mate.I hear that Oscar de la hoya is interested in Degale to!I reckon he'll turn pro with the money being so great.It'll be far too hard to turn that kind of money away.I mean he has achieved the best prize of the games and theres titles to be had in the paid ranks,plus he's 22 year old which means he'll be at least 26 when the 2012 London games kick off.And if he fancies turning pro then,then i think he'll have left it too late.Fours years is to long to wait for another Gold.If i were him now,i'd have a family holiday aboard somewhere to think things over and to clear my mind then when i get back i'd see which promoter is offering the best contract and then go from there.

    I've just had a thought but Hattons New promotion might be interested in him.

    its a tough one, if he does stay for the olympics and gets gold in london 2012 the rewards will be mega! But saying that would he even qualify with maybe better youngsters coming through in the next few years. And if he turned pro the financial rewards will be big, i know odh is talking to frankie gavin so will be interested in degale after picking up gold.

    He has to go Pro, no guarantee he will get to the games and if he does i think it will be long odds to repeat gold again.

    Hes no bum, but i don;t think he is that great, and with the $1mill on offer for him t turn pro no doubt he should. if he doesnt he will be like 27 before he first pro fight, way to late to turn pro, way to late.
