Where in London?

Given the current covid restrictions, a live audience doesn't seem likely.

I have Frampton on points in this one. Also Carl, I love you bro, but beating Herring isn't gonna get that HOF place. Maybe holding titles in 3 divisions may get him on the ballot but not in.

I have Frampton losing to Stevenson in his first defense. Stylistically and size-wise it's a bad match-up for Frampton. Herring isn't as refined as Stevenson, plus he's lost a couple to lesser foes, so I have no problem picking Frampton to beat him. Stevenson is a step too far I feel. I think Carl should then challenge Jojo Diaz or Guttierez as I see those as winnable fights for him with the right gameplan. Then I'd like to see the trilogy with Leo Santa Cruz happen. A trilogy, regardless of who wins, helps both of their legacies massively and could rubber stamp their legacies, particularly if it's a close FOTY level fight. Then we can start talking about HOF because even past his prime he'd have won two titles at 130, fought credible opponents and would leave the sport with the respect of fans all around.

Shame it’s not in front of a Belfast crowd isn’t it. I think this will be his last fight win or lose.

Gutted I can’t go as well, I was at Frampton’s debut on an undercard in Liverpool, I just saw something in him so have followed his career closely ever since.

I’m 99% sure it’ll be behind closed doors, I still think we’ll be in lockdown during mid February.

This fight has 0% chance of taking place in London or any other british city in february, we are in full lockdown and London has issued a state of emergency too. All boxing is suspended through january and i fully expect it to be extended to at least the end of march......brainless announcement really
