    Of course he is.

    Being beaten in a tough match by someone as god as Frampton doesn't suddenly make him bad.

    Of course he is. He can still make alot of noise at 126. No shame in losing to Frampton who's a quality operator. I thought Santa Cruz size would be the difference I was wrong.

    Anyone who is 'writing off' LSC is wrong.
    I saw two well matched fighters at the world's highest level of boxing battle a hard and very close 12 round championship fight. Ignore what 2 of the judges saw, They're wrong too. For either fighter, a loss in this fight is no negative thing. I think you made up the part about people writing him off because Im fairly sure no one is.

    Oh, fvck off. Unless you're willing to concede that Rigo is also a COWARD for ducking Loma "more shamelessly than the others".

    Santa Cruz is a beast. As is Frampton. Impressed with both men.

    Actually I thought that Leo would pull it out but Frampton proved very tenacious, I knew he had the skill to win, I just didn't think that he had the stamina to withstand the steady pressure from Leo. I have watched the fight three times and I also think that it was closer than the last two scorecards. It was a great fight and takes nothing away from Leo. I don't want to see a rematch because Frampton has to keep moving forward. Leo should get in the back of the line and fight his way back up. The 126 division is loaded. You got Valdez, Mares, Selby, GRJ plus Devanta Davis. By the way, GRJ put Selby in check to his face and stated that he would fight one more time at 126 and he's moving up for the Loma fight. Loma has been put on notice.
