    How can anybody have LSC tied with Frampton. Saying Frampton is commonwealth champ level? LSC is actually fighting at the level of Commonwealth champion fighters or worse, they're just not part of the Commonwealth. He hasn't fought anybody with a pulse. I admit i was excited by him a couple of years ago but his level of opposition hasn't improved so for me to have him at number 2 in the division now is laughable.

    I wouldn't consider myself a big Frampton fan but there's no way he's below number 2 in the division. And as i said earlier, based on recent opposition and performances, you could make a case for him as number 1 but he probably loses to Rigo head to head and Rigo is dining out on the win over Donaire to keep him at the top.

        Frampton is fighting nothing but bums as much as Leo is and Frampton is still thinking like a commonwealth level champ he wants to fight Quigg come on that guy stinks of commonwealth bumness. i cant take that guy seriously once he beats that bum Quigg and by the way have you seen him fight he sucks.
        I see nothing that would have me believe that he can beat Rigo or Leo I just don't see what you guys see. I see a guy who they are picking his opponents so he can look good not to say they are not doing the same for Leo but I just cant have Frampton over Leo or Rigo base on the boxing skills I see from them.

          Why do people rate Cruz so highly?

          Who has he beaten and explain how his in ring performances indicate he is a special elite level fighter?

          Is it because he is well promoted, on tv often, and has a belt?

            He's beaten fairly good guys but took 2 steps backwards in his last two fights.

            He's more of a worker than a flashy guy who gets the job done but seems to fight to the level of his opposition which is gonna be bad sson.



            Really, it's Rigo and Frampton, then everybody else.

              He throws 80+ punches per round...

              Rigo
              Frampton

                He ends up being in fights that are too competitive for a guys who is supposed to be world class against the recent opponents he has faced. Sure he is busy and has some skill and timing but I have seen many less notable fighters who have impressed me more.

                  This is the one I agree with.

                    Hey Scott.

                    Do you think Frampton can beat Rigo?

                    I actually do.

                      Yes, I'd pick Frampton. Rigo is a major talent but his reputation is becoming somewhat mythological . He is not unbeatable and Frampton's skills and workrate can get it done.
