He responded to dominate almost the entirety of the rest of the fight and claim a unanimous victory that was solid but not nearly the spectacular performance he had been looking for.

“I was in shock,” admitted Frampton afterwards. “I came out slow. I need to give Gonzalez Jr so much credit, he doesn’t look like a big puncher but man he can punch.

“It was exciting but it wasn’t the performance I wanted. I don’t want to make excuses but I took too much weight off in the last few days. It’s a big decision whether to stay at this weight or go to featherweight – I don’t know.”

The Northern Irishman knocked his opponent’s head back with a flurry of jabs in the final round and his first victory on American turf was soon confirmed by the judges’ scorecards.
