    No chance for Frampton at that weight. Perfectly packed for the division he's in and should stay there. Any ideas of leaving at this point are ridiculous and more likely down to bad advice (greater potential for Haymon in-house fights at 126) than any actual physiological necessity.

    Barry Mc wouldn't let Frampton fight Quigg. After seeing his man floored twice by the no.56 super-bantam, there's no way he's letting his golden goose near Selby.

    Selby would outpoint Frampton with his skills, size and reach.

    Playing devils advocate here (not trolling) would everyone that has Selby winning fairly routinely have held the same opinion before last weekend? It seems one **** round has changed a lot of opinions,bookies everywhere will be the big winners on the back of last weekend if this fight ever happens, i have a feeling this will be a fight they consider will "always be there" much like khan v Brook etc

    I'm like most here and see a 95% chance of a Selby W, still, albeit a predictable outcome, it's still a clash of styles I'd like to see.
    Really, really can't see it actually happening though....

    lol if you had put this thread after the Avalos fight I'm sure 90% of people would have said Frampton

    One bad performance from Frampton doesn't take away the fact he had countless fights in a row looking punch perfect, hardly getting hit and looking like a future p4p star.

    Selby struggled with Ryan Walsh and Viorel Simion..... can't see him beating Frampton

    Selby is a much better fighter than Frampton remove his size advantage and he would still out box Frampton.

    Selby schools Frampton, and probably drops him on the way to a points win. Frampton would need to make sure his whiskers are on par.

    Selby wins this on points for me.

    Size and reach advantages would be too much for Frampton to overcome.

    Selby would box his head off and stop him within 8 rounds.

    stay of the drugs pal its messing with your mind. Selby would control frampton with ease. frampton wont even fight Quigg. framptons best win was beating Martinez the same fighter Quigg destroyed in two rounds.
