CARL FRAMPTON will avoid the New York sun to make sure his career continues to shine. The unbeaten Belfast fighter is moving up to featherweight to take on WBA champion Leo Santa Cruz in the US city on July 30. Frampton, 29, jetted out to America yesterday to finish off preparations and acclimatize to the time zone ahead of the summer super fight. Click Here To Read More]
Dunno how anyone could like LSC he is a complete utter ass of a person and he's boring as a fighter.
I think Frampton is going to KO this POS and I've no idea why any Puerto Rican would want to root for someone like Leo.
Lol, I thought that title must be misrepresented so I read the article and, sure enough, he sounded even stupider than the title made him out to be.
Anyway, hope it's a great scrap.
This retarded leprechaun is nuts. Sure, many Ricans will root for him but at the end of the day if LSC starts to fight good, specially in the later rounds, many of those Ricans will root for him, the Latino heart will prevail. In the Cotto-Mayweather most Mexicans were cheering for Floyd but in the late rounds and some tequilas, many cheered for Cotto, the Latino.
He precipitates himself. All Framp has to do, to get some Puerto Rican fans and Mexicans too, is KO Santa Cruz, eliminate him as a bragging chip. In NY, in front of a bunch of Puerto Ricans. Turn around and KO a Puerto Rican too, run the gauntlet. They won't exactly love you, but they'll sure watch and follow you, like Salido for example.
This guy is not too bright! I'm MexiCAN and root for Trinidad, Cotto, and now Felix...As long as they're not boxing Mexican fighters of course. Mexicans fighters vs. Puerto Ricans is more than just two boxers. It's a HUGE rivalry but with Honor and dignity. When the fight is over we always congratulate he other and root for each other. PR's have HEART and a LOT of PRIDE!!
Good post, which I also agree. I am puertorican and rooting for Santa Cruz. He will be dropped and SC will finish what Quigg couldnt.
I'm Puerto Rican and I'm rooting for Frampton but not because Leo is Mexican. It's because Leo has spent yrs ducking his most meaningful challenge in rigo and has instead fought several low level opponents. I miss the days when Mexicans like Erik morales and Barrera fought all comers, including each other.
That kind of applies to Frampton as well.

It's pretty simple Frampton. What gym are using in NYC? Who are your sparring partners? That's the best way to appease New Yorkers, which includes Puerto Ricans! Embrace the community, "break bread" with them, and they'll love you back!
