In slow motion PAC knocks everyone out... In spite of his tight socks...
Sorry
Felt an urge to pinch a loaf, and make this about PAC in slow motion...
Framton & Quigg both luv the Shyte out of fanny...
Sky's commentary was a joke.
Jim Watt had Frampton 3 points up with 3 rounds to go, yet after 11 he had Quigg winning by a point....

They were actually there. One of the judges actually saw it that way as well. So not a joke.
It was a very poor fight for 8 rounds.
I'd like to think it just happens, but you never know.
Jim Watt is usually pretty relentless when it comes to talking up the fighters he's clearly hoping wins and I think Galling is worse.
I wonder if it's something they talk about and agree on, to be biased towards the SKY fighter or is it just they can't help themselves.
SKY are the worst culprits for this, much worse than Boxnation pundits/commentators.

at one point jim said ' quigg didnt do anything that round, so i have to give it to frampton '
WTF?
So if he does do something...then you automatically give it to quigg?:lol1:
it's embarrassing how bad they are, when you think they can't get any worse....
Didn't Froch also score a draw but after the fight said he thought Frampton won but his card was a draw lol
Yep.
Called it a draw, yet after the fight and on Twitter after he said the right man clearly won. They were trying to give reason to justify a robbery had it happened.

that was one of the worst commentary i have EVER listened to by sky.
they had it a draw and some had quigg winning ? GTFOH
the fact they/people on here even thought it was close, just goes to show how many of you DKSAB.
frampton won by a country mile. it was not even remotely close :nonono:

Had he started earlier, he'd have been stopped IMO.
I believe they waited for Frampton to slow a little before taking any risks. Quigg was extremely cautious and still got a broken jaw from a counter.
I question how good joe gallagher really is as a trainer. He admitted that that he thought Quigg was level on points with Frampton until someone told him otherwise. The game plan was all wrong, if they wanted to test Framptons conditioning then they needed to start at a fast pace. Quigg only started boxing in round 8 and his body shots where visibility effecting a tiring Frampton. Had he started sooner I suspect the outcome would have been very different.
So Frampton got tired the minute that Quigg realised he was behind and switched his style? Nah.
I think Frampton would have still won but Quigg gives himself a much better chance coming out and fighting to his strengths from the start. Framptons defence really isnt very good and Quigg gave him pass over that for 7 rounds. When he stepped it up Framptons shortcomings were much more apparent imo. He didnt look tired to me
Quigg looked tired himself though at the end of the 11th and 12th, his technique started to look disorganised and wide. I think he blew his gasket a bit, he has never fought from round 1-12 at a good pace, I have never seen him do it. He may train all year around and be in the best possible shape for him, but there is a difference between that and being someone who can keep up a pace throw a tonne of punches round after round at championship level. He has never proved he can do that, he has only done it in spurts, and to be honest I don't think he can.
I also think he has a little vulnerability around the whiskers, which is why he doesn't open up too much early in fights, although on that point I will say I was surprised that Frampton never wobbled him and he showed great toughness. He must have some "closet" limitations otherwise he would do what he did in rounds 8-11 against both Salinas and Frampton more consistently. The other observation I will make is that in those late rounds against Frampton, the commentators created more drama than was actually there. They were making out that Quigg was actually dominating the action, when if you go back and watch it those rounds were pretty tit for tat, although Quigg was getting the better of it for sure.

I thought he looked very tired in 9, 10 and 11....as he usually does. He stopped moving and stood right there which is not his style.
I don't think Quigg waits that long if he felt he could bully Frampton early. He was overly cautious, got his jaw broke by a counter and was down 7-1. Round 12 would have been the story of the fight had Quigg tried to force it from the start, might even have got stopped.
As I said, I don't think he could have started that way as a fresh Frampton would have capitalized on it.
Even while tired, Frampton knew the 12th could be important and he went out and won it easily. Made Quigg miss everything, caught him throughout and completely controlled it...I've got no doubt that Frampton would have done more than break Quigg's jaw had he fought like that from the start.

I disagree. That was a clear tactical plan from Quiggs end rather than Frampton making him fight that way.
As soon as Gallagher told him he was behind he switched on.
yup the fight changed once Gallagher told Quigg he was far behind on scores. He became much more aggressive and had real success. Frampton came on strong in the 12th because the pace of the fight was so slow, if Quigg had pushed the tempo up from the start I think the fight could have been very different.
"I had it level after four rounds and even though we lost the middle rounds, I couldn't believe it when someone told me TV had us 6-1 down," said Gallagher

So Gallagher thought the fight was even until someone told him otherwise, pretty clueless.

I don't think he could have done that early.
He was clearly cautious of the power, suffered a broken jaw and was taking zero risks. He only got brave down the stretch when Frampton slowed a little.
Even then, in the 12th round when it was important, Frampton came out and put him back in his place with a one sided round.

What a disappointing fight, both were far to gun-shy and cagey for the first 6 rounds. It didnt really come alive until round 8. I'm so disappointed with Quigg - not sure what the game-plan was but he blew the fight. Far to inactive for too many rounds, he did show when he finally came alive that he was physically much stronger than Frampton, bullying him around the ring and landing some decent shots. If he had started like that early he would have won the fight.
