    Quiggs post fight interview and general comments on Frampton by him and Gallagher leave the impression that they don't want the fight.

    Interviewer - "So Scott, will you fight Carl Frampton next"

    Quigg (im paraphrasing) - "eh, well eh, eh it's eh, i mean, you know eh, its my night, you know, eh, eh, i mean, eh i won tonight, you know, i mean, eh, it's my night tonight eh"

    :lol:

    Frampton has been dismissive of the British fighters, Quigg is probably put out by this

    Added to that Frampton is pulling in some good crowds in Ireland, meaning financially it makes sense to hold the fight there, thats a tough one for Quigg on the road

    But ...... Quigg put out a massive statement in his last fight, people want the fight, hopefully these two feel obliged to put it on, but im not holding my breath

    Frampton kos Quigg quicker than Quigg can say 'Scott quigg', which could take a few rounds

    Its obvious,id say Quigg wants it but his camp dont,if they did they the fight would be made because Barry and Carl never shut up about it,Frampton is too clever for Quigg and stops him late or wins on points..

    The only time they have even been made on offer was when they had already signed to fight munroe. Other then that they are all talk where as quigg is more respectful have you ever heard him talk trash about anyone? Just because frampton, mcguigan and Hearn talk **** doesn't make any of it true and just because it says in the press they want the fight doesnt mean they have made an offer. If because frampton runs his mouth where as quigg doesn't that makes you believe one wants the fight any more than the other then that's for you to decide

    ^^ How is calling an opponent out 'Talking ****'?

    Domestically, the best are looking to fight the best, whats wrong with that? Its not like they're hurling insults at him.

    Quigg has just won the interim title and can now prob box a top 10 opponent and then fight for a world title, or box frampton for the commonwealth and if he doesn't he is ducking, scared and all the rest of it.

    I'm pretty sure they read that you would take Quigg to win if they fought frampton

    So you're dropping your monopoly money on Frampton within 10 seconds.

    I think you'll get good odds for the 50K.

    this isn't the first time he has ducked the question either.

    he was asked on Sky during one of Frampton fights, forget which one, might have been Ankrah fight, and he was non-commital when he was asked by Dave Darts.

    They are scared of a fighter with a bit of finesse. They don't bank on outboxing him and they aren't sure if Quigg can overpower someone of that ability, so they are going a more careful route.

    Credit to Frampton and Barry, even when they got a win that could consider him a legit world contender, they immeidately reiterated there interest in decimating Quigg.

    They are both good fighters but theres only one way to find out who is better.
