Hindsight is an easy thing, but for me this is a genuine 50/50 before the event. I wouldn't be surprised if one of these guys takes the other one out though. Quigg has looked really good recently, but I can't help but think that he has been knocked down twice by non-punchers. One was early in his career and even the Jamie Arthur one was years ago, but they happened nonetheless. I always think its a bad sign, and Frampton is a pretty concussive puncher. I would have liked to have seen more of Quigg against Martinez see him get hit with a few big shots, but fair play he is a massive puncher himself and wiped him out.
Its one of those fights that a knock out could come at any time, but if it doesn't then I see Quigg feeling his way into the fight early, falling behind on the cards, but then maybe starting to come on in the second half of the fight. From a technical point of view Quigg is a very good body puncher but Frampton stands very side on and doesn't give you a great look at his body, it is one of the most interesting fights of the year thats for sure.
