Great coup for ITV and good for Frampton's mass market appeal comes a week after Golovkin-Murray on Channel 5.

I haven't watched much of Avalos at all, apparently he is a dangerous opponent?

What can I say about Avalos?

+: Good chin - Decent power - Throws a lot of punches - Looks strong / big at the weight.

-: Very easy to hit - Leaves himself wide open when he throws flurries of punches

Frampton showed he could deal with pressure fighters in the Martinez rematch. Avalos doesn't put as much pressure as Kiko and is too crude to outbox Frampton, who should win this fight by a clear UD, possibly by stoppage if he catches the too often reckless Avalos with a big shot.

How would this be following America's lead? Boxing has been on terrestrial tv before
