Comments Thread For: Frampton: Martinez Beat Weak Champ, Over The Hill Foes

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Frampton has a problem, a few things don't pass the smell test. First off, Kiko is just too willing. I heard, not saw, the last fight ended with a quick stoppage. For Kiko to act happy about going back to Ireland borders on disrespect (not for the Irish) for Frampton. I would normally choose a previous KO winner in a rematch, even if the loser could change his style. Kiko has seen the elephant, he knows how to fix home cooking, the bull is smarter this time around.

Perhaps you should watch the ending before making a comment and making yourself look ******.

I've been following him since his Celtic title win and the McGuigans have done one hell of a job with Frampton with the way they've matched and developed him. The guy has so many dimensions to his game along with a natural gift that is of a big punch.

I'll definitely pick Frampton to stop Kiko again.

Fight Rigo if you're so tough. He'll school in Belfast before your fans.

Frampton has one punch knockout power. Once you have knocked someone out you can do it again.

not necessarily, Alvarado dominated Rios on their second encounter after being TKOed by Rios on their first fight....

Agreed..........

Because he used his "boxing" against Rios on the second fight, who happens to be a stationary fighter that isn't good at cutting the ring or cornering moving opponents. Unless you slug it out with Rios, you won't have too many problems.

Also, Kiko only fights one way. Sure he can perfect his craft as he has shown in his following 4 fights after his loss to Carl but keeping him at bay with a stinging jab followed by a straight right is what stops Martinez dead on his tracks. All Frampton needs to do is create space and box his ear off until Martinez is ready to go, something he is capable of doing. Martinez has been a great champion and his style is exciting and relentless, it could pose a problem for anybody at Super Bantamweight. BTW I don't see anyone beating Rigo at 122 unless he gets old over night and losses his legs, then pressure fighters such as Leo and Kiko would have a decent shot at dethroning the SBW King, which I don't see happening.

I read Yamanak is planning on moving up by the end of the year or early 2015 to Super Bantamweight. Now that will be interesting, if he can bring his power with him he will pose a threat at 122 and bring with him some exciting fights.
