    Frampton for me. Think it will be a bit like Liam Smith's last fight where he was getting outboxed for the most part but was having some success, think it happens like that over the 12 rounds. I think he will outbox Quigg who will come in with his high guard, but Quigg will still take shots still, hard one's at that at times.

    It's been quite easy for him to come forward against lesser opponents, but everytime he's stepped up in class he's always been a lot more cagey (Salinas / Martinez).

    Frampton only loses imo if he get's silly and start's getting wild in exchanges or if he gasses, I don't see him gassing and if he fights smart he should be ok.

    People are basing too much on the last performances, rather then the fighters actual ability imo.

    Kiko just blew away his opponent in two rounds.

    He's most dangerous coming off a loss.

    Quigg destroyed Kiko at his most dangerous. Frampton ran for his life.

    Len used to pretend to be reasonable and say it was a close fight. Now his true IRA colours are coming out and he's blindly backing the three legged donkey in a horse race. Its glorious to watch.

    People are reading too much into the previous performances. Quigg won the battle but I still believe Frampton wins the war. Better footwork, good punch variety and use of angles, can fight coming forward and backwards.

    I think Frampton has the better whiskers, despite the previous fight (hitting the canvas doesn't mean you don't have a good chin), but I think he is the more susceptible to the body. As such Quigg is very much a live underdog. But I think Frampton takes it, late stoppage.

    Perfectly acceptable ****ysis, and understandably so.

    Both remain unproven to me, and both get scorched by the real man at the weight.

    Problem i have is that whilst Frampton gets labelled legitimate by taking a belt from Kiko, Quigg gets called unproven for taking 4 minutes to pummell Kiko in defence of his so called plastic belt.
