    Look at Framptons reaction when he realises he's made the weight.

    Frampton is struggling at the weight, for how long he's been struggling to make 122 i have no idea.

    Quigg looked drawn in the face, clearly no liquids for him these past 2 days. Carl looked the same as ever, tight, but no different to before

    I thought Quigg looked a bit glassy eyed, a bit drawn.

    Might not be anything in it but I remember thinking the same before Groves fought Froch (the second time) and I don't care what anyone says Groves was not as good second time around.

    In contrast I thought Frampton looked cool as a cucumber and ready for business.

    Quigg looked a lot more distressed than Frampton. :yikes
    Quigg looked about as healthy as a junkie.
    And with the next weigh in tomorrow morning he must be in serious trouble...:dead

    Like i said, Carl is DRY.

    This may be what he normally looks like pre fight, i wouldn't know.

    Quigg looked the same way he always does at the scales, so don't understand some of the uneducated comments from some.

    You just keep praying that Carls as good as you make out, although i see you rate Scotts chances much higher on other threads. :good

    Dont be stupid. Carl is not dry at all.

    Quigg looks worse than usual.

    I am consistant across all theads. Frampton wins this.

    Even if Frampton wins tomorrow and is truly struggling with the weight I don't think he has much success against the world top 5 126lbers.

    I seen the comment Johnny Nelson made that Frampton didn't sweat during the open media workout which is a sign he's dry and struggling to make the weight... so I gave it a watch and to be honest thought it was a load of *******s, he did the pads for 2-3 mins in shorts and t-shirt....

    Frampton looked in fine and in real good nick on the scales today.

    Quigg on the other hand, I actually thought he looked gaunt... very tight around the cheek bones! I seen a comparison pic between how he looked at yesterday's press conference compared to today's weigh in and there is a noticeable difference in those 24hrs.

    Either way, let's hope the pair of them have done the weight with no problems and produce a great fight.

    Yes in the past few days Quigg appearance has deteriorated suddenly and dramatically - indicating he has done the weight the 'wrong' way, by crash dieting.

    Frampton looks very tight too, but nowhere near as bad as Quigg indicating he has done the weight the 'right' way - gradually, scientifically...
