If these guys fought 10x's itd probably be a Draw 4x's and 3 wins for Frampton and 3 for LSC. IDK man, neither guy has fight changing power so id prefer to see them matched against other people. There are so many fighters at 122-130 that deserve a shot at either of them, IDK why anyone wants to see this again right away.

I want the trilogy as much as anyone but would understand if they took interim fights. Frampton wants a fight in Belfast and Leo can do a fight in LA.

I agree with Selby. No need for an immediate rematch! Frampton vs. Selby in Belfast! LSC vs. Gary Russell Jr. in Vegas! Mares vs. Zambrano at StubHub! Make them happen!

Because he don't want to have to fight Gary Russell or Oscar Valdez.

If Frampton really wants a Belfast fight, it makes sense to be v. a British fighter.

I'd be down for the immediate trilogy, they make great, high-level fights. But there's so much talent at feather, you cant go wrong with many matchups. All the names you mentioned, Im cool with (honestly, not that familiar w Zambrano).

Valdez not quite ready for them. I could see Valdez v. Cuellar as a good step up.

Oh, and lets not forget Quigg.
