"Cancer and Cancerous Promoters Can't Keep Good Men Down" LSC vs Frampton 7/30 Showtime Fight Thread

[GREENandYELLOW]

I guess you saw him fighting before.
I think he stayed the same, don't think that he transformed into a mini Golovkin.

mini Golovkin would be Roman Gonzalez but he is more accomplished and probably a little better

Nah, I have seen Mikey fight a lot. One of the bigger fans here not named @mr. smoke weed . Just that I thought Mikey employed a style more similar to GGG than people may be willing to admit, cause he is enemy #1 here right now.

 

[GREENandYELLOW]

preach...

I remember that Teon Kennedy fight tho. He beat that nikka so bad, Max said it should have counted as 2 losses.

but real talk, Frampton fought Quigg (when cats thought he was ducking him) and then fought LSC (who most picked to beat him) all in one year.

and now nikkas is giving him shyt for not fighting Rigo (who isn't trying to fight anybody above career mode jobber status his damn self)

Talk about living off of yesterday. That's Rigo's claim to fame and nikkas is still going whenever he KO's some bum that he's supposed to every 8 months or so.

Forreal...this year has been weak for fighter of the year worthy guys. Frampton may be the leader right now. Quigg and LSC are two good wins. With the upcoming schedule I could see him holding down that spot and maybe only being dethroned by the Ward-Kovalev winner. But heck, it is only summer, plentry of time for Frampton to get another fight in and have a better resume across three fights. Who would of thought?

I just say it's too early to say that just based on one "get back in shape" type of fight against a not too strong opponent

 

[reservoirdogs]

a fighter's true style only revealed when the opposition is on a higher level, against low tier opponents almost every good fighter will look like KO monsters, pressure fighter cause they don't want to waste their time schooling a stepping tone over 10-12 rounds.

The fact he has a LSC rematch, Selby, and GRJ make me not so hard on him for Rigo. Those are far better for money, attendance, and TV rating, plus he is still getting top 5 talent at 126. Rigo may be the most talented, but he has made himself the one to blame in that he needs to campaign for fights, he hasn't earned the right for everything to go through him.

Haven't paid attention, is Rigo willing to meet Frampton anywhere above 122?

Frampton wants to fight in Belfast next.

RigonGOAT is willing to travel

Make that shyt happen Team Frampton, you claim Rigon don't bring in the mulah...but i can guarantee he'll bring in more then the next opponent you choose.

Make it so

 

[GREENandYELLOW]

Apparently LSC does have a rematch clause and he can enact it whenever he wants. He can request it immediately or give Frampton a fight in between.

For the UK brehs, how popular is Selby over there?

To me it seems like Selby is his best financial option and he could look at unifying belts. On the broadcast Selby made it sound like he wanted to fight the winner of LSC-Frampton and not GRJ.

Rigo claiming he willing to move up to 126 for Frampton, but that's funny, because when Loma wanted to fight him at 126, Rigo asked for a 124 catchweight + a rehydration clause....PLUS big money



:sadrigo:

After that he was okay with the 126 nly thing he still wanted is the rehydration clause


Guillermo Rigondeaux agrees to fight Vasyl Lomachenko at 126lbs

plus he's a very small fighter even in 122, if he ever really moves up to 126 that's just respectful for me. And also, back then with Frampton and LSC his weightclass was better in quality now it's not that good as it while 126 stayed as good as it was so if he ever moves up it's logical that he does it now.

Frampton, Valdez, GRJ beware of el Chacal cause he comes to get the belt one of yours.
Maybe others won't want to fight him but if he moves up and becomes a mandatory for one of them then he can at least force that oe to fight him. It will be much harder to do anything against him.

Respect to Frampton for his W against LSC but when they made him to fight against Rigo in 122 he rather moved up, I don't think he can move up one more classes. Also GRJ is a small featherweight...
No escape.

The link you posted was from July 16th, 2015.....and it didnt include the fact Rigo turned down $1.5 million to face Loma & said himself that he wouldn't move up to 126 to face Loma either


From November 20th, 2015

“We never spoke to Bob Arum about fighting Lomachenko at 126,” Rigondeaux said. “I really want to know how much there is to make and he should come to 124. Money talks, [expletive] walks. If you give me the right money, we’ll do it. But in our reality, I’m the king of 122 and he’s 126 so we must meet in the middle.

“One and a half million for a Lomachenko fight is too little and I think it should be more,” Rigondeaux said

New Roc Nation fighter Guillermo Rigondeaux says he's ready for Vasyl Lomachenko

Sounds like a duck to me breh
