[Applause] there goes a record when you take one step back don't throw any pushes on the back of the head let's take yourselves all the times touch was for not lights a lot of respect between these two lights all the way through the build up but that kind of ends now because this is it [Applause] a great domestic showdown the IBF featherweight world title is Warrington going to retain all Carl Frampton move back towards his dream early stages could be absolutely instructive as to how this fight might actually go [Applause] we all says is about war great with John Swanson but he show the differ at the different sides of his game against these shall be where he was the busier fight that he hidden rushing that we thought he had to do and also become friendly other heavier handle the to tend to think that to make a busier I feel your power early just makes him is more tentative tamales attacks Frampton is the man with the but he's the older man and be able to fight for three minutes of Admiral Warrington has never been the or pro which out there from Wharton stepping behind it as well he's not a big-time chef I don't I think he's and you feel you think you feel them he's not a tippy tappy type there's any point to anything as respect it's good therefore warranty Latricia from the champion pack comes from two - well this go to this fine right away big right time as well goodness waterstones he said in trouble in front then his legs have stiffened he's still feeling the weight of it the prompters gonna have to dig in here he is gonna have to find a real fighting resolve because worry Turner's come out here in this opening round and kept very close to absolutely mugging you don't believe this now either way wanna eat with Bradley destroy water there was one thing keep throwing good body shot therefore Warrenton brilliant stuff from Warrington still a minute to go in this opening round still of the case as well I think here Cal Frampton Nexus steady we're thinking he's not quite there yet well Warrington will see more closer than anybody if that's the case every second that passes Frampton will recover and regain composure but if he worried about or wondered about the power of Josh Warrington he knows all about it now and again if you men took to the chimney for morons and the fronton felt [Applause] Frampton's magnificent good shots himself the world is just shaking a muff and swinging away what an extraordinary start to the fights good job again for morons in closing seconds of the opening round under the massive ground for the champion what about that Frisco Mary takes your breath away with jeans doubt they're for George Washington win in their own words would be no authority to even be rocking fat down upon the heels of his boots sean o'hagan he responded with your warranty - thank you let's look again at Bally's gotta join their dumb props is right that's when he's at his weakest and one I just followed him run up on the ropes and enter started going and even though from the lands with a good shot and a couple of good shots he's one of the new got he got the Grippit in his seat there the physical strength certainly never really we never really talked about physical strength ton of empowered and world briefed or not and one of them might be a true story [Applause] first round no doubt about where that one's gone 11 still to go though who all the experience and ring craft of Carl France and he's going to be needed great advice in the corner there from from sean o'hagan faint then installed Engle little step back then go again feel like you did with me Shelby at the age of 13 he was brought up by his dad alone Josh Warrington with his two brothers sean o'hagan sometimes sometime taxi driver [Applause] the church presale beforehand used to work the doors as well not particularly well according to him he said they used to get filled in on a regular basis to earn a few quid to feed him [Applause] with right hand there from just Wellington also frankly just can't find his range yet he's beating beating Frampton to the punch at the moment out jabbing him - gotta get into some sort of a rhythm rancid waiting for Brampton to commit himself [Applause] the best if they're from Caltrans in it's still very tentative there his hands go that have had going in and Steve great straightaway on Frampton's case [Applause] it's better construction with the wall gone again came from some cover-up Frampton tryna fire back off those ropes lovely shots [Applause] he's home again chuckle is he going to go willing to take jeans he's trying to take it attend the fractions stiff legs [Applause] by time has to recover let me hold turn that somehow stays aloft somehow stays upright but the fighting spirit that from today Knievel's gone and he still not be covered properly [Applause] what a still this has been from Josh Warrington the champion [Applause] unbelievable stuff but Frampton is still there he has that class he has those boxing skills that they're being taken away from him at the moment last few seconds of the second round Massey was a joke Warrington fixing aroma [Applause] [Applause] some of the language there but you can understand the desperation in the words that Jamie Moore - from the one on the straw and he worked in the body and frankness the nursing contact the tryna halt but the one she's down throwing there's a big gap stay awhile understand shocked or looking like a whirlwind and even though he's taking shots he just keeps throwing and as we lose another kicked in there somewhere there really were that right hand over the top that really rock from then I left it there as well and I'm trying to say there from now I'll never know [Music] oh good Josh waters do it you can't fall from that he's that she's gonna where he is he's just swinging like a lunatic looking did not look at the survived third round Josh Warrington