Ideal plan for Frampton.
He's just won his world title. Get the mandatory against Avalos out the way and then have the big fight with Quigg in the summer. The Rigo fight would be the icing on the cake.
Not arsed about what Santa Cruz does. He'll probably move up to fight Mares and lose.
I really really want to see Frampton vs Quigg. I favour Frampton but Quiggs a good fighter, improved a lot and isn't to be counted out. I certainly do not see that fight as a forgone conclusion like many picking Frampton.
:lol1: Right. He just got his damn belt and is defending against the number 1 contender, wtf? Aside from Rigo, Frampton is the only other true champion at 122. Wasn't his fault that Kiko's stars aligned and managed to snatch a belt after getting KO'd by Carl. Plus, Kiko was coming off some massive wins. Mathebula, Hasegawa and Romero were all great wins and had Kiko flying high before rematching Frampton. Didn't Leo duck Carl after Carl KO'd Cazares? :lol1:
Yep. Santa Cruz was calling out Frampton in every interview before that. Suddenly he went quiet after he sparked out Cazares.
Frampton was WBC mandatory after that fight but he'd have probably had to wait a year to force Santa Cruz's hand. In the meantime, the Kiko fight came available.
How anyone can say Frampton has cherry picked is beyond me.
I think so too. Frampton's right hand and left hook are very explosive. He would be the most complete professional fighter Rigo would have ever faced. Just think, if the likes of Cordoba and Amagasa were able to catch Rigo, I'm sure a precise and powerful boxer in Carl would find or make an opening to unload his arsenal. The best thing about Frampton is his versatility. He can adjust and either go full offense or box off the backfoot, waiting for his opponent to be lured in to a counter right hand.
Not saying it would be easy at all, but Rigo isn't untouchable. He has looked vulnerable far too many times to be able to claim he's unbeatable.
Yeah I could just see Frampton on the back foot and countering Rigo with a big shot. It's not an easy fight but Rigo isn't un-hittable and Carl has plenty of sting in his shots. I hope he fights him this year.
Hilarious innit? When has Frampton even had the chance to cherry pick?

He'll whoop Quigg and LSC. I think he could possibly knock Rigo out as well.

Wut? Who has Framps cherry-picked? Dude has had like 20 fights, and he's fought some fo the best in his division.
Another nuthugger of the gremlin Rigo, and the TRUE cherrypicker, Leo Santa Cruz?
Bwahaha

Is this non-news supposed to be damage control in responce to Leo possibly fighting Rigo before your two favorite cherrypicking UK dwarves? Sure feels like it. It's OK, Dirk. They can all just cherrypick together.
Who has Frampton "cherry picked"? I've said all along that once he wins the world title, he'll go after Quigg then he should go for Rigo. What's your issue with that?
Aren't you one of the dorks who cries "dey don't even mention Rigo name doe. Dey scared". So this should be news to you.
