    Just with all the talk and the antics at weigh in between Wilder and Fury they seem to be intent on hijacking the show, Frampton has talked for years about his dream of fighting a Windsor park and the spotlight is getting taken away from him.

    Big deal. Frampton will fight on the main event slot, and because of Fury and the Wilder stuff the fight is being carried on Showtime in the states and the viewing figures on BT will be astronomical which will also help Carl for future fights interms of his purse.

    Would help if Frampton was in a decent fight. Like for a world title

    Honestly who cares about Frampton’s “big night”. The reason why we are seeing him box an underwhelming opponent is because he demanded to fight in the stadium. Stadiums should be reserved for massive world title fights.

    Exactly!! " Framptons big night " against some random Australian just because he is ranked in the WBO. Very underwhelming fight!!

    It does feel like there stealing the lime light, but why did they choose Luke Jackson ?

    I should say this isn't to air grievances for Frampton.

    I just find it amusing he's talked for years about his big Windsor park fight which Frank Warren promised (and delivered tbf).

    Only for old fish eyes to finesse him be putting Fury on the under card and have him fight some WBO bum.

    They picked him because Frampton rushed it because he’s a drama queen.

    My casual mate text and asked if anyone wanted to watch the fury fight, the rest replied saying it would be in about half ten as it's min fight etc.. I told them frampton was main fight etc and not a reply, they don't know who he is...

    The only decent looking fight on the card is Paddy Barnes. Frampton wanted his Windsor fight so badly, he’d have fought his way out of a paper bag in the middle of the pitch. It’s a P take.
