Frampton card

Anyone watching?

What do you make of it so far?

Great fight card. Gutted I missed it.

Paddy Barnes was very good. Showed some good power going to the body.

Conlon was brave, but he had no answer for the Philippines body attack and Pac like style.

Frampton was in a very tough exciting fight again. Deserved the nod, but he doesn't beat LSC and possibly Quigg too, unless he ups his game. Was the stamina issue due to being inactive? Tough weight cut? Who knows! Seems to struggle with the relentless Mexican style.

Was a very good fight card and was nice seeing Alveraz there!

Genius

Was at the fight last night. Great atmosphere as always. Closer than I would have liked but hopefully just ring rust!

Got talking to Scott Quigg outside after aswell, who says he is eyeing up a rematch (No surprises there really).

Frampton next opponent it’s going to be a no-mark isn’t it why not let’s have the Quigg rematch next instead

Would happily watch a Quigg rematch. I imagine Quigg will have been watching that and thinking he would have a great shot of beating Frampton this time!

Love to see the Quigg rematch it’s actually never going to better primed than it is now but there you are

I know the way we can improve this game to ensure everybody fights each other- champions should be forced to fight four times a year or have to relinquish

This fighting twice(or less) a year is what’s ruining the game and why fans don’t get to see enough good fights

I would be more than happy with 3 fights a year per fighter to be honest (the established ones anyway, obviously prospects will fight more regular).

Three fights a year would be a good start

And if a champion gets injured make him champion emeritus or something and the next two in line fight for the title

May sound a bit radical but it would increase competition no end, keep fighters active(a good thing imo,) promoters wouldn’t be able to milk fuc£ out of fighters, and the fans would get to see a lot more good fights

Now someone tell me why it couldn’t happen...

Too complicated too many governing bodies I guess..

You lower demand if you double the amount of fights a year and begs the question of where you're getting the money from to pay for the increase?

Frampton wanted to stand and fight too much, I think that may be where he'll miss Shane McGuigan most. He knew him as a fighter and how he would do that and reign him in to fight smarter

Not true, it all depends on what you offer

Pricing might need to change, bring it down and you keep the hardcore fans happy and maybe attract more casual fans

Can always alternate too between free and pay tv and build a brand and fanbase and maybe fighter some lesser names there

You say it's not true then admit yourself that pricing would have to change.

Because your insinuation was that it wasn't possible to increase revenue
