Frampton v Quigg - February 27th 2016 Manchester Arena

[Vendettos]

Notice Hearn didn't do an interview loool

Fat wanker

My Mom has a bit of thing for Eddie Hearn, a bit random I know. She's now a big Joshua fan only because she gets to see Hearn on the TV all time.

Your mum has a thing for tall aggressive guys lol

Hope your dad isnt self conscious!!

Quigg did very little at the start.

I know, that's why I gave 4 out of the first 6 rounds to Frampton. But even though Quigg was not doing much. I don't like to give a round to the other fighter by default. I prefer to give it to the fighter who (to me) win's the round outright. So I don't think Frampton was winning the rounds clearly. Not that I think it was bad decision but I had Quigg wining the fight.

I'm not gonna deny, I had Quigg shading it as well. I know most people see it different, but I agree with @denilson200 about fighters being given rounds when they haven't actually gone and won the round.
Yes, you could say Frampton was in control early on , but he didn't actually land with much, more than Quigg but enough to win the rounds outright?

[IamInuit]

The right guy won. I'm still puzzled on the laid back approach Quigg took over the first half.

His trainer said he thought Quigg was winning the early rounds. He must be blind.

His trainer waited until the 8th to tell him he was behind 6-1 and then after the fight said he had it 2-all after 4.

The first four rounds were a toss up but Frampton probably won them on effective aggression alone by trying to fight. Was there even 20 punches thrown over the first 4? More like 10 and Carl threw 8 of them.

I suppose the case could be made that it was an 8 or 7 round fight if you called the first 4 or 5 a draw.

Their strategy over the first 6 rounds was not fit for a unification fight of this magnitude. I was expecting a foty candidate. Terrible game plan.

Now they they've finally robbed their faithful fans hopefully one of them will step up to the champ.

[denilson200]

Gotta feel sorry for Guillermo Rigondeaux. He must look at these big pay days others are getting, the big fights others are getting and then think 'I'm the best fighter in the division but why am I fighting for chump change against a no name fighter Jazza Dickens"

Even after this, even after the winner of Carl Frampton and Scott Quigg’s clash must face him or relinquish the WBA and IBF belt. He was last name on Frampton or McGuigan lips.

It's what happens when you are born in Cuba. If he was born in Manchester he'd still be carrying multiple belts and he'd be a wealthy man.(well, in a vacuum. Only changing place of birth)

Quigg says his jaw was broken by an uppercut in the 4th round, it was swelling up in the dressing room as he spoke.

That still did not explain his slow and negative start.

I am surprised the fans did not start booing earlier.

[Silkeyjoe]

Fight went as expected for me. Scorecard for Quigg was a shocker but hey this is boxing. Both fighters light years behind Rigo. Pretty glad i couldnt get tickets for this in hindsight.

Some people paid £16.95 for the pleasure.

[Fenster]

I thought Quigg and especially Gallagher had learnt from the Salinas fight about doing nothing in the first half. Stupid tactics. Frampton didn't have to land anything to look like he was winning, he is a much superior mover.

What's the point of having a massive engine if you finish the fight with loads left.

The better boxer won. Massive letdown of a fight though.

I pretty much agree with this scoring

although im not sure about 7, id have to watch it again

I remember the commentators suggesting quigg had won the 7th but I didn't really think so at the time although he had clearly done better

even though at times Frampton was landing no more than quigg was in the early rounds he was trying to make a fight of it

[smashup]

What an absolute fucking let down that was. Quigg and his teams tactics were a joke plus some of the instruction between rounds was barely amateur.
Yet again im glad I never have to pay to watch these supposed ppv borefests.
Quigg should have rushed him from the off and made it ugly, he showed Frampton way to much respect.

[erics44]

quiggs best chance was to try and bash him up

and before the fight I thought he had a good chance of doing that

[Lineal]

Quigg's jaw may have attributed to his tentativeness and his failure to start faster. I thought by round 4 he would start to turn it on. It's a credit to him that he was able to put hands on Frampton and start doing some damage in the late rounds.

Frampton deserved the victory. I cannot see how Quigg was up one that one card?

Quigg's jaw broke in the 4th and can not explain his slow start. Scott and his trainer got their tactics completely wrong.
