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.

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 :D
:OhYes:

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

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.

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

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

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