    Frampton hits harder and can match Quigg in virtually every other category.

    Frampton > Quigg.

    I see Frampton ahead of Quigg in skillset but he dropped the ball when he moved over to Frank I feel. The Quigg fight now might never happen as McGuigan isn't going to take the short end of the stick and if rumours are to be believed that and Eddie already has Kiko lined up for after Salinas then he's got no bargaining chips to work with. Quigg will be the one with the World Titles and the more lucrative TV deal.

    Where does that leave Frampton in the grand scheme of things?

    I wouldn't feel comfortable putting him in with Santa Cruz and Rigondeaux would tear the lad a new arsehole. So that leaves Quigg in a very strong position, if he should get past Salinas and Martinez that is.

    Got a feeling McGuigan and Frampton will be kicking themselves this week,

    I think it's close to be honest and I'd be more of a Frampton fan. Great fight if it happened.

    I think Frampton has dropped the ball by McGuigan being more greedy than he should. I think he would of had the IBF title shot now if everything is how it reads if Quigg wins the world title we could have a unifaction bout in January/February with Kiko Martinez that means Quigg could hold two bouts in the division and Frampton would either have to earn a mandatory or be forced into fighting for peanuts.

    I like Frampton a lot and I have seen more of him than Quigg who also seems like a top prospect.I don't think the move is that detrimental for Frampton,remember he is Irish if he keeps going well and catches American tv interest the sky,excuse pun is the limit!

    Sky isn't the be all end all in boxing, Frampton keeps winning he'll be in the driving seat, as Rhodsie said he's potentially got the US market to break into down the line.

    Quigg edges it for me,but I totally agree with everything else here. Boxnation is good for the golden boy shows, but it wont last if FW has no champs on his shows.

    I'm not even convinced Quigg could beat Martinez let alone Frampton.

    Frampton by late KO.

    Seriously! Quigg hasnt even headlined a main event fight yet and Frampton is Filling stadiums in Ireland.