the IBF champion so far Kyle Frampton quickly off his stool and wants to meet fire with fire but it has to be educated pressure [Applause] Trump's and again waiting waiting and Warrington also wait in waiting for Frampton to commit himself it's the sound of the Leeds fans you can hear predominantly at this stage who wrote on the FM fronting but again the 100 takes you help this town says you forward well he has got a granite chin [Applause] maybe Frampton's best punch so far only a single chopper [Applause] so he always thought that he was confronted after make his top make wonderful his tall attorney just to make a thing about book rushing into attacks and it was the other way around last people say Warrington can't punch who say any punch Alan to get you respect but no and I think they're still right he's going looking for him again Crumpton showing good footwork getting away lands have good right into the body what we did say about these two fighters they will commit and they've shown that already right and again from Warrington Frampton took it so well though which is not allowing front than any space to soar get any Turkish on his trenches Trump's in with a little bit of marking underneath the left eye he stopped throwing some things in his own here at Cal Frampton he's really got to think on his feets got to work this guy out Carl Frampton it was good for one of the he's in at the two fat away the docket and company with the same habit I think I'd be a good thing to stress with it when one of the practice was our left hand just drop it and saw that right hand over the top I said shout [Applause] much quiet around this one so far the leech imagine Anson writes around the Manchester Arena the bats around for from Tania's regrouped how's he done enough to win the round closer Jonathan [Applause] a water don't be aware [Music] nobody's really expected it to start like this 20,000 or so here in the Manchester Arena loving what they're seeing that's the first punch that Carl Frampton has landed to date that right hand we are fantastically staff for the groundcar fronted but then again warrant an end athlete with Iran's breeches teeth dispense the punches go look at that first shot could you split them no I didn't stream John I think he was trapped in his best role but I still thought that one others didn't after one of the share of it second into the fourth round [Applause] well after that whirlwind staff from Carl from Jaws warrington Carl Frampton looking to narrow the gap to box his way into this [Applause] good job there four wives and again steps behind it as well as me to envision it and then we'll wait on the shuttle to even push back off get away from distance so many people thought it would be France and who would make the fast start and then it would be Warrington coming on strong the longer the fight won't ask who they're from Franklin you're correct honor so because we saw it [Applause] what's ahead there from the body shot go from just wanted it again [Applause] solid rock time fantastic bite and therefore Franklin again no one who didn't bury think [Applause] and absolutely couldn't continue as it did in the first two rounds let's become altogether more magic now there's a nice right hand from Warrington which out there though [Applause] they're good publishing from France and good elusive skills as well they'll be careful with us step back of wine little chewy shots [Applause] we were there from Cal Frampton a much better boxing from the Irishman [Applause] very much so on the skills of just Warrington and know all about how to negate them but he just negated the rush there but to step in though time for Lorenson they go toe-to-toe once again in the closing stages of this war ground must have took because they're from camping them rather than throwing that in drugs to give out tampon from Wallington I didn't see the long shots I didn't either and the more I should feel something so wrong call [Applause] for the most part car fronts and boxing beautifully Warrington coming on strong in the closing stages but much better from France and here with Jamie more when you see kids you all to change he's trying to make me simple because you can't poke me off keeping whatever you write down there for frontages timer that really well just get a little like I lean over to the left a lot of it okay goodbye the shop moving Late Show be careful I'll leave back that spot on to the being the shorter outfight is the too much better boxing therefore front regain composure so Frampton probably narrows the gap in that fourth round [Applause] very just edging it to Josh Warrington at this stage [Applause] just by the single points third round so difficult to score [Applause] to work on that swelling beneath the left eye of Carl Frampton not the problem at this stage he's to get a high tempo again Josh Donovan a slow release it seemed the shoot now fronting [Applause] I think that took therefore more intent on the right time and the loser it stunned again frampton but one of these do these people tease right two-factor can throw back three clever they're from Franklin cook cause she wasn't coming forward don't tell event didn't know [Applause] by three years the older man [Applause] imagine again with job there I'm finally shot there from origin to the right [Applause] I think we're landing the [Applause] said relying on boxing skills good shot from Warrington and the body shots Leticia down on the neck down hit since Wallington going to trying to show that physically he's the stronger man he's time to bully France and back again [Applause] don't involve sticking in a couple of decent body shots on his own go down the looping that took chair as well the intensity when they unleash like this is almost frightening but the wheat salt could be fun from it's not an event in Warrenton only thing he's for me I