Quigg v Frampton - looks set for 2014... Anybody changed their mind on this one ??
Hearn's made a huge offer apparently..........Mcguigan is very interested.........Both sides no doubt thinks they can win......
One becomes a star..........Looks all set for next year.......
Still fancy Quigg who to me is huge at the weight......But it's close to pickem........

Frampton for me, feel he holds the most power and is more crisp of punch. Great fight though.

I believe Frampton said he would take the fight if the contract conditions didn't stick in a load of add ons.

What was quigg doing last time out.......Basically gave four rounds away and you just can't bank on winning the next 8......
Bad tactics..He should have beat the guy...

Was he REALLY giving away the first 4 rounds or did he just take an eternity to figure out that Cuban's jab. If I recall Quigg was throwing and couldn't hit the guy. Then as soon as the jab faded then the guy was exposed as not having anything else too offer.
But as the Sky commentators told us a million times...."he is a slick world class Cuban"

I fancy Frampton to win this in 8 but despite that I think he would be best putting this off for another year.
Go for the winner of Martinez v Mathebula... Pick up a title and an extra bargaining chip. The biggest downside is I don't really think there is anywhere in Northern Ireland big enough to host Quigg v Frampton so either way will probably be in England.

I am most assuredly not Irish but still think I like Frampton in this one. Quigg always looks a little vulnerable to me. Rate him higher than most on here but just think Frampton has a more rounded look about him currently. Cracking fight if it happens though.

Frampton wins this one for me, he can box on the front and back foot something which Quigg can't do imo.

I'm surprised.........Quigg seems to be under appreciated on here.......
Interesting.........I'm the only one going Quigg.....
Though only 55-45....
no wonder mcguigan is interested.

Nothing to do with nationality really as I personality can't stand most Irish boxers. The ones over here nearly break down if you tell it how it is.
A couple of weeks ago on Irishboxingwebsite's Facebook page they wrote something about Martin Rogan and Paul McCloskey coming back to fight (not eachother obviously) and I mentioned the point that both of them are garbage and will be lucky to to win another fight let alone a belt.
The abuse my brethren threw at me was disgusting!!! But hey, most of them were probably drunk (wee Irish steriotype in there just for Truss).
Any way, like the other (non Irish) members have pointed out, Frampton just looks more skilled that Quigg, far more relaxed in the ring and has many weapons in his arsenal. Whereas the last time Quigg attempted to show us another side to his game he ended up on his face....and that shot did hurt him and he stayed down for as long as he could in order to clear his head.
Personally I would have loved to see Quigg vs Martinez. Good match ups of styles that would have been and it would have been a good measuring stick to see how Quigg handles knock out punchers who throw serious pressure at their opponents. Frampton proved his worth in that fight. I would have liked to see Quigg tested too against Kiko.

I like Quigg, but Frampton is in a different league i think he will end up as one of best fighters the UK has produced in many a year. I can see him stopping Quigg in about 8 rounds of a very good scrap.

Only reason Quigg would fight Frampton would be so he can dodge Rigondeaux a little longer....

No need for that is there Gerry boy ??
Quigg seems to be a bit unpopular and I don't know why ??
Had him beating the Cuban 7-5..........and he seems a nice lad..

But there is no reason to believe quigg would avoid anybody........
He looks like he'd welcome opportunities.

Quigg being World Champion is just toss. Didn't win the title in the ring, defended it with a draw, Rigo is the champ anyway. That said, he's a good fighter, not sure I can split them.

I agree...........Being given a title and then drawing is an inauspicious start.

Unfortunately yes I have. Theres something about Frampton I don't like. Not even sure what it is. But having seen them both progress the past year it seems pretty clear to me that Frampton is now the much better fighter

Frampton for me seems to be a fighter who looks like his improving with every fight, I fancy him to beat Quigg, Frampton might be something special.

There's something about Frampton's attitude to the game that reminds of Hatton in his early days. He looks to get the job done and wants to impress. I think he has as much ability and potential as Ricky and it will be interesting to see whether he has a similar career. (Fringe world class and falls short against the very best)
The plus point thus far is that he looks to be taking on his main rival unlike the Hatton/Witter saga.
