    30 years old in the prime of his life, lost a single fight and his days are numbered?

    In that he'll eventually have to retire? Of course.

    In that he's got a fight or 2 left? No chance. Unless he's brutally battered.

    Wouldn't make sense for him to pull out coz even though it wasn't an Eliminator for Frampton coz he missed the weight, it was still one for him

    I think i said he had about 4 fights left in him.

    I'm not acting the * , but i think he is on a downward slope and for someone as articulate as Frampton to miss weight is mind boggling.

    Fs, bit harsh man :giggle1:
    Glad he got leathered. Totally outclassed

    Guy is a * scumbag, acting the * that he is when getting interviewed after it. Good to see the pundits ripping in to him after it.

    Broner has been his own worst enemy, 4 weight class champion at a young age was touted to be the biggest name in boxing possibly even bigger than Mayweather and he * it up by playing boxing instead of hard work and training. At only 28 his career looks like there no where to go for him.

    Garcia should be a lot more well known than he is, I wonder if he needs that one big fight to get people to know who he is but he would need to move down weight against Lomachenko or move up weight and fight Crawford as his only competition at 135 is Linares or less known Robert Easter Jr.

    Ohara Davies is following him. If Broner kept his weight in check and grafted he would have had a solid career. He chased the money. With the way he is going he will be sevcoed and broke soon.

    yeah Ohara has the same mentality and personality, but with Ohara he just might not be any good, I rated him highly but to see him just smashed so easily by a prospect in Taylor suggests that Ohara may only ever be a mid level fighter.

    I never rated Davies highly. He is in the game for the money and fame only. If he screwed the nut he could steal a title at some point. Cant see him doing it though

    Aye mate I turned it over after about 5 rounds, he couldn't get near Garcia who was basically fighting in about 3rd gear.

    He kept shaking his head trying to act the big man saying it didn't hurt. Guy's the biggest * in boxing..

    I want to see him out cold with an oxygen pump..

    Sky announced its £19.95 on Box Office for McGregor V Mayweather, not bad.
