Thanks for the vids dude. Where you watching the fight, at home ? I got friends coming down definitely more excited for this than I was Jack vs DeGale, with Zlaticanin and Garcia on the undercard too as well as Thurman vs Danny in a few weeks also Haymon has really blessed the boxing fans with some monumental fights.

Yup, from my place. My chick's going to be at her grandmas birthday party tomorrow night so I get to enjoy the fights in peace without any ****** question like "are they allowed to kick" lol.

I'll probably invite a couple co-workers over. Casual boxing fans.

My women has a limited interest, she's out the house so I got the front room and tv which is always the case for the big fights.

I'm especially looking forward to the Zlaticanin Garcia fight as much as the main event, gonna be an epic slog of action. I'll be watching Vargas at some stage too on record afterwards.

Santa Cruz wins...people overrated the hell out of Frampton's work last time because he caught Leo with his feet squared up(he ducked a previous punch and stood awkwardly) once and almost dropped him(no real damage just a well placed shot on an unbalanced opponent) in the early rounds...then started acting like every FRampton power punch was hurting Leo. Leo's own undoing is his lack of power, he landed clean right counters square in Framptons chin late but couldnt hurt him. He will outwork Frampton and land more, so the only way Frampton wins is his work getting overrated even more just because he won the first fight. It will be competitive but Leo will land more and not get hurt, its just a matter of how much credit Frampton gets for landing flashy punches that dont hurt Leo.

If Cruz is to land more he has to open up more, regardless of whether you accept Cruz was hurt or was off balance the shot he was hit with would have knocked him over if not for the ropes resulting in an even wider win than the 117-111 recorded by one judge.

Over rated work, smh. You've been on this forum a long time and have a lot of posts but this one is some whopper, Frampton was the clearer technician, Cruz threw an excessive amount of punches at nothing, hitting nothing ! His opponent being five inches shorter in reach and a few inches shorter, for all Cruz's advantages he simply can not utilise them well enough.

Frampton-Santa Cruz is everything that is great about boxing. The fighters and their teams ooze class, no trash talk required, total respect, but still engaging personalities, and you know both guys are going to deliver when it counts, IN THE RING.

The problem with people like him is that Santa Cruz won most of the toe to toe exchanges. This is because he is a more fluent combination puncher, thats his game. But there was a lot of time between those types of exchanges, you could say the more boring parts of the fight, and in those 'boring' parts, Frampton dictated the pace, he was landing the pot shots, counters, and making Leo miss in a lot of those lulls.

It was when Frampton stood still that he would immediately start getting outlanded so its pretty obvious what he has to do better in the rematch. I think both guys can fight better, which is what makes this a great fight. I think for Leo to win he has to be on point defensively, he really has to fight out of his skin, which CAN happen if his preparation was on point. Its too close to call to be honest because a little mistake here and there in certain rounds can decide the fight between these two, I think concentration is going to be a big factor in this fight.
