    No, I doubt it, just because Carl looked below par after taking basically a year off, doesn't mean that he's shot or past it, or should be written off. Garcia is decent, don't read too much into his losses, Diaz is a solid operator as well, and Hasegawa is an absolute beast, the Olguin loss he avenged, that being said, if Frampton hadn't of gassed, he'd have probably beaten Horacio with relative ease. Either he's just outgrown the weight or his conditioning was off for this fight, maybe he can tweak a few things in his next training camp and deal with it. Regardless, guys like Selby and Warrington, while very solid, Frampton is world level, and would bring far more raw skill and talent into the ring with them than any of their opponents have to date, Selby went life and death with a past it Montiel and struggled with the average Eric Hunter, and quite frankly Warrington, as impressive as he looked against the so so Ceylan, he probably should have gotten a draw against Kiko. Quigg I'd pick to beat both of them as well.

    He couldn't smoke a broken jaw'd Quigg. Quigg matched him in the later half even with no jaw left on his face. A more confidant Quiggs starts earlier and may smoke Frampton in a rematch

    As I stated, you are a moron. I've said plenty of boxers are over rated since I been on this forum. Frampton is a bit over rated. What White fighter did I say was over rated in the MMA forum? Weidman? That was a while ago.

    Well in Kevin's defense, you do rag on the most overwhelmingly talented fighter in the sport today Lomachenko, quite frequently, for no apparent reason.

    He never made it to the top. Rigondeaux was in his way, and now Russell Jr. is. He wants no part of either guy. Seems fitting for the cowardly lion of Belfast to be content to go out like that.

    I've done nothing but call Lomachenko one of the best pound for pound guys out there today. The only thing stopping him from being number one is lack of viable opposition on his resume. Have I pointed out his true height? Yes. Have I trashed some of his opponents for quitting, yes. Do I poke fun that he lost to a portly Salido. Yes. Do I give him credit for spanking Russell Jr., yes. Do I laugh at the fact he is going to fight a 5'3 super bantam, but said that 5'8 Crawford is too big for him? Yes. Sounds like I give him the same commentary that I give every other fighter out there. He's a tad over rated at this point, but is he one of the best pound for pound boxers out there? Hell yeah. You should know by now, that I'm overly critical of most boxers. Some of you get too sensitive if it is a boxer that you are fond of. I gave Floyd and Ward the same treatment, and anyone who has been on this forum long enough knows this.
