Official Frampton - Quigg RBR/Discussion Thread

[jameswilson]

OMFG... is Michael Buffer actually still alive?

I think it's someone else wearing his skin.

[Taansend]

a great fight this. come at the right time aswell. we've all got our predictions now its time to see who's calling it correctly

I'm still unable to give one, mate.

On one hand I can see Frampton controlling the fight & breaking down Quigg for a later stoppage. I can also see an early stoppage for either fighter. Points for each one. A beating by Quigg. All possible.

Or not.

It's now live on Showtime as well. So my choice is a decent stream via Sky or an excellent view via Showtime. But I don't think the US tv will play up the ring entrances like Sky will.

Plus I like borrowing airtime from Uncle Rupert. I can picture him throwing chairs around his house & yelling at Jerry Hall to "sit down & shut up, you daft Sheila" while he figures out where the missing 17 quid is

Could have played a less obvious Manchester band...

Don't know why but I'v always wanted one of the London boxers to come out to 'Snooker loopy' by Chas and Dave.

[SNG]

I'd just like something a bit obscure like Gerry Hologram by Gerry and the Holograms

[tigermoth87]

The fornicate did he say?

It's not English, it's not Irish it's just well... it's just pikey.

and that is what makes it an exciting fight although many have predictions others like yourself don't for very valid reasons that leave the "what on earth is about to happen" factor hanging in the air and providing an excited feeling you can't get in another sport

[Tarkus]

Irish crowd dominates Mancunian. The shape of the things to come.

A bloke I used to work with used to rent a room from a couple who had a special needs child. The kid would play that song over & over all day long.

[Neil Gee]

Yeeh-haa. Can hardly believe it's finally happening.

Boxing politics seem specifically designed just to stop fights like this from happening.

[jameswilson]

[Tangerine]

The scenario most likely (in my head) is Mayweather Corrales with Frampton being Mayweather. But I can see Quigg outhustling him too.

Did people just boo at the mention of Camp Eddie?

[Loftgroov]

Its funny how many people have paid christ knows what for a ticket, and then stand there head glued to their phone.

[Boxerbeetle]

Looks like no anthems. Thank fvck

I was thinking that

Same people who in Belfast were asking for selfies.

Nah, you must be mistaken. No one would boo Eddie he's a beloved national treasure.
