    This fight hasn't received much coverage, which kinda sucks since it's a pretty interesting bout. You have Warrington making the first defense of his title against Frampton, with the winner possibly facing off Oscar Valdez sometime down the line in 2019.

    Who are you picking? :chuck:

    Agreed, it should be a cracking fight. Obviously Matchroom's card will steal some of the limelight but this is the contest I'll be watching. Very interesting clash of styles and there's also a gap in experience and age between the two men.

    Warrrington showed there's more to him as a boxer than I'd realised before in his win over the weight drained Selby. I expect him to thrown the kitchen sink but I am sticking with a Frampton decision.

    I wish the tv companies came up with a deal to buy both for a reduced price

    Warrington is overrated imo. He beat a drained Selby (who is also overrated) ... Frampton schools him.

    I like to raise a glass to world peace.

    Wonder* who will see their wish come true first.

    No way Frampton schools him this is a close fight that could go either way.

    Warrington deserves more respect than that. I, like most observers, tipped Selby to easily beat Warrington but Warrington bettered him in all aspects, soundly outboxing him - which very few foresaw.

    With that in mind you shouldn’t be so hasty in writing him off now. I think there is a strong chance Warrington could outwork Frampton. If it’s tight on the cards I think Josh will get the decision because there have been rumours of Frampton leaving BT to front ITV’s boxing coverage next year.

    If Josh pulls this off he is in the top 5 Fighter of the Year list which is topped by Usyk.

    Hats off to Warrington if he pulls it off, he’s been written off a lot of times and has come through to be world champion - very game fighter. Just think Frampton is a level above and is a very good operator who can manage Warrington in the ring. Hopefully it’s a great fight for those there and those watching.

    It’s a great fight but I have a feeling Warrington walks on to something big late in the fight and gets stopped

    We will see. I think he was fortunate to have fought Selby when he did. He will be soundly beaten by Frampton.

    Warrington is no Scott Quigg he's better & Josh has a great engine to put loads of pressure on Frampton.
    I've been looking forward to this fight since it was announced Frampton will need all his skill & it might not be enough.

    Warrington to win this. Anyone who thinks Theresa big gulf in class between these two doesn't know what they are talking about. Warrington will have enough to turn Frampton. Over on Sat night.

    WARrington will bring all Hell's wrath to Frampton, he's better at every single thing that Quigg does well, and is just as awkward as Leo Santa Cruz, this will be one of Carl's toughest fights, and its one that he might not win. Josh by SD.

    Warrington just about lost to Kiko Martinez. Frampton is going to beat up this smug looking kid.

    I've a feeling this might turn out to be as good fight as we have seen this year.
    Not sure who wins Frampton Skill or the younger hungry Warrington.
    I feel this will be a cracker of a fight.
