    I think it'd bring a lot of interest over here. What do you think about it as a fight? Maybe too much of a sideways step if Frampton is looking to make the jump to world class sooner rather than later. I still think they should make it though, it'd be a decent fight.

    It would generate some interest obviously, sell out a arena and do well financially i suppose but from a boxing POV Frampton would beat Casey. Wouldn't have much bother with him IMO.

    I like Casey, so I don't want to see him get beat up, after Molitor it's onwards and upwards.

    If Frampton gets beaten by Molitor the fight could happen. If Frampton beats Molitor it will not happen.

    Molitor ain't the fighter he was, but he is still a threat. Also Frampton hasn't been tested yet by a quality opponent. It's hard to know how good he is.

    I thought Martinez could have beaten Frampton. There was a serious possibility for that happening but with Molitor I'm not so sure, he is starting to get past it so I don't know. We'll have to see, he is a great replacement and could prove to be threat because he is a big step up.

    Molitor was never the same after he lost his '0'

    Still very skillful and will have a bag of tricks to frustrate Carl.

    dont know why so many ppl see it as such a one sided fight. frampton would be the favourite allright but just like the kiko and molitor bouts its by no means a garuntee'd win or easy match. carlos has'nt exactley been in there with world class opposition the other 3 have

    even if frampton beats molitor id still like to see it

    They should make casey Galahad. Frampton and quigg both have fights lined up plus would be interesting as Galahad can box but doesnt look like he likes getting hit so could go either way

    Amir Khans fans would have said the same thing when he was facin Prescott. Bernard Dunnes fans would have said the same things before he fought Kiko. I think "safely" is a strong word even if I agree in principle with what your saying.:think

    Yeah but you cannot predict something like that to happen before it happens, we can only judge the fight on what we see right now :good
