    Casey would be a quality last minute replacement really!

    Munroe would be even better but completely unlikely.

    Maybe Martinez has a world title fight on cards? and been paid to vacate with chance to win title back somewhere along line if unsuccessful?

    Nothing to do with step aside money, Kiko is just unreliable, as ive said, this isnt the first time hes done this, and not only when irish fighters were fighting for a vacant belt.

    edit: just read that its due to his fathers illness, so its a legit reason this time:

    Munroe does have a fight scheduled for September, so I'm sure he's ready to go.
    It would be worth offering it to him anyway. He might look at it as a good way to get back into the world title picture.

    Needs to fight the likes of Casey anyways. Too early for him to be taking on Martinez or Munroe. Possibly a blessing in disguise.

    This. I think Frampton may have dodged a bullet here.

    Brilliant!! I had Frampton, Degale and Robert Guerrero in my fantasy team because of their up coming fights, and they all pull out! FML!!!

    That has ruined a night of boxing for me. I'm sick of seeing 1 decent fight. Boxing cards should be at least 5 good fights deep. That was going to be a good night with Frampton stepping up to face Kiko.
