    Frampton for me, Quegg has a proper irritating face. Hope it gets cut up a bit

      Exactly what jaco said. Want frampton, but in an even match the bigger man might have the edge...

        Yeah I do think the size difference is the one area in which they can be split.

        It is pretty much a 50/50 fight in every other department other than size, but I do subscribe to the idea that more often than not a good big 'un beats a good small 'un.


        Will be hoping for a result more akin to Holyfield/Bowe II than the fights that bookend that particular trilogy.
        I don't hate people. I just feel better when they aren't around.

          Actually having mentioned Holyfield/Bowe, think a viewing of their first fight might be in order. Just as a reminder of what it used to look like when two top heavies met.

            Speaking of that era, reading Tyson's autobiography ATM.

            One hell of a fascinating read. He doesn't hold anything back.

              Yeah a lot of what is in the book is brutally frank. Is similar to Sugar Ray Leonard's autobiography from a few years back in that regard.

                Surprise so many think Quigg has a chance tomorrow.

                His fight against a faded Martinez seems to have turned a lot of people's heads.

                Frampton on points for me.

                Oh and Frampton has already won the event. Anyone who calls Eddie Hearn 'a lanky cunt' is alright by me.

                Anyone buying this tomorrow? There doesn't appear to be too much of a buzz around this fight amongst the non-boxinh fraternity which is a real shame.

                Rigo still dances round the winner

                  That ego game is ridiculous though. Almost embarrassing.

                    Big hype in Belfast (obviously), but more people seem to be going to it, rather than buying it.
                    If we are all only happy when we are really winning in the end, when your race finishes, what life would that be?

                      Hope Frampton wins. Joe Gallagher is a massive, massive, arrogant Manc cunt. Dont mind Quigg though I'll be glad when it's underway so I dont have to hear "I train harder than everyone else" "No one trains harder than me" for the millionth time.

                            Frampton to win for me. As Jake O'Kane said, in NI they don't breed big men but they breed them with big hearts. It'll go long and I reckon the wee(er) man's grit will get him through on points.

                            Hopefully so as I can't stand Quigg for some reason.

                              Rooting for Frampton and fancy Frampton on points. Looking forward to it.
                              Thanks very much for being

                                Yeah, been watching vids of the build up, pretty much all i've seen of Quigg, and i agree, for some reason i just can't take to him.

                                I think it's all the bull**** quotes he comes out with about why he's so special.
