Reports are this one finally came alive in the 10th, but I’d tuned out long before. The exact opposite — penny-pinching caution — of what I want from boxing.
Boring until the 10th indeed, but then… my my… the 10th and 11th were really great entertainment, thanks to Quigg’s effort to finally take some real risk and press the action.
If there’s a rematch, I hope they will start where they finished… because I wouldn’t stand watching 9 painfully boring rounds between these two again.
I had it 116-113 Frampton and I don’t know what one judge was looking at.
Fraking great if you think about having a broken jaw.
Having had one. It’s a PITA.
Also Furrys respone about it being boring.
Guess he just hates himself that much more.
