a good win he got hit to much for my liking, you can't hope to beat Donaire if you can't slip punches.
I like Carl Frampton but don't move to fast to face, some excellent Super Bantam Champions,
Carl is a good fighter, but I would not over match him at this point in his career.
This fight would have taught Carl an awful lot. They can now review the tape and evaluate keeping in mind that Martinez was a swarmer looking for the one game changing shot. That ring had to be a twenty four footer. Lucky for him in hindsight that it was not 18 or 20. He deserves big props for that finish as KIKO has never been stopped. In addition that was a huge step up in class compared to what most 15 and 0 fighters take these days.
