Scott Quigg Vs Carl Frampton

[Adamjr91]

Frampton won that close, but clear.
Crawford better deliver a KO tonight, then I'm in business.

don't want to see that again regardless.

Can't be ppv again unless it has DeGale vs Groves or some **** on the bill.

Disappointing man. Oh well - that's how it goes sometimes I suppose.

Still sour about Sanchez I see.

He had Canelo Lara 9-3

Jesus Christ.

When you have a non existent undercard then the main event really has to be a classic to justify it being PPV.

The last 4 rounds or so were pretty good but overall a disappointing fight.

Frampton just did enough, Quigg will kick himself he didn't put it on him earlier.

Jesus Christ.

The way he kept throwing punches even though he was missing and getting hit reminded me of when you start playing fight night career mode and the early shit opponents are ******edly aggressive and empty their stamina bar and get cleaned out. Sanchez was like that except he didn't seem to get tired. He was shit though.

Bloke clearly has gas - get that **** on a bike or something. He could probably a yellow jersey on the tour.

You know what's next, Frampton vs Rigo.

[Sparked_26]

Frampton/Rigo is another shocker.

No more ppvs for the little men in the UK after that, imo.

I can see Hearn trying to sell Frampton/Selby. He can only do that with DeGale vs Jack/Groves on an undercard or Calum Smith in a world title fight.

I'm amped for this one. About 3 hours until the Showtime telecast starts.

Man....I went off of this, and just got back from the gym. If it started at 3-330 PST the event shouldn't be over yet...did I miss it?

I don't see any boxing on any of the showtime channels for the rest of the night!


wtf?

It started at 2:30 PST. Very dull for the first 8 rounds, really picked up at the end though. They're replaying it after the Santa Cruz-Martinez and Ceja-Ruiz II fights on Showtime tonight.

What a sad state boxing's in.....these guys are horrible...
Quigg basically gifted Frampton the fight by letting him hit his arms for 7 rounds...
Frampton thinks he is so much more skilled than he is....he has a dwarf's body and would've been outworked by anyone with guts...... If Abner Mares were a little bigger, he would maul him....and Mares is basically a spent bullet.

Exactly what I said a few posts earlier (although you worded it better). Frampton really likes to look as if he is a boxing guru, imitating superior boxers (like Rigo, holding out his arms and practicing the shots in slo-mo) but he doesn't actually know why he is doing it. He doesn't understand how to box but he does a good impression of someone who does.
And yeah Quigg just threw the fight away, he could have easily won the bout with activity but he decided to be scared instead.
This was not a world level bout, these guys do not understand how to box, how to setup shots, how to land punches with accuracy, neither deserve to be called "champions".

What time is the santa cruz fight card starting tonight? Pissed I missed this event, really don't want to miss any of the next one.

And what about crawford/lundy, what channel is that on and is there any conflict in scheduling?

Yeah.....i was telling my brother from the start that Frampton was so short that he could only really land an up jab from outside and a counter right uppercut if Quigg got a bit too wild......and Frampton wasn't even positioned to counter whenever Quigg threw.....Quigg only needed to lead with the right, use his momentum to get close to Frampton and work him once in that range. Really, you nailed it in that these guys just don't know any of the real intricacies of fighting.
