    Sadly this gonna show how depressed the FW division is without an active GRJ and Loma to give it flare.

    But Donaire has what LSCwas severely lacking.
    One punch power.

    Frampton by decision but several scares along the way

    ND would have been a great win a few years ago. Not now. Saying that it might start helping Frampton get his mojo back should he win & send us to a Selby, GRJ or a Valdez fight! Good fight's..

    Wow, just watched Donaire vs Magdaleno.

    I can see why people are writing him off. Donaire looked pathetic in that fight. Give credit to Magdaleno he has more youth, speed and power at this point than Frampton who looks slowish.It's fair to say Donaire is SHOT AF! but power is still there.He can't handle these youngens LOL. But Carl is not young bloke himself.

    I do feel like Frampton does slacks off on some rounds as stated previously.
    The Garcia fight was great tho. I think people underestimate how good Garcia is.

    Great? I don't think even I'd go that far... I think in the first half of the fight, particularly first 4 rounds I think, Carl looked sharp, and scary accurate, which most people seemed to immediately forget.

    But he did then get dragged into a dog fight which doesn't suit him, and didn't look good on him, his stamina wasn't looking great and that could be a major concern, but all remains to be seen I guess

    This is how I see Frampton too - a first-half-of-the-bout boxer. If Donaire has enough gas left in his tank, rounds 6-12 could be a war, and Carl will get dragged into one. Also, I'm a little concerned about Jamie Moore as a trainer. He didn't box with smarts so will he train with them?

    The amount of attention been given to Khans comeback is ridiculous. I'll be watching the BT show and don't really care what happens on Sky's card and care even less about Khans fight against a guy i never heard of.
    If you ask me he should have came back against somebody from the top 10. Not my problem he spent a year out trying to become a celebrity.

    Looking forward to it, I like both fighters, Frampton didnt look that great in his last bout and Donaire is not in his prime either but still good fighters that can produce an exciting fight which I think it will be

    I'll be watching but I can't get too excited about Donaire anymore. I hope Frampton looks great and has his trilogy with Santa Cruz.
