    Yea. As ive said above its actually an ok fight. I think Ambunda is the best fighter hes faced to date. Its just annoyin ghes doing it as a world champ. Id have no problem with this if it was a world title eliminator or something like that. But you want champs to be in big fights and they werent made when he wasnt a champ because theyd say they need a world title before the fight is made yadayadayada and then when one is a world champ they still dont fight.

    I know this is pretty standard across most champs in most weight classes buts its just very frustrating as a fan missing out on some potential classic fights.

    Looks like they will be meeting each other in the future, Quigg V Frampton so till then each
    will be having a few treading water fights.
    So don't expect them to fight any monsters,! before hand I enjoy watching both fighters pity
    someone has to lose.

    Why? If fights are close (which most expect will be) you have options of rematches/trilogies down the line which would do more money. Kiko could beat Frampton. Then what happens to the Quigg fight? Makes it more unlikely to happen

    Can't see Kiko beating Carl mater of fact Frampton will finish him off in about 6 rounds this time rounds he's got Kiko's number, the outstanding man is Rigo the others should give him a wide berth.

    Kiko is better than people think. His first fight with Frampton was very close before the stoppage however, he is unlikely to get a decision in Belfast.

    Rigo isnt as far ahead of the rest as most people think. In fact, a guy like Kiko could be a nightmare for Rigo. Kiko is one of the hardest hitters in the div and im not convinced on Rigos chin. Plus Kikos chin is as good as they get. Dont get me wrong Rigo is a massive fav but Kiko would have a chance.

    Rigo made Donaire look average I did not think it was possible but he did, I agree Kiko's a good
    fighter but Frampton's a level above,! and in boxing everyone's got a chance one punch can change
    everything, we must remember Monroe out boxed Kiko and Rigo is far better than Monroe.
    But all in all it's a talented weight division.

    The 1st fight Kiko was a bit unlucky not to get the decision. The 2nd he won easily but was still a tough fight. Munroe also has an excellent chin while Rigos is questionable. I also think Kiko has come on leaps and bounds since those defeats (I even think he has come on loads since his defeat to Frampton). It is a talented division but I think the gap between the top 5 and the rest is very high.
