I genuinely think Warrington gets the job done next week, his work rate and ability to box at pace for 12 rounds without really any blips in cardio is swaying me towards a points win!

What do you guys think? What card you watching on the weekend?

Having watched and really enjoyed his new DVD, I really hope he does it. He trains bloody hard. I think he's a better boxer than he's given credit for, he doesn't take much punishment.

Saying that, you have to favour frampton and his experience getting the job done. Tho josh was "made for selby" apparently, and Carl's had some hard nights so you never know.

I'd actually like to see Warrington vs quigg, that could be a barnstormer.

You won't believe it I just finished watching that about 20 mins ago, it was really good very well filmed and honestly well guided they really made that Selby bout at the perfect time!

I fancy Warrington. I've not typed that sentence before. I reckon Frampton is on the slide and won't react well to the roughouse Leeds fella..

It's frustrating that Warrington gets so much stick from idiot football fans when he's clearly a really nice guy with his priorities spot on.

yes, at first didn't really understand the hype but watching him and how he is progressed from the First Direct Arena to Elland Road is remarkable, pumped for this weekend you buying the PPV pal?

Sure warringtons a gent and the fact he he looks like a space raider crisp doesn’t make him a bad guy but it’s about levels.

He has size and fitness on his side but i’m frampton trumps him in every other department.

He’ll do well.....he’ll get beat ....the end

im not convinced that frampton at this point is levels above. hes always seemed to have a habit of getting into some issues anyway. i actually had him drawing vs quigg, dropped by those pair of mexicans, and hurt a few times vs donaire. warrington on his game has a real chance

also the fitness could be a big deal because imo framptons faded before, he lost almost the full last half of the quigg fight imo

The fact that you had him drawing against quigg means you’ve prob got bobby sands posters up all over your house he pissed quigg.

nah not at all, was poor in pretty much the entire second half. i think you have to be generous to give him more then 1 round of the last half . quigg won the rounds bigger too. it wasnt some really good 'pissed it' performane at all, nothing close. a very competitive split decision

and lol, since you wanted to go that fanboy route, is chiggsy chuggsy on carls balls

in all fairness mate thought Frampton beat Quigg comfortably but I agree with your Warrington call he wins next Sat!

frampton really was poor that second half, if you thought he won well youd have to be giving him rounds basically where he was fading and just moving around doing close to nothing.

it was a 7-5/6-6 type fight imo, frampton getting out to a big early lead probably shades memory of how it actually went overall

btw thought there looked to be a much clearer dfference in level between valdez and quigg then frampton and quigg

100%, Valdez looked quality that night tbh Quigg is very good deserves more credit!

There's no way Frampton v Quigg was a draw. Frampton won that fairly comfortably.

I agree though that Frampton has slipped and Warrington's fitness and workrate gives him a lot of problems. Going to be a very interesting night.

frampton won 1 clear round in the second half. imo all quigg needed for a draw was 1 round of the first 6 and i think you could do that. on rbr's lots of people had frampton winning 7-5 only by virtue of winning the 12th. it was very close

a lot of ppl seem to overlook how badly frampton faded in that fight even though it was pretty low output . that was not a good stamina showing

besides, aside from quigg frampton struggled vs those two mexicans and was even shaky vs donaire. hes almost always in with issues vs solid opponents. i think hell be vulnerable to being substainally outworked in the second half especially. he could very well take it with sharper boxing, but imo its gonna be close decision if he does

i expect a close decision either way actually

It felt closer because Quigg had some success in the later rounds but the fight was won by the 8th round and Frampton took his foot off the gas.

If Quigg had engaged earlier then it might have been closer.

disagree, and reading back on forums i see loads of cards that had it like a 1 point fight going into the last, that wouldve had it a draw if qquigg won the 12th (the 12th frampton finally showed a late second wind).

frampton didnt clean sweep and clearly win the first 8 at all, and he really faded and slowed in the second half. imo very very easy to give quigg 5 of the last 6. the idea that frampton really 'won well' or 'pissed it' is laughable.. he was hurt too in the 11th actually

Yeah deffo. fornicate whyte vs chisora. Chisora is done anyway.

Framptons gotta be careful, Warringtons a gamer, he’ll keep coming and is fit as a butchers dog, but I’m backing frampton just believe he’s a ‘better’ boxer

On paper, you‘d have to go with Carl. He’s a proven elite level guy. It’s possible Carl has peaked and Josh has yet to peak. That’s all conjecture though.
