This Saturday at The Manchester Arena two Briitish
Champion in the Super-Bantamweight Champions will collide in one of the biggest all British fights ever made. This weekend Carl Frampton and Scott Quigg will put their IBF and WBA Super-Bantamweight titles on the line in a fight that has been talked about for four years back when Quigg was British Champion, since those times fans have endlessly
demanded the fight be made but with a clash between Eddie Hearn and Barry Mcguigan the promoters of the two fighters it seemed that we might never get this fight. But promoters finally came to an agreement and we have a huge mega fight on our hands and both camps including trainers don’t like each other, tickets for this fight sold out within five minutes which shows how big this fight has become to sell out a great in Manchester that Ricky Hatton, (Prince) Naseem Hamed, Joe Calzaghe, Mike Tyson, Amir Khan and David Haye have all headlined. With this fight we are getting a genuine proper 50-50 fight that so many people including me are finding it hard to break down. With Frampton you’d expect around thousand of
Nothern Irish/Irish fans to invade Manchester this week all to support the man from Tigers Bay in Belfast who has been mentored by legendary fighter Barry Mcguigan who also hails from Nothern Irleand and his trained by Barry’s son Shane who has become one of the most recognised trainers in the country who now trains David Haye and George Groves. Scott Quigg is one of the most dedicated people in the world to his profession on a level I can only say Cristiano Ronaldo is on, Quigg also did something that would surprise most people at the age of 15 he had his parents write to his school headteacher asking for him to be excluded from school to completely focus on Boxing which is something you wouldn’t see from most parents, Quigg is trained by Joe Gallagher who is
arguably the best trainer in the country boasting three world champions and British Champions under Gallagher Quigg has kept hold of his title and looked well in all his defences. When I see this I know it won’t disappoint because of all the buildup over the years it’s only going to explode when the first bell goes. It is very rare in British Boxing that we get a unification clash but on Saturday we will have one and all I can really say is enjoy it because this fight of the magnitude that it is will not come around again for a while and with both vowing to KO the other don’t expect it to last the distance.
Fight Prediction: Frampton victory by KO in mid rounds.
