    I'd say it's down to Dogboe who he represents, we can't just take him as ours without him stating he's representing Britain. He is eligible though

    Maybe, but he also has the best timing and arguably the best punching technique out of the lot

    I think it may have to do with the calibre of opponent Frampton was facing. His defence was tighter in the Donaire fight

    Care to explain what his accent has got to do with anything I said, or indeed what nationality he classes himself?

    He is British Ghanaian. Which part of this do you not understand?

    What's all this "more active guard " business " ? Sounds like nonsense to me. I'd be surprised if anything about the Plank is more active than anything about frampton to be honest....

    Motion with his guard keeps his opponent guessing when to time openings, he was moving his lead hand but keeping it near his head.

    It's not me who's misunderstanding what is being said here. In fact it is me who is saying it. Two countries can't claim one person in a top 10 in my opinion. If you asked him which is closer to his heart then reading between the lines, I think he would tell you it's Ghana. For that reason I do not consider him in a British ranking. Until he states otherwise. It really isn't complicated, if you can't engage your brain then that's your problem

    What has it done got to do with Smith though? His hands might as well be stapled to his big Easter island head. This makes his punches easier to readand less powerful ,not better.

    Anyway Frampton dissent need to box like a robot. His judgement and control of distance is superior. His lower hands allow for harder punches too. The better pros tend to carry their hands low for this reason.
