The Boxing thread

Yeah I got that impression, the thing with quigg is everyone is quick to write him off against the big names but he can cause people bother because he is technically very good maybe doesn't have the explosive power but he is a very good boxer imo and can craft a gameplan to beat anyone. Its just power that lets him down I think

De Gale looking good so far, needs to pace it against Periban who is very tough.

Lol how long after you wrote that was the KO, cannot stand DeGale as a person but really rate him as a boxer love his aggression really do believe he would cause froch all kinds of problems but we will never find out unfortunately.
 
Periban although was a decent opponent on paper, his physique and attitude i don't think was up to much. However it was a professional performance from DeGale

I had a fiver on Smith points, DeGale KO and Bellew KO... just need a Bellew KO for £145

Thats good batting that pal! Yeah DeGale did the job always looked likely the KO Peribans defences was non existent and DeGale hits heavy as he has shown in his last few fights.

That's confirmed his injury then
 
This is why I have always though Groves will never be WC is way to easy to hit and reckless letting his own off.

Yeah prices wasn't great Joshua at 1/100 for example, tbh not even sure what the point in that fight is Hearn really needs to move him up in class Sprott wasn't even that good 10 years ago only in the domestic scene and even then not great.

He is really struggling with the southpaw stance, maybe seeing DeGale blow away Periban has made him think he needs to perform. Really should just stick to his gameplan and use his speed shouldn't be standing and trading I still think he is mentally scarred from the Froch fight personally.

If he doesn't face a huge puncher then his boxing skills may takeover - For example he probably won 80% of rounds against Froch but was open to the big punch

I agree - when the fight was made it was a decent fight, but Joshua advanced so quickly it has now become a pointless fight
 
Job done for Groves Douglin looked shagged, Groves was really careless early on but his class told in the end.

Was not impressed at all and think Dirrel will beat him.

He will if he fights like that but think Groves has the speed to give him bother, like I said only seen him fight Bika and he looked average then.

Froch fanning the flames saying he will fight winner of degale groves haha doubt it will happen, ddefo looks like he is fighting chavez here comes Joshua I'll be ******* amazed if this goes over 2 can't even call Sprott a has been he is more of a never been(too harsh haha)
