The Boxing thread

I agree, this all seems very dramatised though, if not more than usual... Joshua has the Weapons to take him out early but can see it mirroring the Whyte fight somewhat...
Yeah it does i agree. I think we are desperate for a Heavyweight Champ who looks the part (sorry Fury haha) and i think that in itself has created the drama. Also because Martin is such an unknown quantity despite being Champ.
Frampton is in a no win situation with Rigo. Rigo for whatever reason just wont or cant get a visa for whatever reason in the UK. He was supposed to fight Jazza Dickens but he flew back to the US. I know Carl would fight Rigo but it would make more sense if any fight was to take place it would be in Belfast were Carl could sell out a arena as Rigo and Carl wouldnt be a big draw in the US. Carl v Santa Cruz could happen in the US it seems and if Carl wins that he will become a bigger name there. Still feel Carl v Selby might happen to when he moves up.

As for AJ not too sure on either him or Charles Martin. I honestly think Southpaw he is a champion novice like but hes champion 7/2 to win the fight was too big of a price for him. I went for Martin I think AJ has a world championship in him but if it is now or in a few years time I just dont know yet. AJ just hasnt been overly tested on his chin.
It wouldn't surprise me if Frampton fights Shingo Wake, then maybe even Gavin McDonnell before moving up (if he racks up another decently ranked win in the meantime). Seems strange for them both to be on the same card last time out. Always makes me suspicious. I remember when Groves was on a Froch undercard and it was clear to see what was being plotted. At the time it seemed totally ridiculous but look what happened.
