By Scott Gilfoid: James DeGale (10-1, 8 KO’s) is ready to put some distance between him and his last defeat against George Groves last May by going after European Boxing Union (EBU) super middleweight champion Piotr Wilczewski (29-1, 10 KO’s) on September 17th in what should be an easy schooling for the talented DeGale in London.
DeGale vs. Wilczewski
Still no big fights for Groves; DeGale fights for EBU title against Wilczewski
By Scott Gilfoid: The excuse that George Groves’s team gave for not giving the talented James DeGale (10-1, 8 KO’s) a badly needed rematch was that Groves was moving on to bigger and better things after Groves won a controversial 12 round majority decision in May.
DeGale-Wilczewski in September: Who is Wilcewski?
By Joe Unsworth: So the recently beaten James DeGale has been given a great opportunity to challenge for the European belt. This is a big opportunity for DeGale, because he lost his last fight and as a result, a lot of people now doubt his credentials. I still believe DeGale has the qualities to go a long way in boxing, but how far we will have to wait and see as his weight division is one of the strongest in boxing at the moment if not the strongest.
