Carl Frampton vs Leo Santa Cruz 2 - The Rematch is on.
Carl has just announced the rematch on his twitter.
@RealCFrampton - Done deal! The rematch vs @leosantacruz2 is on!!! More news to come soon #AndStill
Would have liked to have seen Frampton vs Selby before the rematch but no complaints from me. The first fight was brilliant and the second will hopefully be just as good.
Who have you got?
Seems to be on the 28th January at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, with Dejan Zlaticanin vs Mikey Garcia for the WBC Lightweight title also on the card.

Frampton on points again. Unless he gets stiffed by the judges.

Frampton by decision. He's the better boxer. He let his heart rule his head too much in the last bout, allow LSC the chance to come back in to it.
If Carl has learned from his mistakes, this could be a thoroughly conclusive performance from him...

LSC's team think otherwise. They've been gurning about being robbed in the 1st fight since Frampton's hand was raised...lefthook82 wrote:Dont think fight needed rematch personally

First fight was good. I expect no less for the 2nd. Santa Cruz will probably be more aggressive, I think it'll play out similar to the first fight with Frampton's boxing carrying the rounds more than Santa Cruz's pressure and Frampton will again win a decision that Santa Cruz and his fans won't like, but it'll be fair I think.

Should be a cracking fight again. Can't see anything other than a Frampton win though.
Re: Carl Frampton vs Leo Santa Cruz 2 - The Rematch is on.
Can see LSC taking the next one, on the night as an Irishman I had CF easy but on second viewing sober I had it a draw.
LSC on points this time around - demanding a 3rd of a lovely modern day trilogy

Re: Carl Frampton vs Leo Santa Cruz 2 - The Rematch is on.
I wouldn't be too surprised if LSC changes tack and does manage to win more rounds in a rematch. I think he has more potential to improve his performance than Frampton does. Albeit, that does come with the caveat that his likely route to improvement is starting quicker and setting a higher tempo, and that comes with the risk of him eating more shots and maybe getting hurt.
As with the first fight its essential Frampton lands hard early, then.

Re: Carl Frampton vs Leo Santa Cruz 2 - The Rematch is on.
I'm edging LSC in the rematch.
Can see him upping the tempo and edging a few more rounds.
Really close fight.
I'm actually gutted they are having a rematch as Frampton boxed the first fight beautifully and I'm not looking forward to that performance being lost in time because of the outcome of the rematch.
