Dwyer: "James DeGale Beats Andre Dirrell, Lucian Bute and Mikkel Kessler" (Video)

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Well, I'm not convinced enough to bet on him against top opponents. But if he's really an effective switch hitter in the ring, I wanna watch his fights.

Go to Frank Warren's youtube page, most of his fights are on there

I'm sure a Bute left uppercut as DeGale comes in will change Dwyer's opinion instantly.

[BoxCleva]

That certainly is a bold statement

And at such an early stage of Degale's career he appears to already be a high caliber fighter but his level of opposition so far might be the reason why. I guess time will tell, those fights could happen down the line.

For sure, he could be the goods but he still has a lot to prove.

Pretty much thought everyone stopped taking that guy's opinion seriously.

That is where Im at. Sad, because I used to like to hear his thoughts before the big fights. But he is so off now its like he just stopped caring.

[Silencers]

DeGale has talent and has gotten better fight by fight and I think he'll beat Groves but the top guys at 168 is too big a step for him right now. Maybe in a couple of years time if he keeps up his progress.

[Earl-Hickey]

Show me another fighter, at 168 who beat someone as good as smith in their 9th fight

heres bute's


Dirrels


wards


Kesslers (he has 78 losses!)


frochs




All complete BUMS, not even journeyman, 100% tin cans

so degale is doing very well by comparrison

[Mr. Philadel]

DeGale is gonna slap Groves around...thats for sure!!!....as far as the elite in the division.....in a year or 2 he'll be slapping them a round as well...DeGale got next!!!

Uhmmm.... In his 9'th fight Kessler fought an 11-1 opponent. Kessler was 19 years old. DeGale is 24. By the time Kessler was 24 he was the WBC international champion.

DeGale is a good prospect but pull another one.



As for Dwyer, well he's been on the downside for some time now.

[bboy80]

That is an extremely bold prediction. I think the best he's prob faced in sparring would be Nathan Cleverly.

If he overcomes groves which most think he will, Magee would pose a proper test.
