Frampton tops Quigg by split decision for super-bantam belts

Frampton, from Northern Ireland, was only a slight favorite against local fighter Quigg, and the fight between the unbeaten pair also played out closely over 12 mainly cagey rounds before a sellout crowd of 20,000.

Later on, he showed what might have been and looked the more powerful puncher, but it was too little, too late for the man from Bury.

Quigg and promoter Eddie Hearn are now targeting a rematch with Frampton in his home city of Belfast later this year - possible at Windsor Park.

Quigg revealed that Manchester United and England captain Wayne Rooney, who was one of a host of celebrities ringside, came into his dressing room after the fight and told him to "keep his chin up". "Quigg is very good, strong and has great punch output but I don't believe this fight is about fitness or power - it's about technique and who can adapt on the night".
