Carl Frampton is man who has first hand experience of sharing the ring with Josh Warrington. ‘The Leeds Warrior’ defeated Frampton in their world title bout back in December 2018, but the Northern Irishman still gives the slight edge to the Nottingham man, Leigh Wood.
In a recent interview with Boxing News, ‘The Jackal’ insists he is finding it hard to pick a winner, but feels that the reigning champion is the slightly fresher fighter of the two and is edging towards a win for the Nottingham man:
“I think that it’s a really good fight. I like both guys, I really do. It’ll be really competitive but if I had to pick a winner I’d probably pick Leigh Wood. I think he’s probably just slightly fresher than Josh [Warrington],” Frampton revealed in a pre-fight interview with Boxing News.
