Frampton v Quigg - February 27th 2016 Manchester Arena

[smashup]

The Mcguigans are building a decent little crew and I lile Shanes training style.
Still think Quigg wins this early by KO though.
I think he'll come out like a windmill and smash Frampton to pieces.

This is a bit dull because it's obvious both fighters have the utmost respect for each other.

Frampton alluded to something here which I believe is the biggest factor in the fight. Quigg can't fight going backwards, Frampton is equally effective going either way.

All the best seats have gone ! I like both fighters I may sit on the fence.

[Fenster]

Quigg is making me lean back towards him with his man possessed attitude. That type of stuff doesn't normally sway me in the slightest - cold hard form/styles - but Quigg really does love being a fighter and seems unflappable.

I want quigg to win as he is a local , however it's hard to call, I don't like frampton but he won't lose without a scrap.

[Primo Carnera]

I'm in rant mode at the minute. Back to McGuigan being a Wanker, did anybody see the press conference where he described a bloke that floored Quigg earlier in his career as a "Moron Journeyman"? Quigg shouted over that McGuigan should show some respect. Good on Quigg.
Says everything you need to know about "King Baz!"

Ive met Barry McGuigan a couple of times, and you'll never meet a nicer, more modest or unaffected guy.

It's strange how he is behaving in this build up.

I also wonder how much of that is rubbing off on Frampton, who will look at Barry for his cues. Frampton has never been in a fight this big, against an opponent he is not an overwhelming favourite to beat.

Ever since he was an amateur, and was fast tracked as a golden boy, he has been seen as a star. Maybe he has got a bit arrogant, and he seems to be reacting with barely hidden fury at the Quigg camp's jibes.

He keeps calling his opponents 'arrogant'. He has done this so many times that I'm reminded of the old adage; when someone insults you, listen carefully because they will be describing the thing they fear most.

Barry has came across as a tosser ever since this Quigg-Frampton rivalry really flared up. For an intelligent bloke he sure does have a short fuse. The "moron journeyman" outburst was embarrassing. Have a pop at team Quigg but leave the fighters out of it.

It's obvious he hates playing second fiddle to Matchroom even though it's meant to be joint promotion.

Yeah, all promoters have their critics, it's the nature of the job and Hearn is definitely in that category.
But when he said "you're here because we brought you here!" they hated it because he put them in their place big time.
