Re: Josh Warrington vs. Carl Frampton - 22 December 2018
I'm a big fan of Frampton he's a quality box/fighter and is in good form off the back of the Donaire and Jackson fights but same as I tipped Warrington to beat Selby I'm tipping him to beat Frampton as well, I think it will go right to the wire and I even have a sneaky feeling this could be a draw, its razor tight from where I'm sat, I thought Warrington was inspired against Selby, as I said I fancied him to win but I didn't think he's be so dominant and that he'd be able to outbox Selby
If this fight was a year or 2 ago i'd pick Frampton but as good as he's been lately I just think the timings right for Warrington, he's got the engine to make Frampton work at an uncomfortable pace and showed in his last fight he's more than a steamroller, Frampton has that class about him and is a quality counter puncher and his timing is on point, I just feel over 12 rounds Warrington will be too fresh and will scrape a close win

Frampton is gonna need to tag Warrington early and make him respect his power or there's a chance of him getting out worked.

Just think Frampton is way too much for Warrington. Josh beat a weight drained fighter in Lee Selby and is a bit overrated because off it. All about levels and Frampton is a couple above.

Re: Josh Warrington vs. Carl Frampton - 22 December 2018
Warrington is going into this with the all confidence in the world from The Elland road win and nothing is gonna change that. He’s gonna give it his all. So is Frampton. I do hope all the talk between Carl and Wârren doesn’t get to him about them not agreeing where to go after this. Frank can’t afford to lose a star like Frampton. This needs to be a close and decisive win for one of them. Even then Frank thinks a close fight deserves an immediate rematch.!Switch hitter wrote: ↑18 Dec 2018, 19:07 Just think Frampton is way too much for Warrington.

Same here. I've met him a couple times and he couldn't have been nicer.

I think Frampton will have a little bit too much for Warrington at this level. Can see Carl working off the back foot and walking Josh onto shots and following up and getting out of danger when Josh wants to work. Think Warrington will test Frampton but see a late stoppage for Carl.
Good matchup looking forward to it.

I'm favouring Josh in this - I think his high intense work rate will get to Frampton, unless he lands clean in the first few rounds I think Frampton will struggle to keep up with the pace.
I think Frampton is the better all-round boxer but I just fancy Josh in this.

This is pretty much my take. I've gone for Frampton on points, but he will need to lay a marker down early. My friends think I'm crazy yet I think Frampton needs to work the body early so that Warrington isn't crawling all over him later on. It could also be a bloody, messy one.

I might be on my own here but I don't think Frampton has carried his power in the FW division, guess we will find out 3 daysMF DOOM wrote: ↑19 Dec 2018, 06:21This is pretty much my take.

For anyone interested, the fight will be covered live on Radio 5.
Presumably Talksport will cover the Chisora fight then, but I’ve not checked yet.

BBC 5 live have the deal with W@rren, Talksport with Hearn.

Frampton is not going to beat Warrington. Many on here if not everyone didnt give Warrington a shout against Selby and Warrington took him apart. Luckily for Selby Warrington didnt have a punch otherwise it would have been over inside 4 rounds.
Carl Frampton hasnt got the best ko punch himself so im going to predict this is another points fight. I truly think Warrington will boxer Framptons luggs off over 12 rounds. MOT

The fact you put MOT on the end shows you’re completely biased.MasterG wrote: ↑19 Dec 2018, 15:03 Frampton is not going to beat Warrington.

I've shifted on this. Presumed Frampton quite easily. Wide points or perhaps cuts stoppage late. But....I've warmed to the idea Carl is post peak and Warrington has the intensity to prevail narrowly.
Re: Josh Warrington vs. Carl Frampton - 22 December 2018
I think too many people are writing Frampton off here .
He's been there and done it and Warrington is largely untested at the very top level .
Looking forward to this massively .
