Making a fist of it: Olympic gold medallist James DeGale looked like a man not to be messed with yesterday as he and his fellow Olympians Frankie Gavin and Billy Joe Saunders visited the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham – the venue of their first professional fights on February 28. The trio are being represented by promoter Frank Warren.
