Carl Frampton v Jamel Herring

[Master]

Frampton was causing damage at the start of the 5th getting inside but got caught coming in and knocked down.

4-1 Herring with a knock down.

[Primo Carnera]

Game effort from Frampton, as always. Nothing to be ashamed of, but at the end of the day he was just giving away too much. Props to Herring, he showed impressive ring craft.

Herring stops Frampton landing a vicious uppercut and then his corner throwing in the towel in the 6th.

Herring did very well using the jab and that southpaw left uppercut.

[Spicoli]

Lesson relearned never pick against a Marine . And f these bubble bouts..that finish needed far more than just 1 fan clapping. Outstanding finish!

Carl Frampton announces his retirement. That was a good fight and very gracious fighters the both of them.

[Primo Carnera]

That was a perfect post fight interview from Frampton, very dignified and I love the way he diverted the interviewer to the winner. Top Man, best of luck in his retirement.

We need more of that, very genuine from two class acts.

B3en on the drink all day and forgot about this, put channel 5 +1 on and it had just started, on round 2 now,

If love to see Frampton to it but the physical advantages for Herring are there for all to see

[X]

He has always been heavy for his height, and the reach and height difference here was astonishing. A weight too far for him, I think.

Frampton has been a really good fighter, but he has always preferred his opponents to come towards him. He is essentially a counterpuncher, but you can’t do that when you are giving away so much reach.

Herring fought really well, controlled the distance, kept Frampton off him and hurt him often. I just thought that Frampton never managed to adjust his style to being a short pressure fighter and ran out of ideas really. His trainer has a few questions to answer about what exactly the game plan was?

Golovkin was the best I’ve seen at using footwork to keep your opponent under constant tremendous pressure, Carl ended up being the one backing off and circling around. It all just went wrong really.
