Barry McGuigan's not doing Carl's legacy any good by keeping him tied to Belfast! A fight with Santa Cruz outside of the UK will bolster his Credentials no end!!!..............

i dont thnk leo has proved that he is good money..his last fight was quiet and pretty much no one was there until the heavyweights got in the ring

C'mon with that St Johns, respect for being a rigo fan but more brutal than that? Pffftt...Rigo would not have fought to Avalos strengthens like Frampton did to get the stoppage. We both know that.

he fought inside with a 126lber who was at 145 the night of the fight..and much taller than alvalos as well...rigo is unpredictable..if he brings his all i think he will hurt frampton forreal..especially if frampton isnt blowing up past 130..i'd like to see both of them tested that is a must..carl looks way too strong for 122

Man, the commentators were riding Framptons twig like a bunch of 16yo concert groupies.
Avalos brought nothing to England and seemed to be happy enough with the huge payday.
Carl would get toyed with brutally by the real champ

[Teetotaler]

So whose frampton facing next?

good point, can't disagree with that

idk man..the cuban might shell up or he might shine..i dont think carl has ever shelled up and he's been in front of massive crowds..he's going to dispose of quigg then hopefully him and rigo can happen..

i gotta admit i'm only knowledgeable of the 122 fighters that fight in the US, i had no idea Frampton was this good, i'm not familiar with Quigg but Frampton looked great and versatile, Rigo vs Frampton is definitely THE fight and i'm pretty sure Rigo will be talking about Frampton pretty soon and calling him out

So he destroyed avalos now he can hang with rigo lmao. He is a good fighter carl but rigo is on a different level

Rigo has been dropped/rocked by every decent fighter he has faced. Carl is made of Granite. Rigo couldn't live with Marroquin on the inside. #

I called Rigo out as a boxing master years ago and took all the flack when I was one of the only people picking him over Donaire....

Frampton however is simply the better fighter. More complete.

This fight is really as simple as Frampton is gonna land his left hook and when he does it's over. Usually a fight at this high a level wouldn't be so simple, but this is the only outcome.

I wonder how good Frampton's chin is... If he can take Rigo's punch then he has a chance but if Rigo's power makes him think, then Rigo will dictated the activity of the fight. That's the thing with Rigo, his speed, technique, and power makes fighters become real discipline and not take chances.
