The Scott Quigg appreciation thread.

Is this a real thread?

 

Never minded Quigg but his association with Dodgey Hearn and Gallagher has put me off him somewhat.

 

Agreed.

And then Quigg opens his mouth and calls himself the money man!

He's never been a headliner, had arenas built for him, filled a venue by himself etc.

 

Well said. I'm a fan of Frampton and will be backing him on the 27th, but Quigg is a fighter who's improved and really dedicates himself to the sport.

The only downside is that his trainer loves the camera...

 

Ditto what you said to the TS, but the Wee Fella is a massive egomaniac, and his son is getting way too much credit for what Gerry Storey did.

 

Don't agree that Barry is an egomaniac, I've met him a few times over the years (last a few years ago on the Hatton / Senchenko undercard of which Quigg ironically boxed on the undercard of) and I've found him to be a decent down to earth bloke.

Never met Shane, but he seems to speak sense. Also every time I've heard him in the corner, his advice seems spot on.

 

If anyone in this whole circus is an ego maniac, it's Joe G.

He is his own biggest fan.

 

He's obviously a good trainer who's got a talented stable on his hands, but he doesn't half love the camera!

 

Do admire the way Scott has handled himself throughout all the verbal confrontations. He's coped far better than Mcguigan and Frampton thought he would.

The fight to me is a case of one guy who's been slightly over-rated in his career versus a guy who has been under-appreciated. If only he wasn't trained by Joe Gallagher, a guy I just can't support.

 

Seriously you should give it a rest about frampton a populatlrity in Ireland. It's not like he's popular for any reason than circumstance. He's not a p4p fighter and his personality isn't going to set the world on fire. He's a nice guy and a descent boxer but he's just fortunate with where he's from and the surrounding circumstances. At least if he does lose next week you could always get him a trophy for a popularity contest or because he's apparently so much more intelligent than quigg they could both go on countdown

 

+1 here too. Don't mind Scott at all, and wouldn't really mind who wins next week. The reason I'm slightly leaning towards wanting Frampton to do it is because of the way Joe Gallagher and Hearn carry on sometimes.

 

Let's not forget the facts here. Frampton is a true champion, a true star. He has won his title in the ring, filled arenas, headlined bills etc.

Quigg is none of the above.
Quigg is just a decent challenger, that's all, another challenger.

 

A true star yes, but only in northern ireland. The same as quigg is in Bury.
