Comments Thread For: DeGale Still Open To Groves Rematch With 90-10 Split

Still reckon Groves would win again. Badou Jack is as good a fighter as Dirrell imo if not better because of the power he brings to the table

Would you say Badou Jack has that much power?

I wouldn't.

I do agree though that Badou has come a long way since drawing with Periban and getting knocked out in one round by Edwards.

What power? Badou Jack is **** average.

I reckon hes a decent fighter now tbh. Still think Degale beats him if they fight.

On thread i think Groves would be lucky to get his 10%

After the draw with Periban and the horrendous KO to Edwards you'd never expect him to bounce back and beat Groves and Dirrell.

Good on him.

I think Degales a step too far though.

I'd like to see him cash out with Chavez then make the winner fight Degale.

i think he just looks a lot more focussed now he knows he can be ko'd at any time. He has to stay sharp at all times and vs Dirrel and Groves hes done just that. fair play to him

Groves is worth 5% after 3 losses and 2 by KO

Carrot top Georgie Boy Groves is now a professional loser and a constant crybaby complainer whose worth has deteriorated to almost nothing. 5% for flame top is reasonable as DeGale is the champion and groves is scrap more like dog dung. Groves still thinks he won both Froch fights.

George needs to humble himself and get back with Adam Booth

Ever since he got with Paddy, he has been looking drained, and taking unnecessary punishment. People say the Froch fight ruined him, i dont agree. Letting go of Booth is what ruined him.

Adam Booth was a perfect fit for him..

James DeGale talking about George Groves loss to Badou Jack & says "It***39;s funny how things work out"

I'm cracking up

I was annoyed when Carl Froch said George lacks that extra little toughness that separates the good from the elite boxers...now I'm starting to think he could be right. Saturday was prime opportunity not only to win and become champion but to become a star in the USA....his nemesis Degale must be loving it right now.

Ermm - how exactly is DeGale his nemesis?

[SteveM]

I think Grove's stamina is an issue. After the midway point his footwork slowed right down. That meant he couldn't get off his overhand rights so often meaning that Jack came forward more and threw more. Jack was stronger at the weight. Groves is a good boxer but you have to have the stamina, and the chin, to go with it. Don't believe going to LHW is an option so basically he needs to work on improving his stamina - otherwise he is finished.

As for DeGale's trolling, what goes round comes round. He was out-boxed by Dirrell down the stretch and neither Dirrell or DG have any chance against Ward assuming he can still make 168.