think he's out working him again here's his good touch the plugs at the end of it the respect continues but if Warrington take that round yet Amiga to win it I'm limping clinical what he's doing is waiting for you up on it we only want one single tip of it so picky I must go though you know they're looking with left or right I'm sure when he's doing that honey pillows now you've gotta keep up in your pants again warrington ahead on Barry's car mantra Serena watches a fight which is developing into something which might at some stage if it carries on in what we've seen so far we might be looking back at it as a real classic [Applause] Frampton needs to find more though he says [Applause] these dreams of the fight against Oscar Valdez they number the WBO champion or against Leo Santa Cruz the WBA champion all rest on first beating Josh Warrington what's surprising to me is that when they when they out of his clothes exchanging punches what a good doesn't look over place you thought that would be Franklin's home and it's not he's measuring his shots well because one takes a big shot he's just taken anything between to throw so he has to try and touch water in the back and feeling what Kelly's back to the ropes really can really generate as much power but he's how to push off on the back video and you squared up on the ropes so I am gonna go bum around the back of the head call frontin the referee agree [Applause] there's another fake before he rushes in now Warrington she's trying to allow right hand Trenton's with Bobby shot from Carl Frampton out invades the left hook they've just slowed the taste under hasn't it just shoots him a little bit better [Applause] good shot well time there from Franklin again is leaning back with that left hook spinning off you can move to his right when he retreats to his right up until every time one of them rushes him must be something they thought up thought over and they're trying to implement and now here comes Warrington again with a terrific intensity was clipped by one right encounter friendsand this is all Warrington now [Applause] [Music] [Applause] - trying to fight back off the ropes next I'm sorry for fronting but the better of the exchange going to the champion will be a little choice for more intercourse now it's Frampton trying to apply some some pressure and when they get into those toe-to-toe exchanges Josh Warrington for me looks as though he's getting the better of it can be a member when you get him always it was a runway front there was milk just check out the face though doc do you guys just wrote them all the warrant then all of a sudden get on the ropes and just explodes he really makes the most of it in his little opportunity windows of opportunity while the moon makes the most of them really doesn't the disk keeps working away whatever comes back from Frampton you've all let him off the ropes and he won't let him throw more than one touch of the time into the second half of the fight where most people thought it was going to perhaps if it went to this point be Josh Warrington territory from here on well at halfway Barry's got Josh Warrington with a handy lead into the seventh [Applause] it was a big thing we're talking about a big thing before the final Franklin's got to meet one under-filled is taller I think he has I just think Warren's who can take it he has got an absolute extraordinary chin sir Barry's got it by three points in Josh Warrington's favor the thing I'm going to give one round to Frampton ultra chicks it's unbelievable to think that oh good little talks and that he is Norrington out thoughts I have thoughts for Molly she'll be an is he out thinking Carl Frampton underrated sure he gonna hear the game plans with him and his human and Josh no Nick manners of course is well they get think that's no one ever talks about hope they ring IQ and why they get their gametime spot on [Applause] Frampton has been down in fights before somebody somewhere in the dim and distant might remember Josh going down as a narrative but there's no record of it nice uncertainty not certainly not as a pro [Applause] the ploy so they haven't found that we take back my Warrenton secured Wiggles spelled maybe poor frampton that Warrington has other ideas he has to ship a big left hook but look at the way he just will not be denied rotation when again these exchanges random ugly the bigger puncher but Wilder walk will not yield first and showing that much [Applause] maybe the biggest fun thing bigger thunder I'm not convinced actually [Applause] Warrington has had France and going with body shots in front to monster hold on again closing stages of a seventh round which Frampton really had two wins leads to stay in contact Diddy diddy all certainly very close round indeed [Applause] just edging maybe way to prompt and they're very funny because of the early work John but when they think all talk it's only again I think we've had a big good shots Frampton one of those keeps fighting back and even pushing impact as well but I still do think that you see their left hook funny the better shots in an exchange did come from over all came from Ocala Frampton but one of them all stop stalling he France got uh stopped throwing first he just keeps bringing those shots in takes him on the chin keeps firing back Sarfaraz got it if you pick up the odd x-rated word in the corners of r-rated word or whatever we call it apologies I guess but it is certainly absolutely fascinating and fiercely committed fight so far in the heat of the moment they forgot to put call Frampton's gum seal then [Applause] Frampton is going to have to produce rounds now as good as those that he found in the first fight against Leo Santa Cruz he's going to have to produce some absolutely top-class boxing if he's going to prevail here a good run comes up from crap governor Warren said right hand and