    He got his ass beat and took some massive bombs, but he was tough as nails.
    Frampton clinching on the inside made little sense when he has T-Rex arms. I truly think he could've stopped him, but yes, Gonzales toughed it out and got his name in the mix @122.

      I totally blanked on that fight. Good to hear Quigg looked good.

        Paul Mulligan: Sounds like Frampton really struggled to make the weight tonight - clearly impacted preparations. Could jeopardise a Quigg fight.

          Quigg didn't look good, he looked absolutely awful until he landed a booming uppercut from nowhere.

            Not sure if it was making the weight that was the problem, or how they went about it.

            He did say they left it too late to take off the last few lbs, and also that they might have to see about moving up. Generally though, I think they'll go about making the weight better next time and be fine.

              It's hard to say that Quigg did great because the fight simply didn't last that long. He didn't really get to showcase his skillset like I thought he would've needed to. However, he did land a picture perfect uppercut iirc and jumped on Kiko when he had him hurt. Kiko was stalking and Quigg was moving and countering, that's the fight in a nutshell.

                I would agree.

                He looked unsure of how to handle pressure, but he deserves big credit for finishing the job in impressive fashion.

                  He didnt look great on the backfoot but it worked and he did what he needed to do.

                  Not like he got mullered first round

                      Frampton is trash. ANY of the top fighters embarrasses the hell out of him. Leo, Loma, Walters... EVEN NONITO right now revives his career with this midget.
