His purse was $1m for this fight. He would have made more for the Quigg fight and could have made more fighting in Belfast.
Nothing to see here folks, move on. Why isn't anybody giving Leo any credit for the win ? All i keep hearing is Frampton had an off night, and now to top it all off a conspiracy theory !! And as for him and his team taliking about KO'ing Leo, pure fantasy. Frampton has proven nothing power wise at Featherweight, and i don't think he was a particularly devastating puncher at SBW. Only top level opponent he's dropped was a tiring Martinez, the same Martinez who Leo and Quigg demolished. Frampton beat Leo's corpse in the first fight. The real Leo turned up for the second fight, and Frampton got out boxed, out punched, and outsmarted.
You thought the fight was very close and scored it a draw, but think Frampton threw the fight? How does that work?
Frampton was losing on the outside, he couldn't get the range right and was getting countered by LSC whenever he would miss, it's pretty clear his team thought the same LSC will show up and didn't train for this version like you said. But let's face it, the only reason why last time Frampton was able box the way he did was because Leo was rushing in I will maintain a patient faster counter puncher will be Framptons kryptonite and that's why he wanted no parts of Rigo and in Leo's case it's his height that gave him the edge. Selby whilst I don't think his spectular is a good boxer (your right his brother is more impressive). He has the height and the boxing skills to pull off Leo's tactics to greater effect.
Lol I know,I must of worked that one out when I was about five year old,"mummy how do those poor people afford guns n ammo"? Lol
Well you said it the very fact everyone would want to see a third fight is testament to how well both guys have fought,I think one of the reasons Ward is unhappy with the media and fans is because he hasn't received the pound for pound adulation he was promised but unlike Frampton and Cruz who both boxed each other's ears off Ward totally stunk the joint out,those two did neither.
Frampton never dominated LSC in the first fight it was close. Frampton seemed to win the first half and LSC the 2nd half of the fight. Frampton was clearly the better tactician, better boxer, while LSC did better putting on the pressure. In the rematch, LSC used his jab as a main weapon and it made Frampton think twice and disrupted his rhythm over and over again. LSC is not a Margarito style fighter, he is not one dimensional, and like mentioned dozens of times before, the brawler outboxed the boxer. Not the first and won't be the last time something like this will happen. I also don't think the fight should take place in Belfast they'd rob LSC. That's why Vegas was neutral ground, NY supports Frampton just like L.A. would heavily support LSC. Keep it in Las Vegas.
True that i was at the first fight in bk the crowd swayed the judges descion.alot of people in the arena thought lsc won .
LSC boxed with his brain more in the second fight. Didn't just let his hands go recklessly like they both did in the first. Let's be honest, the first fight could've gone either way and frampton had a lot of success. But his approach was the same whereas LSC defended a lot better whilst landing enough to win rounds
No chance LSC had a great game plan and stuck to it. Frampton made no adjustments from the first fight and paid the price for it.
Lots of deniers here. Probably the sort whod still think climate change is a hoax when they're house is underwater. It's clear as day.
