Tonight then. Anyone got the feeling Quigg will come unstuck against Kiko, the odds for Kiko are certainly tempting. Crolla up against it versus Perez too. Couple of decent domestic match ups too, Foot v Eggington & Jenkins v Nurse are both worth a watch. Frampton on ITV too, decent night of boxing.

Hopefully Crolla will be able to keep himself together and stick to the gameplan on what is going to be an emotional night for him. I would be surprised if both he and Quigg win tonight, they are both up against quality experienced operators.

Frampton's first fight in US, I think he will be great and will put on a real show and KO Gonzalez.

Quigg disposes of Kiko in 2 rounds and minutes later Frampton is floored twice in the opening round of his fight in Texas.

Well, well...

Superb from Quigg, done himself now harm in answering the critics here. I'm not the biggest fan but the guy can punch!

Frampton has won every round since the first. This fight will do him some good, still fancy him to beat Quigg comfortably if they meet.

I have it much closer than that. I've no idea why Frampton is so intent on making this a war. Stay on the outside and dominate with the jab and he was schooling him.

These low blows from Gonzalez are a bit pathetic.

Well that was a wide decision. Frampton clearly won but I thought it was by 3 or 4 rounds rather than 6 or the 8 one judge had it.

Interesting to hear Frampton in his interview suggesting he might have to go up in weight.

If Frampton goes up in weight then he's in for a really tough division.

Walters, Lomachenko, Russell, Selby, crazy!

Crolla really putting a shift in. Got it 5-4 to Crolla at the moment.

Great night of British boxing ruined by a farcical judges decision.

Absolutely fuming at that decision tonight. I had it closer than McCrory but Crolla won the fight.

Absolute shithousery from the 3 judges ruins a decent night's boxing.

It was alot closer than the awful biased McCrory had it, for instance despite crolla hurting perez at the end of the 2nd, Perez dominated that round. As much as Crolla's workrate was excellant alot of punches were not connecting. For me the point deductions made the difference and Crolla should have nicked it. But its certainly not a robbery, it was very close.

Also had the Frampton fight alot closer than the judges with the points deductons probably making the difference. Kassi should have been given the win vs Arreola. Quigg very impressive, despite really struggling in the 1st, shen he hurt Kiko, he really didnt let him off the hook

Agree. Can you really see him stepping up though? Maybe he's trying to force Eddie Hearn's hand a bit?

Agree on Crolla. Thought the point deduction swung it his way, but it was a close fight. Not the worst decision I've seen. Probably not even the worst decision I've seen this year.

I had Crolla at 7-5 without the point deductions. Close fight, Crolla can feel hard done by.

TMZ reporting that Floyd v Andre Berto is agreed for Sept 12, to be aired on free TV in the States. This is a guy who has lost three of his last six fights.

lol at Khan btw.

I should damn well hope it's free as well, seeing as no boxing fan is going to pay to watch that. It's disappointing but Floyd is a hall of famer and has nothing left to prove to anyone, he's entitled to finish his career with an easy one.

Mayweather vs Berto is a joke, talk about low key to probably retire on.

Do you really think he'll retire on 49-0?

I've got a feeling he'll return with a final fight against Pacquiao to get to 50 and take the record.

Fury is just about my favourite person, away from boxing he seems like really nice fella but when it's interview time he's amazing. :lol:

Really looking forward to Rigo - Lomachenko though. Not sure if it's confirmed as yet, but it's got the potential to be a real FOTY candidate.

Isn't gonna happen. Rigo is running down his contract with Hyde before signing with Haymon. Hyde can't make Rigo do shit & has been making references to Loma out of desperation.

Looking forward to Campbell - Coyle on Saturday. Though on paper, Campbell should win fairly comfortably.

Coyle has so many flaws, Campbell will have him out of there by the fourth.

If there was a belt for trash talk he'd be undisputed champion.
