🥊FNF‼️ Carl Frampton vs Scott Quigg | FULL FIGHT | WBA/IBF Super-Bantamweight Boxing | 27/2/2016
On 27 October 2015, the long-awaited fight between Frampton and undefeated WBA (Regular) super-bantamweight champion Scott Quigg (31–0–2, 23 KOs) was being discussed according to both sides. The bout would be the biggest British fight since Froch vs. Groves in 2014.
According to multiple sources a few days later, a deal was finalised and a date in early 2016 was talked about. Although the promoters said the fight was a super-bantamweight unification, it was not officially sanctioned as one. This was due to Quigg holding the WBA (regular) title. Cuban boxer Guillermo Rigondeaux (16–0, 10 KOs) was officially recognised as the (super) champion by the WBA. It was believed that Frampton aligning with boxing manager and advisor Al Haymon may have helped get the deal across the line, due to the close relationship between him and Quigg’s promoter Eddie Hearn. The fight was discussed at the start on 2015. Quigg not accepting 60–40 in Frampton’s favour was one of the reasons it did not happen. Hearn’s response to this was the winner would take 60%. Barry McGuigan felt this was unfair to the fighters. He also claimed Quigg had never headlined a fight, whereas Frampton had sold out 16,000 arena shows in Belfast. Frampton was offered a £1.5 million take it or leave it.
On 2 November, the fight was officially announced to take place at the Phones4U Arena in Manchester on 27 February 2016, billed for the IBF and WBA super-bantamweight titles, on Sky Sports Box-Office. Both boxers spoke excitedly about the fight. Frampton discredited Quigg’s title, saying only his IBF belt was at stake. Frampton said, “I’m delighted that we have finally got this fight signed. I’m the legitimate champion and I’m going to his backyard to defend my title because that’s what champions do. Fans will find out who the real champion is, I’m going to win this fight in style.”
Frampton believed Quigg finally took the fight on the back of his own fight, where he was dropped in round one against Alejandro Gonzalez Jr. but won the fight via decision. Frampton called it a blessing in disguise. Frampton said he had been calling for a fight against Quigg since he was British champion four years ago. The IBF formally sanctioned the bout as a unification only on the condition that the winner of the bout would have 90 days to agree a deal with mandatory challenger, Japanese boxer Shingo Wake. On the other hand, the WBA Championships Committee announced Rigondeaux as ‘champion in recess’, due to his managerial and promotional issues and not having a fight scheduled.
Frampton and Quigg both weighed in at the arena in front of 3,000 fans on the Friday. Frampton had support from the traveling Irish fans, who made their presence known. Quigg weighed 121.6 pounds and Frampton weighed 121.7 pounds. There was a tense stare down during the face-off with neither fighter breaking eye-contact which last around the minute mark. It was eventually by Frampton who blew Quigg a kiss, then turned to face the crowd. Joe Gallagher and Shane McGuigan, the trainers of Quigg and Frampton, respectively, also had a stare down and small tussle at the weigh in. Later that day, it came to light that Frampton made a request for the Sky Sports broadcast team to not include an individual. No names were mentioned, however Frampton made it known in the past, person in question had been critical of them. The bookmakers had Frampton as a slight favourite going into the fight. There was still tension heading into fight night due to both boxers wanting the bigger dressing room. Quigg believed he should have the bigger room due to being the home fighter and Frampton fought his case due to being the bigger draw in the fight. There was reports to suggest Frampton could pull out of the fight. Quigg said it wasn’t an issue for him and that he’d get dressed at his house in Bury if it meant the fight would still take place. Eddie Hearn also said that they had to agree to multiple demands from team Frampton in order to get the fight over the line from having Frampton’s name on the left side of the poster, to having American judges and entering the ring second.

