    Looking at Frampton speaking today, just something seems a little off. Anyone else agree? I can't put my finger on it, but he just seems a little timid.

    Class can still win out (just like Froch/Groves), but I'm thinking Quigg has managed to win the mental game before and could get the better start on Saturday and very quickly make it his fight.

    I've been thinking from the media tour in November that Quigg's team and much more confident than Frampton's.

    I used to think that Quigg's team wanted the fight more before Frampton moved onto bigger things, now I think they really believe they will win.

    One thing that would not suprise me, is if Frampton came in a couple of pounds overweight on Friday, which would achieve a few things-

    1. Make Team Quigg think that he was telling the truth when he said his performance in his last fight was due to struggling to make weight.

    2. Give Frampton a couple of pounds advantage.

    3. Allow him to duck his mandatories, and move up after the fight (and save face) if he wins.

    I also think Carl looked sharp as hell during the media workout, and Quigg looked robotic and lethargic

    I think it's more to do with that Scott is so dense and Carl is a smart kid, that just looking at Scott and that sh*t-eating grin probably f*cks Carl off big time. Not to mention what he say's when he talks... :lol::lol:

    If it's something as simple as a bowel movement that means he's overweight i wouldnt be suprised if he's weighs in overweight, claims he going to sweat it off and comes back an hour later to make Quigg camp think hes struglling

    And what makes me laugh is considering frampton and co are supposed to be the brains they really struggle. Quigg has got to them by being honest and straight talking where as it's clear Shane and Carl spent last night concocting the dressing room thing to try and wind quigg up and downloading Steve wonder to his phone. You'd thing they would do better

    Quigg definitely appearing more relaxed and natural which is probably what's getting to Frampton.

    Quigg appears to be a man who will not be denied.

    But if he does lose I think his own self confidence (which I reckon took ages to build) might be badly damaged.

    Then again I think the same with Frampton if he lost. :think

    I think your right. If Quigg doesnt beat frampton tomorrow, there is a sense he never will
