Can ye see LSC ever losing to Frampton again? Personally I doubt it. Frampton needs to 'pick on someone his own size' from now on - LSC is all wrong for Carl - too many physical advantages.
Frampton can beat LSC. He wouldn't be favourite for the rubber match but id say the motivation of getting the one back off the bloke that beat u may inspire him
Who else is he going to fight? He will be beaten by Selby IMO and two defeats to different opponents would leave him with nowhere to go. Would probably have to rematch Quigg for the biggest money fight left for him. He only has three maybe four more fights left IMO anyway. LSC and if he loses that he can have a crack at Selby in a big domestic fight.
I agree ....frampton is very small by current-day featherweight standards - his best option if possible is no higher than 122. But can he still make 122? Certainly he will be at a big physical disadvantage against most current top feathers - like LSC & Selby & Quigg. All are simply too big for him. his future looks bleak.
What a fairweather bunch some people are. Frampton loses a rematch by a few rounds in a reversal of the original result and some people say things like 'he's got nowhere to go' or act as if he's finished. GTFOH with that ****. Of course he's got a chance of winning a rematch and having success against others. He's a very good boxer and shouldn't be thrown on the scrapheap for a solitary loss to another fighter operating on a wo of class level.
Was he 'all wrong for him' in the first fight? Ridiculous thing to type considering the match-up stands at 1-1....
Leo didn't dominate the fight. It was a 7-5 type fight. Carl can beat him, even if Leo uses his height and range again, Carl can win.
Some ridiculous fickle nonsense on here. Cruz will not have the same success with the jab in the next fight , he s played that card , Carl's distance is usually impeccable. Up close its 50-50 . Next fight will be close could go either way. "His future looks bleak" lol, such a ridiculous comment.
Am I the only one not interested in seeing a third fight right now? I didn't find the first one as entertaining as everyone else, let alone last night. I feel like both can take the others shots and it's basically Cruzs 100 plus not troubling punches per round vs framptons windmilling. I'm not trying to put either man down they are both at the top of their division and the top of their game but for me if you watch 1 round of the fight you've pretty much seen all 12 I'd rather see frampton fight selby now although I don't know how the purse split goes as Carl has no belt but would sell the tickets.
I'm only interested if the fight is in Belfast. It adds a whole new dynamic to the fight. American fans are so ****, the place will be rocking, Frampton will be more inspired and we have the mystery whether LSC can cope out of his comfort zone.
Let's be honest here. Good solid pros with skills on show. But barn burning action... No. We are all searching for gatti/ward but I'm afraid this just ain't it