👑 Fury DETHRONES Klitschko in Germany 🇩🇪 | 🥊The Throwback📺 | #TysonFury #FuryMakhmudov #Boxing
👑 Fury DETHRONES Klitschko in Germany 🇩🇪 | 🥊 The Throwback 📺 |
The ‘Gypsy King’ returns this Saturday night in search of more titles when he takes on Russian giant, Arslan Makhmudov, at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium.
The night he won his world titles though was the most important result in the modern-history of the heavyweight division.
The Klitschko reign was one of boredom as well as dominace. With the pair being superior than the generation they were a part of the Ukrainians fights rarely offered anything other than complete shutouts.
Wladimir, in particular, had been transformed by Manny Steward into a top defensive fighter who through the ease at which he defended his titles turned into a risk-free jab and grab boxer who the legendary trainer became, at times, frustrated by.
And when the unbeaten traveller ventured over to Germany hardly anyone gave him a chance but he dethroned the champion who had reigned for nine-long years atop the heavyweight division.
Fury’s win – and subsequent retirement – opened up the heavyweight scene enabling the likes of Anthony Joshua and Joseph Parker to grab titles & even up the playing-field.

🥊The LAST TIME we saw the Bronze Bomber💣 #DeontayWilder #KO #Knockout #ChisoraWilder #Throwback
There’s not been many occasions where Deontay Wilder goes into a fight as an underdog and there probably hasn’t been a moment – pre-2025 – where he would be heralded as such against Derek Chisora.
But on Saturday night he will be that underdog when both fighters make their 50th ringwalks at the O2 Arena in London. Potentially for the last time.
If we’re being honest, the ‘Bronze Bomber’ hasn’t looked anywhere near his former WBC champion-self since, arguably, Robert Helenius; a man he blew out within a round, over three and a half years ago.
Heavy defeats to Joseph Parker and Zhelei Zhang have followed – the latter a severe beating before being stopped in the 5th – and a seriously undewhelming win over little-known Tyrell Herndon where his famous right-hand seemed to have deserted him.
And ff the Helenius knockout is the last time he unleashed that bomb of a right-hand then he can be incredibly proud of a long-reign as champ and to having been involved in one of the most iconic trilogies in boxing history.

🔥 George Foreman vs Ken Norton | FULL FIGHT | WBA/WBC/RING Heavyweight Boxing | 26/3/1974
George Foreman 39–0 (36 KO) vs. Ken Norton 30–2 (23 KO) was a professional boxing match contested on March 26, 1974, for the undisputed heavyweight championship.
Undefeated heavyweight champion George Foreman had little trouble in his two fights the previous year. First he captured the WBA and WBC heavyweight titles after dominating Joe Frazier, scoring six knockdowns in less than two rounds in an easy technical knockout victory in January 1973. Foreman would follow this by making his first defense against José Roman in Tokyo in September of that year, easily winning the bout by first-round knockout. For his second defense, Foreman was matched up against Ken Norton for a March 1974 bout held in Caracas, the capital and largest city in Venezuela. Ken Norton was coming off two successive fights against Muhammad Ali in 1973, winning the first fight in March by split decision (famously breaking Ali’s jaw in the process), and then narrowly losing the second by another split decision in September. Norton’s impressive performances against Ali made him one of the top heavyweight contenders for Foreman’s titles, but the future hall-of-famer was installed as a 3–1 underdog against the hard-hitting champion and given little chance of obtaining a victory. A week before the fight had happened, promoter Don King, banking on a victory by Foreman, had already signed a deal that would see Foreman make his next defense against Ali in the “Rumble in the Jungle.”
A 3 to 1 underdog, Norton was back in a familiar position, promised less money than Foreman ($200,000 to the $500,000 George was guaranteed), and deemed a solid underdog to the hard-slugging Texan. If Caracas seems like a strange destination to hold a heavyweight boxing event, there was a practical reason it was sought out as the host: an agreement had been reached stipulating all taxes would be waived.
Don King produced the initial guarantee, a $10million letter of credit from Carl Lombardo, a 34‐year‐old Cleveland construction millionaire. King earlier had persuaded Lombardo to put up $400,000 for the Foreman‐Norton bout here.
