    At super B I'd have frantic a clear fav


    But at feather with the height and reach advantage I think LSC may be a light fav here.

    Hope I'm wrong though. Gramps on is better technically but the size and the workrate could be tough for frampton.

    It would be great if he can get the win here

    Perfect - was planning a trip to NY this summer. Will be attending this 100%. Unfortunately I think Carl will be chopped up and beaten on points/late stoppage

    Imagine wanting to fight a guy who might not even be bothered to turn up
     
  5. Who cares? Carl's a coward who bottled a proper challenge in Rigo.

    He's a joke paper champ.

    The only way Frampton can win this fight is if he makes LSC box on the back foot for the majority of it.

    LSC doesnt look as strong going backwards but I don't think Carl is big or strong enough to do it for me.

    LSC stoppage around round 9.

    LSC late rounds stoppage.

    Although I picked Quigg to beat Frampton and personally I think Quigg fought the wrong fight, Frampton was allowed to fight at his own pace for the first half of the fight yet was hanging on and looking out on hus fight towards the end when Quigg actually began to fight.

    Now regarding LSC we know he won't allow Frampton to dictate the pace and this is were Frampton could come up short. Will he have the strength and power to keep LSC off him I don't think so.

    Throw into the mix LSC just decimated Kiko and all the cards point to LSC.

    Really?

    The state of his face would disagree, i feel LSC is an overprotected limited boxer who can only fight one way,

    Hes faught no live opponents yet, His best win is Mares and Mares was an average to good fighter in the first place but hes looked half that since he got KO'ed by Gonazalez

    LSC was hardly convincing that night

    I feel ppl see a persons nationality and automatically assume they are something they are not

    This is a bigger step up for LSC than it is for Frampton.

    Behave yourself.

    Who has Frampton FOUGHT besides Quigg ?

    Didn't Frampton and his circus label Scott a paper champ with a paper belt that was WON BY EMAIL ?

    Didn't Frampton and his circus label LSC a FRAUD ?

    Funny how insecure people like to move goalposts after the fact.

    By the way, where did you get that Frampton - Quigg ringside seat from ?

    No, this isn't the Rigo fight posters on these boards (myself included) would have liked but it is a good fight that I will enjoy watching.

    If Quigg takes on Rigo too, it'll be a good year of fights from the British former SBW titlists.

    Im the same as a lot on here...a big frampton fan.
    And although lsc hasnt got the skillset of carl frampton this is a tuff fight for carl. As has already been mentioned carls best chance is to put lsc on the backfoot but i dont see him been able to do that for long enough but if he can mix that in with good movement after shots and a real tight defence carl can pinch enough pts to outscore lsc.
    Thats the best case i can make for carl, a tight pts win although if he aint able to do any of that then lsc will win this imo.
    I feel lsc is a slight fav here but if carl uses "his boxing brain" he can outpoint lsc.
