Carl Framton vs Guillermo Rigondeaux

Rigondeaux wide UD.

Frampton is the 2nd best fighter in the division by quite a distance, but Rigo will give him a lesson.

This is a tricky one to call. I'm a fan of both. Some rigo fanatics say rigo schools him but I'm not so sure. However rigo haters now say he has a China chin and will get koed. I think the fight will one day be made. Frampton and the mcquigan's both know that they'll have to meet eventually. They even said that carl wasn't ready, which explains why they want to go for cruz or quigg first.

Frampton has very good boxinv skills and also uses feints very well, something which tends to trouble counter punchers. However rigo has much better footwork and enough PPP to keep frampton honest. I would say rigo would edge out a close decision but I wouldn't be surprised if frampton won

I like Frampton, have followed him.for a while.

But he isn't ready for Rigondeaux. He has speed, power, chin, and athleticism but i don't think his defence or ring iq are up there enough yet.

What's clear is that the top 2-4sbw's AT LEAST need to start fighting each other if they arent gonna go near Rigo. Just so we can get a clear no.2

There is a reason why Rigo is ducking Frampton and Leo. He knows his weak chin won't hold up and he would get knocked out unconscious. That's why he is fighting in Japan now. That plus no TV networks or fans are interested in him.

Exactly. I think frampton would definitely beat quigg and probably cruz too. He needs a couple more competitive fights to improve his ring iq. He has the goods though and it's still early in his career so it's very encouraging.

Tell us again how Rigo is ducking Frampton when Frampton.and his team have said many times in televised interviews that they arent ready for the fight?

I really the winner of a potential Frampton Quigg fight would chase after Rigo. I have my doubts... But i hope they will dare to be great

I like Frampton and he is clearly the second best in the division but I think Rigo still beats him clearly. 9-3 maybe 8-4
