    Wtf is up with boxing
    No robbery, my initial scoring was a draw. My inclination while scoring the fight was to acknowledge Frampton's quality, over Santa Cruz's bull**** quantity. High work rate doesn't mean ***** if you aren't landing. That being said, I would have liked to see Frampton's work rate be a little higher. He showed he was the better puncher by staggering LSC. LSC can only blame himself. He tried to box Frampton instead of overwhelm him. LSC isn't that good. He is a poor man's Margarito, without the wraps.

    Rigondeaux would ***** on both of them.

      I watched it today. Not gonna lie, I didn't try scoring the rounds. Just enjoyed the fight.

      However it felt like Frampton edged it. Idk I like quality over quantity, and I felt like that was the case here.

      Felt like Farhood's score card was about right.

        How does Frampton win when Cruz's Jab outlands his 2-1 ( 64-31 DOUBLE )? you would think it would be Frampton to beat him in that department....then you got the total punch count in favor of Santa Cruz 255 too 242 -- Im still figuring this out because according to them they said Frampton outlanded in power punches but Im scanning the fight and see Cruz with the cleaner punches ; I got more it only gets worse for Frampton..Clear Robbery.
        Good stuff this is how i saw the fight and i know many people that couldnt be bothered watching it sober like anorak

        Its the same with may pac,its not going to make a difference to the official result but its nice to know in your own minds who the rightful winner was,

        I know pac won against mayweather and i know santa cruz deserved to keep that belt especially against a guy being 90% more negative to initiate and when he did decide to counter and exchange he got pushed back everytime,im no frampton hater if he took the belt of cruz ans pushed him back like a real champ id have no problem,he didnt do enough to get that belt

        I dont give a **** a robbery is a robbery i dont give a **** how close you think thw fight was thw wrong man won this fight,i dont even care for santa cruz but he fought the right fight and gave absolutely everything he would have gave his life in there

        He finished the damn exchanges and made this a fight worth watching,it would have been quigg frampton action wise if leo didnt put that pace on him.

        Thw fans should be backing the guys that make good fights, not the guys that backfoot all day, i remember a time where being on the front foot was counted in scoring along with initiating trades

          Most scribes and respectable websites I have seen had Frampton edging it, I seen quite a few draw cards, but no complaints either way.
          It was close but clear. First half of the fight was all frampton, second half was close fight where rounds were harder to judge.

            Three more pieces of evidence.

            The Hound : I noticed everyone ducked my post I wonder why? I even left out the jabs snapping Framptons neck...like I said its 2-1...I clearly proved that the power punch stats are false and that Cruz landed the harder cleaner punches also. Fruadton is a lucky man first he ducks Rigo gets a shot at another bum in Quig and now robs Cruz! these people see what they want to see end of story.

            I like point out these are the best shot from both men - I tried to find anything I could for Frampton that was clean and solid these are the results...out of 8 or 9 nine rounds I lost count regardless it got worse for him in the championship rounds too.

              If anyone would surely understand what Frampton was doing you'd expect a Rigo fanboy to understand what was happening to Santa Cruz, he didn't deserve anything Carl came to his weight his hometown and he beat him fair and square no rematch needed Carl done it the hard way.
              well, by "putting on a show" he made the fight close. he landed some great shots but so did santa cruz leaving the viewer to decide who got the better of it.

              it wasnt really anything like what rigo does, not saying that to knock either fighter as i appreciate both. but there wasnt enough similarities to say he did what rigo would have. rigo would have shut him down, frampton didnt.

              i dont know what "done it the hard way" has to do with a rematch. you think he won, i to admire everything he did that night but i didnt think he won the fight. since we disagree on that it makes sense to disagree on a rematch too. where he did it and the difficulty of the task is of lesser significance.

              i just hope he takes another real fight, shame he wont stop ducking rigo anytime soon.

                That last part I agree with he should offer him a fight contract in 2017 after a likely fight with Selby.

                True maybe he did leave it in question who was getting the better with these wild exchanges but I just personally preferred the work of a guy who was throwing shots with precision and vicious intent whereas LSC was quite sloppy for a large portion of the fight.
