Good performance from Jono Carroll just now but Christ Joe Gallagher didn't do Quigg any favours there. It was getting pretty dangerous in there for him.

So Fury v Joshua is on, twice....

Bit of a social media storm with it....Fury knew what he was at

Kinahan looks to have had a major influence in getting these fights organised.

Few journalists will be having fits

[gallsman]

Hopefully not just journalists.

Matt Cooper came straight out on his show and said we wont be giving this fight any attention. Unfortunately in the grand scheme of things The Last Word wont have much impact if it reports on it or not. Hopefully some of the bigger media outlets expose this sc**bag to the world.

Think #danielkinahan is bad? Just remember back to when The General, Martin Cahill, began moonlighting as a football agent and was behind Ronaldo's move from PSV to Barcelona.

Gary Lineker was tweeting about the fight and some people sent him links to Kinahan which he obviously read given his reply

[nrico2006]

Seems to be at it every fight too. You'd think he'd learn.

[gallsman]

Lucky enough escape alright but he looked good and did well to get the finish.

Frampton not looking great here so far. Sluggish and easily hit by a guy who shouldn't even be on his radar.

Won it handy in 1st gear having gone up in weight.

[LilySavage]

Yah, i doubt he would even spar him . Late replacement. Be interesting to see if they go ahead with Herring without a crowd. Herring towers over Frampton sizewise  but his record isnt all that. Beat a Japanese to get his strap.

What on earth is that supposed to mean? You realise one of the best lb for lb boxers on the planet is Japanese?

[LilySavage]

Calm down. What was meant was there are sometimes softer World Titkes won when boxing against Japanese fighters who have strong domestic records. TJ Dohenys for example. Wayne McCullough to a lesser extent. My overall point is that Herrings CV is not as stellar as one may think.

[nrico2006]

Japan would have far more champions than us at the lower weights, seem to do very well. Frampton is on the slide and hasnt had a victory of note in some time, but would love to see him beat Herring.

See Breakhus lost last night to a girl Taylor beat before, McCaskill. Real opportunity for Taylor to get all 4 WW belts in one fight if she can be smart and box Persoon. Persoon is fitter than Taylor but she recently lost an amateur fight, dont think much can be read into that though. She seems a slow starter who comes on as the rounds progress.

[gallsman]

KT potentially in trouble here. Persoon winning plenty of rounds through sheer relentlessness.

Could be 6-4 to either of them or easily a draw.
