    Steely eyed and determined? Quigg stood trying his best not to blink but couldn't help it. Couldn't help but take a few big gulps as well. And then the flinch when Frampton blew him a kiss?

    It's been dawning on Quigg all week, he knows what he's involved in now. It's getting real for him.

    I noticed that too. It did look like it was warped (The picture, I mean). But that doesn't explain his skeletal like face.

    You can't lie in bed straight when it comes to the wee man and Frampton.

    The pic on the right 'represents' how Quigg ' normally' looks on fight night all right?:patsch

    OK but the point still stands that he looked like a junkie the day before the fight.

    OK fair enough, never noticed it that much before so just shows how bad cutting weight is.

    The difference between pictures is mainly due to the differences in lighting. There's also some discrepancy between the structure of his face, the nose profile is nothing alike.

    It means nothing, well obviously it does to Len, the man who tipped Spike to smash Jr recently :lol: Watch the Banter Juice video on Sky Sports from this morning, Quigg looks great. :bbb

    Lies. I never tipped Spike to win - I just WANTED him to win alright?

    What sort of twit says THAT picture is due to 'lighting'???? :patsch

    Try doing some research, instead of banging on about ****all.

    All mouth and no substance.

    Thing is, the poster isn't a mick, and Framptons forefathers would be disgusted with the way he's sold and conducted himself.

    The light in the right hand photo is pretty much on axis with the lens, most probably shot by a photographer using a speedlight on top of his camera, proven by the harsh shadow behind him. This 'face on' lighting covers up the skeletal structure by filling in the shadows naturally created by the skull.

    The shot on the left has a dominant light source from above, hence the skeletal look to his face. Shine your iPhone torch from underneath your chin in the dark and see how hollow you become around the eyes, same applies from above. If I was a twit in regards to this subject, I wouldn't have the next star of season 6 Game of Thrones paying me to shoot his portfolio :hi:

    BB sometimes we are all inclined to overannalyse. So you take pictures. Good for you. But anyone can tell Quigg looks bad in that pic. Sometimes it is what it is.
