The Winner and Why

Another extraordinary night is expected in Belfast‘s Odyssey Arena, as the buzz of anticipation has already reached fever pitch on the iconic fight city.

As for the winner though, sadly, there can be only one man. As good as Chris Avalos may be, Carl Frampton has the boxing world at his feet at the moment and is arguably the most exciting Super Bantamweight in the world. So for that reason, a Frampton victory, late on or points victory is almost a mere formality to many.

That being said, after witnessing several of Avalos’ previous outings as a pro, the American slugger will be supremely motivated for the bout, which will unquestionably spark a career best performance. That is almost certain to have the reigning IBF champion’s hands full for however long the tussle lasts.

Regrettably though, for the enthusiastic Hitman, sometimes a fighter is simply up against an immovable object, which could even demonstrate that, the world is simply not even enough to prevail. And for Avalos, that unbeatable obstacle comes in the shape of an ever-growing Jackal and his band of loyal supporters.
