Comments Thread For: Carl Frampton Wins Tough Decision Over Horacio Garcia

[Boxnation fan]

Frampton said no need to work hard to be better in the ring but in his case maybe he does. He was gassing but not surprising really as Garcia is a machine plus he gassed against Quigg. Also inactivity played a part and maybe also underestimating Garcia.
What Frampton needs now is get back in the ring quick against another similar level fighter but pick someone who isn't a combination of machine and brick shithouse and also do something/anything to build up his stamina. Do that in April and fight in Windsor Park in august against selby.

Agreed.

I just don't think Frampton is as effective a fighter at Feathweight as he was at Super Bantam.

He's still a Top 10 Feathweight, not sure he beats any of the champs though like Selby, GRjr or Leo santa cruz.

Oscar Valdez might be his best chance.

is the frampton match worth watching?

Well, it's not like Frampton fought a big name tonight (100-1 odds, crazy). I've never liked the "nobody knows him", "no money in the fight" excuses. Frampton-Russell would be much more interesting than most of Carl's matchups. People say the same thing about Rigo, then Loma-Rigo sales out as soon as tickets go on sale. Fans know the good competitive matchups when they see them. Bringing Gary to the Ireland would be a huge fight.

Who is to say that GRJ will be a tough fight? The one time he stepped up Loma cruised right through him. All his wins are over people he was supposed to win against. Combine that info with how often he actually fights and you will see that nobody needs GRJ he needs them and it seems he is an after thought for Haymon. He screwed himself signing up with Haymon cuz he has done next to nothing for lil Gary.

No need for Steve Bunce to mention Gonzalez was found dead and Naked.

Yea that was too much info.Like his family or friends need to hear that on tv years later

It was a real good scrap especially towards the end.

Conlan took a thrashing. Ancajas is a big player in the division though. I hope he gets invited to the "Super Fly" cards.

Cool I'll give it a watch after the Golden State game

For some reason I can't stand Matthew Macklin.

I'm the same

Such a smug prick for such a average fighter
