Comments Thread For: Carl Frampton Beats Leo Santa Cruz, Wins WBA Belt in a War

[Shadoww702]

I had it 8-4. I could see it 9-3. I gave LSC I think round 4, but if that went to Frampton like I suspect most had it, then I would have it 9-3.

Frampton just basically hit him with the better shots all night long, had defense and just was the ring general. The 114-114 card is honestly the anomoly

YET you DIDN'T give him round 9??? The EASIEST one to score??? Must of took a bathroom break right?

He did cleary beat the champion. Leo got schooled. He looked like a bum lunging in and missing

Frampton looked better but his landed shots and accuracy was not much better than Santa Cruz.

2 featherweights(both w/Al Haymon) fighting for a raucous packed house.

You don't see that very often if at all.


Al Haymon does it again.

They did. Irish judge had that POS 9-3 filled out yesterday card.

damn I actually jumped on my sit when I heard the right man won, boxnation and showtime are on lsc's ass and barely talking on carl's clean punches

Farhoood was on point.

Carl Frampton is the UK's best fighter. Seems to get overlooked when people talk about the best UK fighters, maybe because he's from Northern Ireland.

Seems like the move up in weight really helped as well, he looked a lot fresher in there. Great fight from Carl

Farhoood was on point.

Farhood is usually terrible imo but he was on point tonight.

Rip Off!! Leo won, but got ripped off.

Carl slowed down as he always does, but he won the fight.

The fact that LSC wasn't coming forward too often speaks volumes, his best work happened when Frampton slowed but it wasn't enough.
