You obviously didn’t watch the Selby fight as that was a good watch.

I would much rather watch the smaller guys who are far better conditioned and technically better than two units like Whyte and Chisora who will gas after about 4 rounds.
Tbf Chisora and Whyte are usually gassing after their ringwalks.

Easy win for Canelo last night. Don't blame fielding for taking the opportunity but a massive gulf in class.

 

Interesting news that ITV have signed a deal with Al Haymon to screen 15 fight nights a year as well as Haymon putting on some shows in the UK.

Heading down to Manchester Friday night for the fight next weekend, a huge following for both fighters heading across from Leeds and over from Belfast, should be a cracking atmosphere!



Who’s your money on?

Hoping Frampton can do it noticed that Warrington has a massive reach advantage so hoping that doesn’t go against Frampton

Think like most people, Warrington's win over *Selby came as a huge shock. The head collision(s) aside, he outworked his opponent without question. Frampton won comfortably enough against Luke Jackson in August but hasn’t hugely impressed since losing his belt and unbeaten record to Santa Cruz early last year in Vegas. I’m still going to go for Frampton though. Neither fighter is heavy on the gloves but think it will be full of energy (hopefully), they’ll both engage and deliver an entertaining fight with Frampton winning on points by a couple of rounds.

That’s me, what do you reckon?

*Briefly met Lee Selby in Vegas (for the Frampton/Santa Cruz fight), after his own bout had unfortunately been called off the day before the fight, seemed a really decent lad btw.

Frampton has operated at a much higher level than Warrington. I didnt think Warrington was at the correct level to beat Selby though so you could argue that he is rising and Frampton is potentially falling and the question then is have they intersected yet.

Its going to be a fucking hard fight. An absolute grueller IMO

Have loved watching Frampton since first seeing him against Martinez the first time.  Warrington was excellent against Selby.  Bookies odds are too wide imo.

 

Whyte Chisora will be good but an absolute rip off on PPV. Card as a whole is an absolute joke.

Yep, Warrington looks good value at 7-4, Frampton as tight as 4-7 with some bookies. Think it’s a much closer call than that. Also none of the usual shite flinging from either fighter, that has sadly become the norm in the pre-fight build up. Just two decent professional lads all set to go. Good stuff.
