Huge fight for the UK. I hope it's televised here in the States.

Probably will but first thank al haymon it was made

Im surprised Frampton has given up home advantage. The fight is well poised because Frampton looked weight drained and had some problems in his last fight and Quigg surprised everyone. 50/50 - I think Frampton has more speed and ability but Quigg is sturdier and has heavier hands.

Good fight!

If the winner fights Rigo in a unification bout it's going to be a great year for the super bantam division.

Nope Rigo is out( very sad to say though he is still Lineal) who ever wins goes after the WBC or WBO but Frampton probably moves up.

F.uck yeah

[B-Bomber]

rigo was just stripped of both of his titles. i think he may be the next wba mandatory though

I didn't know that, I thought he still had the WBA belt.

Regardless, Frampton/Quigg winner vs Rigo would be a fight I'd love to see. From what I get from you guys though, it's not going to happen, right?.

You can get 10,000 more in Manchester than Belfast. Financially it makes more sense.

Quigg isn't a massive draw either. I expect you'll be hearing Frampton fans more predominantly on fight night, as he has an actual following. Quigg's been bumped twice from the top of the bill in favour of Anthony Crolla, who isn't a world champ but a local favourite who brings more fans. There'll be people in the arena supporting Quigg, but they won't be as co-ordinated or as passionate as Frampton's Irish lot.

Quigg will lose

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Great news... This is a very good matchup, as it will by far be the biggest fight of either's career..

I'm leaning towards Frampton decision..

[Fetta]

Love it.
