CARL FRAMPTON IS NO STRANGER TO TOUGH SCRAPS

Double world champion Carl Frampton is already training at full tilt, to face Mexican Andrés “Jaguar” Gutiérrez on July 29, in a World Boxing Council featherweight elimination match.

The pride of Belfast, Northern Ireland,  where the fight between the “Jackal” (23-1, 14 KO’s) and the Jaguar (35-1-1, 25 KO’s) will be held, is aware  that for the moment he does not think about an eventual third fight with Leo Santa Cruz. For now, he`s only thinking  about “Jaguarcito,”  who he spotted as a testing opponent, and who`s notched up more fights than him.

“It will be a very difficult fight, but I do not like easy fights. I just can`t  wait to be inside the ring. I demanded a tough fight because I did not want to be in the ring with a stranger, and Gutiérrez is among the best fighters in the world.”

Frampton will return to fight in his country after more than two years when he defeated to Chris Avalos in  the Belfast Arena, where he will face Gutierrez.
