The Boxing thread

He was always up against it tonight, wrong side of 30 and had a lot of tough fights

proud man
Gutted for him
 
Frampton was done after the first knockdown, you could see in his eyes right there that he knew he had nothing left in the tank except his fighting pride. Good corner work to end it when they did, he was taking some heavy shots.
He’s had a good career but it has to be said that one less opportunity for the Kinahans to launder their drug money through boxing has to be good for the sport
 
Herring was too big, too long and too precise - didn’t miss a shot. I thought just before the first knockdown Frampton was starting to get on top, he caught Herring with two really good left hooks to the body which really hurt him. Frampton put his foot on the gas knowing that was his chance but walked on to a beauty and that was that. Two top people and careers but last night was definitely a step too far for Frampton

MTK global managed both boxers at a fight in Dubai. Seems like it's the Kinahans or Eddie Hearn if you want a fight promoted. Am waiting for a Marvin Herbert/Darren Gee fight to be up next :-)

Now now; you'd want to be careful what you say about those nice Kinahans!

Looked a bit washed up. Couldn’t believe difference in size though, like man v boy.

I think last night was the very epitome of the old boxing adage that a good big 'un will always beat a good little 'un. Dont think there was that much between them apart from the size advantage and that was enough
