    Frampton is a very good fighter, rock solid at everything.

    Has anyone else noticed how heavy he seems to be for his height? It's weird. He is heavily muscled and quite stocky, but is very short compared to other fighters at the weigh, especially now he has moved up.

    I thought Santa Cruz's extra reach posed Carl some real issues in the most recent fight. Leo quite cleverly outboxed th shorter guy without engaging in a war like the the first fight.

    Looking at Carl's physique, he shouldn't have jumped up the weight. Does he struggle with making weight?
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    Yeah , he does struggle at the weight. He was short , even at SBW, but insisted he couldn't do the weight anymore, so went up to FW. I really thought that would be his undoing against Santa Cruz in the 1st fight, but he fought very skilfully.
    In the 2nd fight , LSC Made the necessary adjustments, and maybe now has learnt enough to have his number. But I've dismissed Frampton too many times and been proved wrong.
    He even came in a pound over at FW last time out.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Incidentally, the gym gossip is that he left McGuigan because he was still owed a lot of money from his last two fights ..... which is exactly the reason Barry left his manager and sued him

    Barry would have paid. Frampton lived in his house rent free for years!

    Yeah , Barry would've paid! I fucking said word for word YEARS AGO this would happen. Barry was a fighter, he is not a businessman. He proved it before and he's proved it again. Eubank Sr. is no different.
    Why do these dumbass boxers who can't manage their own finances think they can manage other people's for a living? Stick to what you know.
    You don't see Eddie Hearn trying to be a Boxer do you?

    Would love to see Eddie try and get it on with Rio.
