Frampton v Quigg - Fight Night

First topic message reminder :

Amazed there is no dedicated thread for this fight!

Where is everyone watching it? Im at home, beer at the moment then onto the vino with a curry on standby.

Who have you got to win? Always thought Frampton would win this but have seen a calmness in Quigg this week that exudes extreme confidence. Frampton on the other hand has seemed tetchy at the press conference and weigh-in and seems to have used up too much energy in trying to get under Team Quiggs skin.

For what he gets paid I'm sure he'll get over it reasonably quickly.

Disappointing rumble from the buffer... Don't think he can hold the note any more.

10-10

Wow explosive start

2-0 Frampton. Quigg just running away

......

bores.

20-19 Frampton

Agree 20 19. If the pace is low Frampton wins.

2-0 Frampton purely because he's throwing and quigg isn't

Surprised Quigg isn't trying his jab, he's taller, longer reach and is left handed naturally

Quigg doesn't want to get countered but he needs to still win the fight

30-28 Frampfon

Quigg doing an Audrey impression

3 0 zzzzz

3-0 Frampo

Quigg needs to do something, Carl won't slow down if he's not taking any shots

Maybe he knows he can't beat Frampton on points so is just waiting for one chance to land a bomb

Wish the ref would stop jumping about and get out of the effing way

Have you read Dick Francis' 'Enquiry'? I've always imagined buffer to be the villain from that book haha. Just the expression on his face ...stoically masked contempt for all and sundry.

4 0

This has been disappointing. Frampton winning by default.

40-37, Quigg looks awful

4-0 Frampo

I might watch Skelton sprott after this to give me some excitement.

My this is dull... Both wanting to counter, too scared to throw

Save yourself some time jermaine, we get it.

Quigg really doesn't have much but volume and stamina and he's doing his best to not use it.

Is this gonna go twelve rounds? Seems like one of them cagey fights

Quigg has been touched by the 'woman with the trembling hands' the witch doctor formerly known as Rowley.

4-0...

What is Quigg doing ??...Outclassed so far

5 0 BORING

50-46, can't see Quigg turning this around

5-0 Frampton

Scoring the first round anything but a draw is embarrassing.

Agreed Scott

I thought these two didn't like each other? Couldn't tell by watching this fight

50/46. 1st round a draw and Frampton winning next 4. Quigg throwing very little and Frampton just doing enough in every round. #unofficialpedroscorecard

Maybe there is a new found respect

Stinker....5-0..

Nothing much between them, Sky commentary awful.

Dunno about that dipper. They're avoiding each other like the plague.

I really hope this catches fire as the commentators keep saying. Only way this will catch fire by the looks of it is a box of matches and some petrol

6-0 Frampton

Outclassed completely

Framptons feet too fast

6 0 awful fight Quigg done absolutely nothing

6-0..

Frampton looking increasingly confident....Quigg looking increasingly gunshy - reminds me of a pint sized Wlad Klit

Pi$$ poor fight

milkyboy wrote:Quigg looks the more relaxed... If that actually matters

Maybe too relaxed

Truss is pretending to watch.

60-55

Racist

Cant really see how the commentator are 'awful'

What they supposed to say if nothing is happening, they've said it's been a poor fight

How????? It was just a fire related pun

When Rigondeaux fights like this he gets slaughtered by all and sundry...

60/55 at midway stage. Frampton better boxer. Quigg can't find the range and can't let anything go.

What rubbish, sending me to sleep

If hagler and hearns were dead, they'd be turning in their graves.

If they're watching this a little bit of them will be dying anyway
