I like Carl alot. Warrington whipped his ass..kind of easily too. At this point we have to say he'll beat Santa Cruz and Valdez no? What about Gary Russell?
Style wise he's hard to time & consistently hit clean because he has a really good tight guard, keeps his head low too so his chin is protected (he also looks very durable) & he's always moving, never really plants or sets his feet which is probably why he's known to have 'feather fist' which looking at Carl's face I wouldn't agree with... Awkward, unpredictable, fast, can fight on the inside & at range. Fairly big FW too.. Full of confidence too! He's legit. Carl is a fantastic boxer puncher type & he couldn't figure him out! He's the surprise package of 2018 IMO He's my #1 FW right now. LSC & Valdez? I'd lean towards Warrington.. But as we keep seeing ANYTHING is possible in the states! I can never confidently pick a Euro fighter on points anymore...
Good job I found this as I was gonna make same thread.Think it’s a case of him always being the underdog which has obviously belied the fact that he wins by skill. Most of us would probably have Cruz,Russel and Valdez as massive favourites and that’s exactly how he wants it to stay imo.
I dont think we'll see Frampton on top ever again. Shame. His first fight with Santa Cruz was epic. I have must have watched 3 times already.
