SKY SPORTS 1 HD - REES v CROLLA Saturday Night Fight Chat

[armin]

big start and finish for crolla in round 9 sounds like the last three will decide the winner for most except for commentators who sound like they got crolla inked in as the winner already

I'm wondering if it's just me because I'm a Rees fan. I've got them swapping rounds since halfway, with everything on the laatr two rounds.

nope not just you the commentators drank the cool aid the first minute of round 11 crolla literally had landed nothing, they called him the boss, he did take the round eventually but when they said nothing had landed

[armin]

Rees 7-5, or a draw im not sure what fucking fight the commentators are watching where crolla apparently teared rees a new asshole. Punches landed on gloves are better than no punches thrown, which crolla did a lot of...

[Tam Seddon]

I thought Crolla did enough to win that one. It was a decent fight though. I could see Crolla fighting Burns but I still think Derry Matthews should have another fight with him if he gets through his next fight.

how did you all score the fight??, i have collected 2 scores from this thread but are looking for more so i can add them to my fightscorecollector site

Quigg absolutely mullers Frampton. He just keeps improving. I have always rated him and closely followed his career, but even I am surprised at his ability to keep that sharp on 7 months of sparring. Smith Dodson was a great scrap and Crolla got Rees on the way down the hill. Don't think Anthony goes any further though to be honest. Burns would tee off on him all night if he cant take it up a gear.

Its too hard to know. I believe Frampton hits harder then Quigg and I dont think Quigg has a great chin. Quigg is probably faster and has better shot selections.

Quigg has had 10 fights more then Frampton so I fully expect Frampton to be ahead of where Quigg is now after he has 26 fights.

The super bantomweight division in Britain is awesome at the minute with Frampton, Quigg and Galahad all looking class. Also expect Kal Yafai to come into the division at some stage as well as Jaime Mc Donnell.

I still think Frampton has more strings to his bow and can adapt his style to suit his opponent. He also hits harder than Quigg and I'm not particularly convinced by Quigg's chin. Frampton is a more complete fighter and that will tell if and when they meet. I'd go for Frampton by KO.

Agree about Crolla. He got a flattering result last night and has already lost to some distinctly ordinary fighters. Burns would easily beat him.

Frampton is in no way a more complete fighter than Quigg. He has holes in his defense and thinks he is much better than he actually is.

Who has Quigg actually beaten? Last night he beat a fat bloke no one has ever heard of and his best win was against a shot Rendell Monroe.

The exact same thing can be said about Carl. Can easily argue Kiki was shot and Molitor was certainly shot. His next fight is against a fighter just as bad as Quiggs opponent last night.

Im completely on the fence who is better.

[Beanz]

Monroe wasn't shot when Quigg beat him.

[Silkeyjoe]

Monroe wasn't shot when Quigg beat him.

But he certainly wasnt as good as he was 3 years previous.

Maybe not but he came back after the Quigg defeat and won by KO. I am not saying Frampton may not end up being world class, I just think that Quigg is further along on that journey and seems much hungrier to learn. Better all round but that is just my opinion.
