British super-middleweight James DeGale has said that he was pleased with his win over Stjepan Bozic yesterday night.
DeGale stopped his opponent after five rounds to defend his WBC silver belt and is still on course for a world title shot.
He also revealed that he had been fighting with an injury recently and reiterated his desire to fight Carl Froch.
"[Bozic] could not take it anymore," DeGale said afterwards. "I have boxed my last four fights with a knee injury, but my knee is perfect now. It was not a vintage performance but it was nice and I'm pleased.
"Carl Froch is a fantastic fighter but everyone is making him out to be like The Terminator, who can't be beaten. He has lost before and I think I'm all wrong for him."
DeGale improved his record to 16-1 with his sixth consecutive victory since a 2011 loss to George Groves.