the left as well with by the time I left hook there from Frampton go toe to toe again it just count the two one two though billions now maybe some really good shots enough to make me back up a whole bottle and wanted to have you back crimson come tryna come on storm here in this eighth round let's be there from Toronto with the mod to start him on Claude in his work maybe that little exchanges body shots as well and worried to just giving a little bit of ground [Applause] and his team believe that Josh Warrington wouldn't be able to replicate what he produced at Allen Road when he won the title and fronting meadow is clearly jegging good work from the Irishman that comes Warrington and a little bit of swelling around the right eye of just Warrington now I think but also a stick some a lot of these things as a big burst as well from Frampton you could feel because he felt it physically as well the real a fat then question marks about whether he can sustain it for three minutes of around Warrington just allowing him to take a little breather [Applause] two of them landing almost simultaneously with heavy shots good job there [Applause] she'll come back there water that he made from the mists really digging in [Applause] he is having to go absolutely into the world conference and back homes were eaten again another tremendous round what a great three minutes Frandsen dominating the early exchanges maybe having the better quality punchers yeah I thought you were I thought you were wrong when they would when they were letting go I think that back when she would come in from for the most out from Cal front then he started off strong and then when we Josh did see size while inside that mixed with him I still felt for the most part they've got frothing at the back of it we should let me on to hurt him fantastic seven they really just talked to Toby didn't it so one look at the hold on that's tender that ring just weird in a way fantastic right and therefore Franco and yet because warrant just doesn't even blink just fires back tremendous fight here at the Emmy an arena for rounds together it's front to coming back into it certainly in looks to us as I may have won the last couple of rounds to narrow the gap yeah but our seventh round was very close either way that's how Berry's got it [Applause] quite start to the round [Applause] total gonna be happy you can cook connect with our I'll turn there Frampton lovely from one of them lovely ones who worked on the center of the god [Applause] or 2:30 shopping for profits on the right side two of them trading quality shots in this ninth round the teams got to be setting in for both men who's going to be the fitter [Applause] great work from Warrington [Applause] Frandsen has to absorb another crushing right hand busy since as utah's as our left hand nobody britain though he throws out this sloppy they get to take the taste for price without rights out there for one of them good time trampling over there with a look at blow in Warrington continues to fire back lovely good word and das Florida Branson gave a lot in the eighth round in the ninth is he just struggling to maintain that sort of intensity [Applause] that's why I walk in there that what I'm skipping away [Applause] what time they want best friend ransom that look at Warrington responds instantaneously and trusted bully Frampton back [Applause] good doggie shelf from 30 these are the pulses which really sucked strength this is all about conditioning now the lovely left hook there did she factors absolutely knackered Livie left at therefore wasn't Warrington round are writing that one and has he now withstood all that Frampton can throttle [Music] oh you got there say he might not find the way they were saying it but they raped me Carl traps and he's absolutely all it when he had the first interval of the Rada you see all the effort went into his word there from that even throwing and one of those just got just a tremendous engine it's a fantastic band of all time fired and back to me you got no laws you got a hamster breath in his lungs but one of the just they'll just cool with loss or some French it's just a work ship every time okay is he just a veg spent Cole Branson has three rounds left to probably turn this fight around and come from behind we reckon that Warrington well in charge and Jamie more saying to Karl Frampton are you okay are you okay before he sent him out for this 10th the shot there from Frampton [Applause] but he look absolutely naka the near the end of that round he did with what difference what difference can a minute have made [Applause] Frampton was quoted as shorter price with some bookies is 9/2 forearm which struck me as an extraordinary misjudgment but these guys take their take their information from various sources and that's the way they saw it the time to jump on one the way he steps in and on today in a lot of distances nobody asked it works Google for warrants and again there he's looking very much the fresher man in there now I stood there from Cal frontin well as you said in the last round he's going to keep on fighting until it is absolutely knocked out of it cannot look at the item it's being knocked out in now Warrington bullies in back onto the ropes again some engine on these two especially warrant [Applause] there was a film made about Josh Warrington on his way to the title fighting for a city and the Leeds fans are in full voice and are very very proud of their man still front and tries to work away to the body tries to bring in uppercuts he will not yield a ton of tasty shots here Frank than the piano hustle here by one of them toe-to-toe again he's shattered Frampton is absolutely shattered bellowing advice from the frampton corner trying so hard that the eagle shot Ishii to ever need every punch I think how much as he got left warrington the hand on our cards and