Frampton v Quigg II

[Taansend]

Quigg wants to be the opponent on August 18th.

I'd watch it. He came on well towards the end in the last fight although I still think Carl wins on points. Buit Quigg has tremendous heart & will.

What do you reckon?

doesnt excite me at all really. i like new things

lthough i actually had the fight a draw, frampton hardly won a round in the 2nd half i thought

Id like to see it. Not with Joe Gallagher anymore, the architect behind the strategy of starting so slow. Didn't make weight against Valdez (right war, broken nose Quigg, broken jaw Valdez) so prob needs to move up in weight.

[maverick23]

Meh.

Not particularly bothered by it.

FW has backed himself into a bit of a corner with this Frampton card. He said it would be a world title fight (hopefully for Frampton he’s not counting a defence of the WBO interim). Most world champs won’t be available (Warrington, Valdez, Santa Cruz) on the date booked and they’d have to pay a load to get Russell over.

Wasn't that because of the fractured foot in training though?

That was mentioned later- to quell the bad press Quigg was getting basted with. Obviously they don't give away weaknesses prior to the actual fight. It was disappointing that Scott was so far off and unwilling to try and cut further. I also didn't notice him limping or struggling to move during the fight.
who knows what the truth is, and if we can handle it.

Well if him & his camp are lying & he just couldn't make the weight then they're bloody stupid fooling themselves into thinking they can still make 126.

He didn't seem to have problems making weight in his other fights at Feather. He weighed under the limit easily enough 4 months prior to the bout.

[forcefraser]

Quigg comes across as very proffesional in his approach which makes the fact that he missed weight by so much even more puzzling.

I hope he get`s the rematch with Frampton. He came on strong in the second half of their first fight and without the broken jaw and a faster start it would have been very close.

Seems like a nice bloke old Quigg. Simple, but decent. He`s a tough bugger though. that`s two fights now he has gone the distance against world class opposition with a broken jaw.

Doesn't do much for me

Frampton again though

I believe Quigg had a sore foot,if he couldnt make the weight he would just say its a bad judgement. Id watch a second fight and i think quigg would probably beat frampton in a return

[THEBUTCH]

No thank you. Quigg hasn't got the mental strength or tools at this level.

[Stuarty]

If Warren can't get Carl a world title fight for the set date then this is probably the next best thing. I wouldn't mind seeing it again. I think it would be a better fight this time around as well.

Tools maybe but mental strength

[Ezzard]

One of the best fights out there. I would love to see it. Lack of enthusiasm surprises me. I'd expect a totally different fight.

[brilo33]

think it is a 50/50 fight, deffo watch it, but i think it is a shame were going down the route of more like exhibition fights again , rather then world titles on the line like a couple of years back
