Boxing


The 10th was the only round with one clear winner. Quigg stepped up in the 2nd half of the fight but he wasn't a clear winner of all those rounds. I dint think he hurt Frampton until that round. Gallagher got the tactics wrong and Quigg can feel unlucky for that reason.
 
Why is it after fights like this the fans clearly see what the judges don't, never would one of us score 12-16 to Frampton.

Happens so much in boxing, I think a draw would have been a decent decision, but the first 6 rounds I'd call a draw, last 6 clearly Quigg.

Rounds 7 - 11 were definitely quigg. Nothing got thrown in the first round, literally nothing.

So that means Quigg gets 114 points bare minimum. 112 is deeply suspicious.

Not gonna lie mate.

Your avatar makes me nervous.

So, whatever you say is fine with me Paul Power..

But Frampton did nothing, both were cagey, Quigg knows now he has the upper hand on him, last 6 rounds Quigg was on top and rocked him in the 10th, the Ref was too quick to give Frampton chance to recover.

Agree with you, the opening one for instance , how could you give it either way?
Just thought frampton by the fact of walking forward, might catch the judges eye a bit more, nothing else was happening from either, thought it strange Gallagher wasn't telling him to get a bit closer and up the tempo it would have not taken much to win those rounds, as soon as quigg realised he was down on the cards he started winning the rounds, not the last one but from the sixth onwards,
Ref did jump in to quick by the way.
 
Frampton won by a couple of rounds, was basically the salinas fight against a better opponent, quigg isnt good enough to take the early rounds because he has to wait for his size to have an impact in the latter rounds against tired opponents, people can cry arse all they want because they got their predictions wrong, rigo walks to victory against both of these

The judges must have been scoring punches that hit the gloves. It was more like a pad session. I remember Quigg drawing using the same tactics, looks like gallagher doesnt learn lessons.

seemed that way, Quigg offered nothing in those early rounds, not saying frampton did much more but at least looked like he wanted to engage in a fight.
The corner should be reading the fight and respond with the info to the fighter, you could see Quigg was shocked when in the 6th he got told he was down, and he changed his game plan.
I wasn't sure who won at the end, had it a draw or Frampton by a round , due to those early rounds,
to be honest wasn't impressed with either fighter.

I had no horse in the race really - one was a Manc and the other was Northern Irish; I didn't care.

I don't see how you can make a case for Frampton winning by 2+ rounds, as Quigg clearly won 7-11, as in beyond any dispute. You'd have to give all the first six to Frampton to have it by 2, and I can't make any case at all to score it by four. I can't even give Frampton the first six. I'd give him three or four; the others were 10-10s.

It's worrying that judges seem to count punches that land on the gloves, which is all Frampton did for the second half of the fight.
