Fair play to Warrington I said this fight will go distance and it's 50:50 but Warringtons start and combinations during the fight were something else

Serious respect between the pair, great to see

Good scrap. Warrington's volume just way too much from the get go. Much better footwork throughout.

Frampton game but the tough fights he's had have caught up with in.

Some beaut from Whyte to finish the battle of the big guys.

Milltown Row2

In a house tonight with a bunch of Frampton's, they all had Warrington as fav before the fight, but Warringtons tactics were on point. The level of fitness was evident from the start. I hope Carl thinks this through and retires
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Think the only fights that could interest Frampton now are a rematch and LSC 3. Don't see either of them happening, so that might well be that.

Look Carl could fill a decent crowd in Belfast again but the reality is he may do his reputation more harm than good.

Lovely fella who I've know personally for many years. Been a joy to watch him fight and I still have great memories of taking his granda to the meadowbank arena for his first professional fight, great journey..

2 PPVs on one night. 
Warren announced first and Hearn came in with his. No love lost there
Not that I forked out......... ;D ;D ;D

Does Frampton need the money though? He might need a few pound after the McGuigans cleaned him. Hopefully he retires as he looked done last night against a hungrier fighter. He's had a great career.

Jim Bob

May need it for the McGuigan scrap next year !!!

Was a quality fight. Warrington put in a serious shift and seemed able to really hurt Frampton. Carl landed some accurate big shots but they weren't having the same effect. He fought well though and I do think retirement would be premature. Perhaps a fight with Selby?

Over the Bar

If Frampton has to fight on due to money issues  it would be a shame.

Milltown Row2

I believe he was paid what he was owed by McGuigan in their last court action.. there may be another pending, but let's face it, people want to believe these guys make a fortune, they don't, and by all accounts they'll retire a lot earlier than the normal worker. Being comfortable, I'm sure he will be but not well off the way Fury and co are

Frampton will win handily enough. I heard the same hype around Quigg. It seems to be an English thing. And a split decision was an embarassing accounting of that night, too.

Frampton remains the best featherweight in the world and this is just a stepping stone on the path to Santa Cruz III, which is the fight people really want to see. After two excellent fights already it has the potential to make that rivalry one of the all-time greats.

There's an owl lad around the town that often warns about "Know-It-All's".....

It isn't just boxing though. He knows it all about EVERYTHING.
