When Scott beats him, apparently he was never that good to begin with. Time for people to accept I was spot on when I said that Kiko was a straight-foward plodder whom Rendall Munroe dealt with ease years ago. It's sad to think Carl's best win is Kiko, yet his fans proclaim him as the best in the division. Looking ahead, if we look at the facts, Team Frampton are ducking Quigg. It's an undeniable fact. They'd rather face a Mexican roadsweeper than take the biggest pay day Carl will have ever received. How sad for boxing. :-(
I hadn't heard about Frampton moving up in weight to avoid Quigg until Hearn mentioned it last night. I was thinking "he's bound to say that". Then I read BBC, and what does it say? Frampton camp are considering moving up in weight as Carl struggled to make weight. Seems clear to me. I'm sure Carl wants it, but not his team.
....and in none of those 20 rounds was Frampton troubled by Kiko the way Scott was. Kiko bossed Scott all over the ring up to the point Quigg landed that right uppercut.
This is ridiculous. A boxing fight consists of 12 rounds and a fighter losing the first round but then destroying his opponent in the 2nd makes the 1st round null and void. Your opinion reminds of Kahn fans who claim Khan was winning the Garcia fight easily until he got caught by Garcia and eventually stopped. It's completely illogical!!!
If he softened him up would he not have stopped him last time they fought? After all Kiko had improved so much thats why it went the distance, or that is what was being claimed.
Lets not forget Carl was not the only one who had a bad first round last night. Quigg looked all at sea until the'Hail Mary' uppercut. We are told it was all part of some "Cunning Plan" by Team Quigg. Yeah, right!! They also claimed being behind at the halfway stage was all part of a similar "Plan" against Salinas. Remember that?
Mate, Scott got put on the back foot for the last minute of the first and couldn't even throw a SINGLE punch! His game on the back-foot is non-existent - Just like his head-movement.
