Carl "overrated" Frampton

I haven't seen the fight but Frampton was a very good fighter once. But he is ageing and fading, it happens to everyone.

Very surprised he didn't pull through.

One good win against LSC and then got worked over in the rematch and had ZERO interest in a third fight as he knew he got lucky first time round plain and simple.

Warrington himself isn't any great shakes and he battered Frampton last night

Time to retire

But of a prick aren't you...Frampton looked out of sorts. He's lost his sharpness, could be weight, but he is also nearly 32 is quite old for a fw especially one that is not discipl8ned between fights. I think Warrington is underrated and caught Frampton at the right time

He beat nonito which was good

He's a great fighter just past his peak now. Certainly not overrated As u say.

Not overrated. Carl has had a brilliant career with good wins over LSC, Quigg, Kiko x2 and a faded and heavy Donaire. I reckon he's still got some in the tank but the younger, stronger, bigger Champion deservedly won a thoroughly entertaining high-level fight last night.

Warrington deserves mad respect for his last 2 wins. On the cusps of p4p.

Warrington is good.

He’s not getting knocked out at that weight and he’s bull strong, very fit and gets off in combination. His feet are brilliant and whenever his opponent is not set to punch he’s on them like a lump of s.hit. Santa Cruz might go with him but I think Warrington beats him as well

I don’t know what people don’t see. I’m not even a fan.

People see a low KO percentage and presume s fighter can’t win at level. Warrington could shove some of these featherweights in a wardrobe against their will feeding them nothing but fat balls

apparently, there's a karmic curse that will come to you after you beat nonito donaire.

just checked what happened to Rigo, Walters, Magdaleno, and now Frampton.

It's crazy how four of them beat donaire but donaire still in the top of his game right now in his division and considered a dark horse. Meanwhile the four of them are fading..despite three of them still relatively young compared to donaire..

Totally agree it was a good fight though and certainly tried his best but Warrington just the better man on the day.
