Ahh cool I had read he was usually pretty erratic. Must be as fit as fornicate though because he seems to fight at a crazy pace!

I can see a LSC win via shutout decision or close to a shutout.

With Framptons size and style I can't see how he takes rounds off LSC and I don't see him carrying the power to trouble him.

Really hope I'm wrong.

Can't wait to see this on BN

Although I will say that Martinez unofficially dropped Leo in the second round, so it may not be the case that Cruz can just walk through Frampton's shots with impunity. I initally brushed it off as a push (and frankly wasn't watching too closely), but someone in the Brit section noted that Cruz was dropped, and a closer look showed that LSC was in fact staggered by a cross and should've been ruled down.

Santa cruz by late stoppage.

I'm thinking more of a smaller version of Margarito minus plaster in his gloves. Pryor was way more dynamic, better speed, better power, better head movement, really better in every shape and form. LCS is a one dimensional pressure fighter, straight line kind of fighter, he doesn't use angles. It's only a matter of time before he meets someone like Shane Mosley who will have enough skill and pop and he will get his ass handed to him, I don't know think Frampton is that guy, I think he will succumb to the pressure but I'm Hopeing I'm wrong.

I hope you're not wrong.

Santa cruz is more skilled than margarito he uses the jab more and has subtle lil tricks to where as margarito was strictly a face first brawler.

Santa is just a better fighter than Frampton imo.

Both are good fighters but Frampton is too short for Santa Cruz. Difference of reach is nearly 18 cm. Leo will win this fight.

I watch Cruz and always think to myself, he's a faster, smaller version of a young Margarito. I'm not that impressed with him to be honest, but I'm not that big a fan of his style either. I'm convinced when he steps up the opposition and inevitability moves up in weight he will be exposed.

I expect it to become a close fight, but the fight happens in America, so then we all know what happens, in Russia the fight would be fair, but not in America.

Aww yeah in Russia if you win they fix you up with a steroid burger and some nice steroid tea. I'd avoid the sushi

Agreed, because currently Russia is the prime example of sportsmanship and fairness. If any nation can be called "fair" its Russia.

Just have the sneakiest feeling Carls going to pull this off. I hope my guts right, can't wait for this fight!

Bookies don't think so, make LSC clear favourite

Hahahahahaha you're kidding right?

I hope everyone's watching this. Great fight, evenly matched, very meaningful fight as well.

What a fight!

Got it even after 6.

LSC is basically Paul Williams. Doesnt use his reach properly. He's fighting a guy with arms as long as Big Pun and fighting him inside the pocket.

Have Frampton up 2 points thru 8. My earlier card was miscalculated.

5-3 Carl up

Frampton has made a believer of me, win or lose.

6-3 Frampton

Better quality from carl give it a draw.

6-4 Fram

A great fight - more please

Leaving a fight like that with the judges is never good - I hope they rematch whatever the result

yaaaassss!!!
