I have never seen Herring fight so can’t really comment but Frampton is no super featherweight for me!
Frank mentioned that Willie Hutchinson fights in Feb, so I think that will land on this. Jamel Herring vs Carl Frampton Anthony Caccace vs Lyon Woodstock (British Title) Willie Hutchinson vs Lennox Clarke (British Title) Proper show this.
I’d expect Agyarko to appear on the card too. So should be a decent show. I seem to remember reading about Warren signing a couple of other Irish lads last year, but they have never been on one of his cards. Their names escape me. One might have been called Murty.
I listened to his podcast with James English the other day and he seems very confident and motivated for this fight - he sees the weight as being a big issue for Herring and explains he's used to fighting bigger men. So we shall see. Also touched upon the McGuigan fall out............ he ****ing hates them lol
Herring has a wonderful story, and is an incredibly likable guy, but if Frampton is even a fourth of the fighter that took on Santa Cruz in the rematch, and he is. He should handle Jamel with relative ease.
Frank confirmed yesterday the Hamzah Sheeraz vs Troy Williamson fight has been made. I assume this could be main or co main on a different show. What a fight that is. IBF and WBO ranking up for grabs
He's clearly on the decline so it may boil down to how far down that slope he's gone. Good to see him fighting for another title regardless. I enjoy watching him fight, hope he can do it.
In that James English interview he as good as admitted he only has a maximum of 3 fights left, and he is now fighting for his retirement fund. He knows he is towards the end and needs the biggest money fights possible. When you are in that mindset, losses that wouldn’t happen start to happen.
Is his interview with Umar IFL, said it's confirmed and will be their next fights. He also said they are nearing a Charlie Edwards world title, Sunny Edwards by the end of the year. Liam Williams will fight in the US. They are 20/80 for the purse bids so with no UK gate they cannot win the bid. Joyce vs Usyk is starting negotaions but would entertain Chisora if this fell through.
Good to hear about sunny and Charlie Edwards. Thought there was something funny going on with Sunny, he took any mention of being signed to Frank Warren out of all his social media bios
Frank doing well at the minute. Doesn’t scream and shout like Hearn but putting some good fights/shows together.
Frampton cements his place in the hall of fame with a win here and goes down as a top 10 ATG UK fighter, imo
