Slept in and missed the Crawford fight ffs. Anyone watch it? He's some operator!

Talk on Belfast Boxers Facebook page last night that Frampton's career is being taken over by Al Haymon and talk of a £15m 4 fight deal. Would be great for him to get that sort of money and then leave with his health intact!

Indeed. The sooner Carl splits from the SlyClone the better!

rigondeaux and lomachenko is a done deal apparently. The two of the most skilled men about!!

Watched the Crawford fight last night. The body shot that finished it was absolutely vicious. He's some operator. Assuming he moves up now, there are some brilliant fights to be made at 147.

Crawford is unreal.  Indongo looked brilliant against Burns too. 

Wonder if the Rigondeaux fight will be at 130?  Lomachenko will definitely have the size advantage, but I agree that its arguably the two most skilled fighters int he world facing each other but Rigondeaux is pushing on a bit now so you would have to favour hi-tech.

was away at the weekend so have to get the crawford match on catchup.  Indongo looked massive for that weight against Burns so interested to see how Crawford dealt with him.

The loma v Rigo fight looks a great pairing! Not sure that Lomanchenko has the power that Rigo does but he probably is the more skilful. could go either way. Rigo finally getting the big fight he deserves.

Rigo is probably too old now yeah. Bit of a shame they didn't cross paths a few years ago.

I want to see Crawford and Spence. Some talent around those divisions. Garcia, Thurman, Spence, Crawford, Porter etc! Even the likes of Mikey Garcia maybe meeting some of the 140 boys at catchweight fights. Boxing is dying though  ::)

Still using Shane though?

LOL, of course not.  Ties have been cut.  Thats business.  Probably for the best, he was probably scundered with the McGuigans, surprised he stuck them for so long.

The travel expenses from Clones proved too much.

Maybe I've missed it but I haven't read anywhere that he's left Shane? Not all Shane's fighters are with Cyclone Promotions.

Why are you surprised he stuck with Shane McGuigan for so long?

Watched the Crawford fight there.. A serious operator! Not long now to the Alvarez GGG fight, should be some scrap
