    People forget Darren was 26 at the Olympics when he got the Brooze , DeGeale was only 22 & won gold at the same Olympics beating Darren in the semi final , When Darren beat James ,James was only 21 still a boy

    James was a British . European & WBC silver champion before the age that Darren passed away , He was world champion just after his 29th birthday & Darren was only 4-0 in all 6 round bouts when he died at 27 ,

    Darren could have had a great career but i think James was always levels above him,

    Very very sad that we will never know for sure he seemed a lovely lad ,
