Irish Boxing

Thanks Fra, I seen him fight in the stadium on a Peters show. He must be making a comeback:think.

 

Looks like O'Donnell has cried off. According to the *********** article, he left a note in the gym saying he had the flu and wasn't fighting. Apparently Steve Goodwin said he isn't answering any calls. Strange if true.

 

Any word on how Con Sheehan got on?

 

He's not fighting until next Tuesday as far as I know.

 

A KO 1...but not just yet!

 

O'Donnell looks like another wasted talent, its a shame.

 

for any ex pats out there...frampton and quigg will be shown on show time:good

 

Just dont see what Quigg has that will beat Frampton,
For my money frampton is more skilled and hits harder,He has fought better opposition and had a much more extensive amateur career to boot.
Any betting prices out for this yet?

 

8/13 for Frampton to win with boylesport.... or 11/4 for frampton TKO win with betfred... that's where my moneys goinggood

 

Early KO.

 

Early ko? Thats one outcome that wont occur......

 

Yeah i would be surprised alright,I think Frampton will box smart early and then take over,I wouldnt be surprised to see a stoppage after round 7 though.

 

How I see it playing out is something like this:

Frampton gets off to fast start, boxing well, moving sharply and using lots of movement & jabs. Wins first 3 rounds on the trot.
Around 4-5 Quigg, realizing he is losing here - will be forced to go for it.
Sheer aggression will probably enable him to bag a few rounds 4-7/8. But he will continue to ship punishment even in the rounds he is winning on the cards. The pace and Carls sharp-shooting will start to take a toll. By round 9 Quigg should be wide open & shipping increasingly heavy punishment. Late stoppage or wide pts win for Carl.

 

Yea I agree that sounds about right. A late stoppage win for carl is likely.

 

Big Con won on points
