[Boxing] Jamel Herring vs Carl Frampton WBO Super-featherweight Title

[Questat]

Middle East has now become a venue for boxing, I guess soon there will be more popular fights that will be held. I read some news regarding the possible Pacquioa vs Crawford fight, it says that the possible venue is in Abu Dhabi, so it's really great to know promoters finding a great venue to help the sports survive and continue to collect revenue.

About this fight, I guess I'll go for Jamel Herring.

Considering the low knockout percentage of Jamel Herring I did not expect the fight to end in such a manner. The size difference ended up being too much to overcome for Frampton. All the wars and injuries have really affected him and he is not really the fighter we used to know.

For Herring, a unification fight against Oscar Valdez would be a great opportunity and since they have the same promoter it should be easy to make.

Date: April 3
Venue: Dubai

These fighters are less popular in the junior light weight division but they also deserve a discussion here. I think the winner of this fight is on a collision course with Oscar Valdez, who recently won the WBC title recently.

What made this fight interesting for me is the almost even betting odds. Bookies are having a hard time predicting a winner so this is a good thing for us, fight fans.

Current betting odds: Jamel Herring 1.93   Carl Framton 1.78

Your thoughts on this one.

I would bet for James, because I see a great potential on him to bet Carl. Based on the record he had, though he's not yet that popular for now I believed and trusted his ability to make it. Hopefully other too could choose him for their bets in boxing sports, because this guy would bring us more victory with future matches on his fights.

What a fight, a very good performance by Herring, I thought it's going to be close, by Herring did have a good game plan here, stopping the Irish in 6th rounds. And we can say that Herring as the champion is the better man here. We thought that it will be close base on Frampton's experience, but it is not. Now he is mandated by the IBF to commit to a 30 day mandatory title defense, so let's see how is next.

I thought the upper cut was not solid, but Frampton was hit and he was down, that's a big win by Herring, the underdog of the fight. I was just watching the highlights as I missed the live game, I don't even know how to watch it so I'm just glad we have some uploaders in YT which are really to upload the highlight of the game right after the fight.

Herring really played smart from the first round, he uses his long job and hit Frampton with straight. I guess it took a toll on Frampton and I will say that his age, and wear and tear showed in this fight. Herring looks very fresh, not sure if Shakur Stevenson will be the mandatory. Frampton then said that he is going to retire now after this lost.

As I have predicted, Herring will win this one, but I never thought to end it like this way. Frampton is really outclass and Herring has strategy for both inside and outside fight. His corner is shouting bully him when they are inside and then he uses his reach. And Frampton can't really adjust to his length and when Frampton goes inside, he is met with straight left. And then he has to lunge just to get his shot, but it's very dangerous. ML for Herring is very attractive if you have bet early on this fight.

If they happened to show a good fight that day, then their name will be known after that considering they are on some of the big stages in the boxing industry. Usually in this division are Mexicans and Filipino and now they are now getting their name in that division fighting for that title. If they came up with the fight of the year with a great match in the ring, I think they deserve some fight in Vegas if they gathered enough fans with their upcoming fight.

I never though that the fight would end that way considering that both were not in their prime anymore and also both have low KO percentage but kudos to Herring for winning this 50/50 fight.

Bonus for this card is that the Philippine's record holder for the longest defense of a title Donnie "Ahas" Nietes won over Carrillo on a masterful performance even with that more than two years layoff.

Yes, as for the betting public, it started to be a 50/50 fight, then Herring become the favorite and now we see the reason why. The low percentage was the give away, but it seems Frampton chin has been crack already and now it is evident in this fight. Herring's left really do the damage on Frampton's eye and I would say that Frampton is not really in this fight.

Congrats to Nietes, he could chase Estrada or Chocolatito for a big paycheck before he retires.

i should have put more on this match as i placed bet on herring. lol but anyway the almost 50/50 odds by bookies >> it means bookies really have no clue that herring will dominate this one. anyway, lets see who's gonna be the next opponent of herring. it will be very soon so he is just fresh from training. would not be hard for him to undergo another training.

As what i have said in my previous post, what makes this fight interesting is that there is no sure favorite to win the fight and it reflects on the betting odds, bookies even put Herring the slight the underdog on this one.

About his next opponent, Herring wants a unification fight with Oscar Valdez but i don't think he can beat the latter. If i were him, i'll go first with the mandatory defense then the unification fight with Oscar and if he loses, retirement might be a good thing for him.

I agree with that, Oscar Valdez is younger and undefeated, maybe this is the time we will see that Jamel Herring will be a real underdog. The last fight of
Oscar Valdez againts Miguel Berchelt was very impressive, IIRC, he was the underdog of the fight and he was able to KO his opponent in that fight.

I even think that Miguel Berchelt is way better than Jamel Herring, so for me it's just an easy job for Oscar Valdez to beat Jamel Herring if the fight will happen.

Oh so Herring is looking for Oscar Valdez as his next fight? It will be a different outcome, as Valdez is very young, had a good trainer in Reynoso, power in both hands. Maybe what Herring is looking is a bigger paycheck before he retires, make sense.

And if ever he losses, I think he will also call it a career, he is in his mid-30's already, accomplished boxer, world champion. Let's hope that his fight can happen, reunification for Oscar Valdez as this kid has a bright future.

Even after Herring won this fight, he remained grounded. His tweet says it all. And read also his pinned tweet, he had a lot of struggles in his life. Good for him that he found boxing as therapeutic. At least he has something to look forward to. More fights for him in the future.

That is the only way to keep your success, stay humble and let your performance make the noise. A lot of people find refuge in a lot of Martial Arts and Herring is not so different to other people. I would love to see more fight from this guy because he seems to be a good fighter, maybe with Valdez we can see something that will push Herring to the limits.

Not sure how long Herring can keep fighting though, he is like 34 or 35 in this fight. So most likely just a couple of fights in him. But I do agree that this guy is humble that's why we haven't heard from him even though he is the reigning champion is this fight.

Probably it steam from being a United States Marine, which we all know train their recruits to be confident but humble as well. It's interesting to note though that Herring contacted the corona virus last year.

I don't think he showed any symptoms though. It is a different case compared to Povetkin and Berchelt who didn't look very good and lost by knockout when they came back after they got the coronavirus.

Look at Pacquiao though, he is over 50 and there are still upcoming fights and challengers waiting for him, I think that Herring will be able to pull it off and you also said that he is a USMC which means Herring is tougher than he looks. We just have to hope for the best.
