Laura Woods took to Instagram to show fans a clip of her Carl Frampton ‘bashing’ with a hilarious height comparison.
The former talkSPORT presenter was in front of the cameras for TNT Sports on Saturday night for Zhilei Zhang’s win over Joe Joyce.
As part of their coverage, they filmed a pre-fight feature that involved Frampton interviewing Joyce.
One camera angle from the piece shows the true difference in size between the two, something that Woods was quick to tease.
Speaking on air and posting the clip to her Instagram, she said: “Listen it was a great feature but I feel like we must highlight one thing, a little bit of size difference in that.
“I think it was the camera angles, just like the one in the studio right now, not doing anyone any favours really. You look like a toddler, what are they doing to you?”
Frampton was all smiles and laughs despite the joke coming at his expense, responding: “In my head I’m bigger than what I am, but clearly I’m not.
“I feel like, you know the Little Britain sketch, ‘Sing the theme tune, write the theme tune.'”
Woods then reiterated: “I just think he’s that big he makes everyone look small. Don’t take it seriously, it’s absolutely fine.”
She jokingly captioned the post as ‘Saturday at the boxing and a bit of @theframpton bashing x’.
A still from the camera was also attached, with Frampton’s feet barely touching the ground when sitting at the side of the ring.
Joyce, a heavyweight boxer, stands at 6ft 6ins, whereas the former super-bantamweight and featherweight Frampton is 5ft 5ins.
Joyce was unable to claim his revenge on Zhang as he fell to a third round knockout against the Chinese heavyweight.
