News about Carl Frampton

Carl Frampton has lauded Anthony Joshua for the brutal right-handed hook that knocked Francis Ngannou out on Friday night, and believes it may have scared heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk. It was the second time the former UFC heavyweight champion had stepped into a boxing match after launching Tyson Fury in October. However, he was defeated by the British fighter, who knocked him to the ground three times in the first two rounds before claiming the victory with a brutal punch.

Northern Ireland has consistently punched above their weight in global boxing, whether it's former featherweight world champion Barry McGuigan, former two-division world champion Carl Frampton, or multiple-time world championship champion Michael Conlan. When Padraig McCrory clashes with heavy-hitter Edgar Berlanga in Orlando this weekend, he will have a golden opportunity to add to the region's long list of elite fighters. Berlanga has firmly established himself as one of the best punchers in the super middleweight division, with the American winning his first 16 professional bouts by first-round defeat.

CONOR BREELEY AT THE VITALITY STADIUM: Conor Bradley of Liverpool looks at the truth. Coaches at Anfield adore him, while compatriot Carl Frampton has even used him in the same sentence as George Best. Bradley hasn't looked out of place in a team full of heavyweights over the past two weeks, in which he has started Liverpool's last two games against Fulham and this potentially difficult ride to Bournemouth.

LEWIS STEELE is a footballer who plays football, but there is a mural on a wall down Sybil Road, just across the street from Anfield, with a picture of Trent Alexander-Arnold wearing his now-iconic No 66 shirt. 'I'm just a normal lad from Liverpool whose aspirations have just come true.' It's an inspiration to many young children.

Hugh Russell, the Irish Boxing champion, died at the age of 63 after being sick for the first time. After beating Samit Khiniab, Emmanuel Mlundwa, Yo Ryon-Sik, Russell earned a bronze medal for Ireland during the 1980 Olympic games. That would be as far as he would go, although Bulgarian Petar Lesov defeated him, but he would still return to Ireland as a hero.

Hugh Russell, the 1980 Olympic Games' medalist in boxing, has died at the age of 63. The Irishman died as a result of a bout with cancer, but peers and close friends remember him fondly. Russell's crowning moment came at the 1980 Moscow Games, where he took bronze for Ireland after triumphs over Iraq's Samit Khiniab, Tanzania's Emmanuel Mlundwa, and North Korea's Yo Ryon-Sik.

After he knocked Oleksandr Usyk to the ground with a tumultuous punch during their blockbuster match, Carl Frampton has stated that 'Daniel Dubois should be unified heavyweight champion'. In the fifth round of their match, the British fighter struck a heavy blow that stunned the Ukrainian fighter. It was a struggle for his opponent's lower abdomen, causing Usyk to retaliate backwards, with him crashing into the ropes behind him.

Carl Frampton, the former world champion, wants to see Anthony Joshua 'get rid of Jermaine Franklin early on' and 'call out Tyson Fury from within the ring' on Saturday night. AJ will return to the ring on Saturday after losing to Oleksandr Usyk for the second time in August 2022, having previously lost his WBA, WBO, and IBF belts to Ukraine in September 2021. Froch, who hasn't won a fight since beating Kubrat Pulev in September 2020, hopes to see Joshua make a stand against the American heavyweight on Saturday.

Following a bizarre tweet from Domino's Pizza, Conor Benn has taken a shot at Domino's Pizza by claiming he prefers their Pizza Hut. Domino's first published a photo on their Twitter page depicting a regular pizza topped with many eggs before jokingly naming it the 'Conor Benn special'. The article was referring to the conclusion of his failed drug test, which caused the 11th-hour cancellation of his October match with Chris Eubank Jnr and sparked rumors of a cover-up after failing a test in July.

Since the sanctioning body controversially announced on Wednesday that his positive drug tests may have been caused by eating too many eggs, Conor Benn has been able to regain his position in the World Boxing Council rankings. The WBC has found that the first of his failed tests for clomiphene, obtained by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association in July, may have been the result of a diet in which Benn was likely eating up to 34 eggs a week. The WBC found there was no conclusive evidence that Mr Benn knowingly or knowing ingestion of clomiphene, but they did not reveal that contamination was not the primary target of his defense, which favoured attacking VADA's testing procedures.'

Conor Benn was one of the most popular boxing products just 23 days ago. 21 victories in as many fights, an almost unbeaten rate of growth, the charisma to match, and a true testament fight are just three days away. How quickly things can change. Chris Eubank Jr.'s pending fight against him, 30 years after their legendary fathers went toe-to-toe, was thrown out, but not without a fight. His image, on the other hand, was shattered quicker than an accidentless Samuel Vargas when an electric Benn blasted him out in fewer than a round last year. The source, as we all know, was MailOnline's bombshell revelation that Benn tested positive for banned substance clomifene, a women's fertility treatment that is listed under hormone and metabolic regulators and can raise testosterone in males.

This is the sweetest moment young royal fans in Belfast could not contain their ecstatic excitement after shaking hands with the Queen Consort. On the new leg of their tour of the United Kingdom, schoolchildren gathered to welcome Camilla and King Charles. Although there was a lot of anticipation in the crowd, two of them seemed particularly delighted at the prospect of meeting the Queen Consort. Following the royal meeting, the schoolchildren were captured holding their hands and yelling with glee.