still as you can see with a spring in each step [Applause] if jabbed therefore Warrenton again and again to think we literally went back from Franklin though it continues to throw some quality shots but Warrington is fighting like a champion he's holding his feet in he's mixing it with Frampton he's began the better at times with all muscle in him of course when you thought this would be frowned instead of Tory know if Nick front is placing his shots really well they front though one of his landings a good shot for one just keeps throwing and they're not the front one as you're not just throwing willy-nilly he's like you trying to place the shots as well just at the higher work-rate tremendous does the tenacity and the desire great shot as well font from France they're going back there's like over his credit but one of them still showing up great chin just running through it two rounds to go two rounds in which Carl France and has got to have massive success [Music] Josh Warrington consents his second massive win of the year two rounds to go were in the 11th [Applause] Branson has regrouped and again looked absolutely spent as he went back to his corner at the lair at the end of the last round but his powers of recovery you have to really give huge credit good right and from Frampton actually talks a good chap for Warrenton to be honest that's a fantastic living jab - frankly stay notionally touching up through the garden [Applause] by the 90s drive isn't it though it's a fight that you're happy to have seen it's great to see two fighters absolutely at the pinnacle of the sport from Britain's again to see now lovey stepping behind it to the jab therefore Warrenton [Applause] Warrington just been a little bit too fresh the car fronting edition he's even solved the tower I found that is to tell you though used to people not just accept the ticket except for Santa Cruz taking it and firing back the incredible opening that Josh Warrington produced in those first two rounds surely must have shocked for Upton I believe without then they'll move that was little shimmy think low cutoff the chants are going up again from the Leeds fans he just did that in an old safe though giaffone limping right hands belfast fans have travelled far and wide and vociferous lee and passionately in support of Carl Frampton that is he going to taste defeat here tonight he may well need a knockout and it doesn't look as though it is going to come wigging in that right hand with an air of desperation car frampton up in left hook there he's just stumbled in back there Warrington good look at front and fight back if you're watching this unmoved by the passion and commitment of these two man then frankly you're watching the wrong sport just Warrington is heading towards the winning line and looks as though he's taken another round there I just think it just the engine on the kid is something else it really is I'm sort of on Steve Robinson in the nineties and one has been a better fighter that happened he has that sort of engine always looking like 90 feet straight up turning it boys Shauna Hagan kind of has open house at his place up to contest as great as he's cooking for about 20 people for Christmas dinner after this a searing that he wins and what a lovely moment there between the two guys assuming Warrington wins I think half Liege is going to want to be there I just got to say you see them toast globe so I could write on the hip from wanted them you don't need all these bad brothers produce a fantastic contest just barely been a bad word between them right the way through huge amounts of respect between the two fighters I think are four amps and thought that he was at a different level and that he thought he'd be a superior boxer to flash heads and is he cut we certainly stumped and see a swelling there on the left-hand side of his head coming up [Applause] at times you wonder where that Joss Warrington's had such a made of baggage is estimated to cease them to take absolutely anything he just takes that one shot with a bit of bit of speed bit of snap you don't see it could still cut therefore warnings and Greg right encountering Frampton's in trouble again trying to fight back on instinct now the Irishman just as a jump already square these feet and wonders whipping out uppercut [Applause] and Warrington up on his toes looks fresher and so much brighter hardly looks in comparison to Frampton as there has been in a fight it has been a steering performance crunch and keeps coming forward keeps trying to find the one big payoff punch [Applause] if you've spent your money to be with us tonight good investment because everybody who spent money to be here to be in this arena will consider that every penny is well invested it has been absolutely tremendous Frampton has been knackered from will forearms and always kept throwing I don't know but this water goodness assist is almost is not human at the engine are the kids something else this time I think for a few critics and a few armchair critics to wake up to the fact that Josh Warrington is a little bit special good left hook there from from then and again and again with gavel as we move towards the last ten seconds of the fight still both men trying to wing everything at their opponent that what a great contest and surely a great great win for Josh Warrington that was a very special fight great respect between the two in the builder and look at what it means to the two of them they have shared in a little boxing epic and I sell fantastic for everyone and it went against the trend of what we thought was going to happen he didn't think one who's going to have such a fantastic start until we got up to a catcher below there and he was just tremendous Road and judo off Carl Frampton thing did she was wrong Don he Natalie good shot he timed his shots well he just got old hustle by a