    Frampton is on the back foot, but he’s coming back into it. Just as I say that he goes down.

    United we stand here....

    This is hard to watch. Herring beating up the ghost of Frampton here.

    Edit. Towel in. Hopefully he follows up with his promise to retire. The writing was on the wall after the Warrington fight.

    That's a sad end to a great career, his punch resistance is gone

    The towel comes in at the right time. Sometimes boxers need to be protected from themselves. Frampton has been a brilliant boxer, but it’s time to knock it on the head.

    I know why he left but he's not been the same fighter since he joined Jamie Moore for me, age and a hard career have caught up as well

    Couple of interesting fights on Saturday’s Matchroom card. Kash Farooq will be out to impress and grab some attention back from McGregor and Benn fights are rarely dull.

    I’m bored of the whole thing, they’re in danger of losing the mass interest.

    Big fight for Farooq here. Apart from that one loss he’s looked the real deal.

    I still think he snuck that one by a round or so from memory, would be a different fight now McGregor is living the life

    I remember it being close, but McGregor was the Edinburgh fighter so justice clearly prevailed

    It was. Farooq boxed well there against a tough opponent.

    Been an interesting fight between Courtenay & Bridges. A lot of pre fight talk due to Bridges attire at weigh ins but she’s been impressive. Not as technical as Courtenay but wants to walk forward and is strong.

    Great fight to watch, but they are ranked 8 & 9 with the WBA and its for the title, that's the kinda **** that annoys me about boxing at times

    Two judges scoring it 98-92 was a bit off, it's becoming habit

    The Aussie was never gonna be allowed to beat the Brit in her back yard on points.

    I'm biased as I find Shannon Courtaney really unlikable, I hate the forced inspirational story etc

    This should be a good fight. Vargas has been in with some good fighters, but I like Benn.

    I thought so as well, it’s the first round, give the guy a chance to recover. I understand it when a fighter is taking a beating, but that was premature.

    Love the Benn interviews, the guy has got that desire and ability to back it up. Future superstar of British boxing.

    I like Benn, he's hard not to like but I'm still unsure how good he is or can be, Khan has a glass jaw so have no interest in that, I'd like to see him fight Avenesyan that beat Josh Kelly for the European then I'd have a better take on where he's at

    I can’t see Khan or Brook getting into the ring with Benn, Khan is a bit of a publicity man and to be fair to him he’s never backed down or dodged a fight in his life, but it would be madness for him to take that fight.

    Eddie Hearn seems keen on that fight.
