    Comments Thread For: Frampton: Santa Cruz My Toughest Foe, I Could've Made It Easier

    Carl Frampton had a strategy to beat Leo Santa Cruz, a strategy that was working in the early rounds. "The game plan was distance control, but to hit him hard and make him get my respect from the start," Frampton said at the post-fight press conference.

    Leo got stronger as usual as the fight wore on and Frampton faded a bit in the 2nd half. I recall Frampton looking faded in around the 7th-9th but winning the round on sheer determination.... and even going toe to toe while doing it!!! Leo seemed confused at the sheer determination displayed by Frampton and the round slipped from his hands and cost him the fight in my eyes.

        Could've made it easier???
        This dude is a joke. His little arms couldn't even reach enough to hit Santa Cruz, Man I don't know what fight people where watching, Santa Cruz was landing the harder punches and winning all exchanges.
        If anything it's Santa Cruz father who was sending him out to box instead of fighting. Leo could've put this dude away in 3 rounds of fighting tops!!
        Why don't they mention compubox stats??? Leo landed like 300 more punches ...smh

          Santa Cruz threw 300 more punches, he only out-landed Frampton by like 20 punches according to CompuBox.

            Pretty sure no one has ever lost a fight on the cards while landing 300 more punches.

                  You're probably right, still think Leo was the clear winner. Framton didn't do any of what he said he would, his punches are weak, he'll probably lose on his next fight.