guy and tactically as well as sat at times it was not bamboozle says but just confused what was happening with the weight of the way Warren is approaching it lovely moment in their Ashura Hagan their father of Josh Warrington went across to car Frampton he's a big bear of a man and he gave him a great big bear hug it takes two to produce a fine fight and Shawn knows it Jamie Muro trainer of the year rightly so fantastic job last year Shawn will Hagen could have easily won in himself can me just be honest well between them Josh and Shawn have produced two absolutely astonishing performances maybe there are a few a few Irish diehards who are hoping still that Carl France and one this that I cannot believe it's the case just Warrington as he was at Elland Road here in Manchester has been just outstanding he has NVIDIA and osakan Steve Robinson earlier from the 90s and I just said one of them might just be one of those fighters but she's beating guys who he's not meant to beat just you could just keep producing the good and better and better and better and that's the case now he was just a little I believe he was he is unquestionably right up there with the best fighters in this country maybe he is the best I'm to be honest what they never see it again Franklin ever bought the bad fight he knows he Franklin did Franklin and the perform don't think that there's any excuse like that I just think you know he got on a hearse all the times and that the place is where he was meant to be comfortable which he wasn't even an enemy good shots one of them just took him and fired back and I think that shocks everyone well Barry eventually getting it on his car by a wide margin for Josh Warrington the pride of Leeds the two fighters are being drawn to centering with Steve gray the referee and Thomas Schreiber is waiting to give the results and here are some of the fantastic moments from that last round unquestionably Josh Warrington finished the stronger and they know that they were special tonight even they just she just seen a little thing when he was moving around the tiger they won't wanted to his right and it's very clever and you already see it is there's subtle things that you get credit for Carl Frampton an outstanding boxer he's come up against a younger man a fitter man maybe a stronger man and certainly in his own way and outstanding boxer as well we're assuming that Josh Warrington has won this and won it commandingly the referee is asking for the crowd to salute both men all around the Manchester Arena people are standing up and cheering it's been that sort of the night that sort of a fight and here now is Thomas driver [Applause] ladies and gentlemen after 12 rounds of boxing here at the Manchester Arena we go to the judges scorecards judge Michael Alexander scores it 116 to 113 and both judges Alex Levin and Matteo Montella sport the same 116 to 112 all in favor of your winner by unanimous decision [Applause] once again the jubilation is for leads and for Josh Warrington Kyle front and held him a lot to salute him himself and to say that he has been a great fighter but he now knows emphatically that Josh Warrington is also great and on the night was clearly by margins of four points on two cards three points on the third were big wins and emphatically for Josh Warrington we're going to hopefully get straight into the ring for

show us what the Top Sportsman is listen Carl Compton will go down is one of the best ever waves and super bantamweight champion czar is Ben there's just a lot of that shade of a move in the contest everybody thought or a lot of people who suggested you were going to go on the front foot but you were weary in the first round before launching a furious assault you did the same in the second what were the tactics that you and your father worked on and how are you able to implement them so effectively listen you didn't wither like co-champion uh yeah I'm giving Carlotta credit buddies deserves it and I kept going the age of thinking you know even though I've championed with a poem so you've got to be clever we would think you fight like cow I said prior though I've got many many different game plans what can bring to the table and there was chance when I seen you in an attack then I'm going to go off with it there were times when I hit him with some caulking shots and they took him in

I loved this fight. Warrington looked really impressive and Frampton is a personal fave fighter. They're also just two standup classy guys who are a good look for the sport in general which makes it all the better.

Great scrap. I think Carl was looking to counter but it looked like Josh knew this. He was willing to be patient and force Carl to come to him and then work him over in exchanges or when he covered up. Carl got clipped a few times early on (which he admitted to after the fight) and although he had some success later on I thought that set the tone.

Ahead of the fight I thought Framptons power on the counter would be the difference but Josh was the little bit cuter and his work rate was fantastic. Josh will be a handful for anyone at featherweight.

I don't know if anyone has noticed ( I haven't seen any announcements ) but Kid Galahad is pencilled in to fight Warrington in Leeds on May 4th.

​

In all honesty, I never really thought Warrington would go on to do what he's done. I thought out of the bunch he was the weakest and used to worry about his lack of power yet he's proved me wrong. I'd rip my nuts off if he went up a division and fought Quigg!

Kind of saw a bit of Hatton vs Tszyu. Upcoming hungry fighter smothering the experienced technician to see how much he has left in the tank.

Closer fight than people make out imo. Warrington's sheer overwhelming relentlessness was impressive but Frampton was landing some real nice, clean shots all night. Several rounds were very hard to score
