We should be set for a cracker as IBF World super-bantamweight champion Carl Frampton and his WBA counterpart Scott Quigg go toe-to-toe in the Manchester Arena on Saturday night, and it's clear that there will be a lot of interest in this one now that all the talking is finished.
If it wasn't clear that there is major interest in this, then perhaps a bet between two of the biggest sportsmen on the planet will make that point as after Rory McIlroy took exception to Wayne Rooney offering Scott Quigg his support, a friendly bet between the two was agreed.
All the best @scottquigg tonight. Hope you do it mate

Both top fighters mate but @scottquigg for me. How about the loser pays the bill next time your in Manchester? https://t.co/lVCTsClaG8

It may not seem like much, but that is bound to be one expensive bill with these two involved.
It's sure to be an entertaining fight and a wild atmosphere in Manchester, and if you'd like to know how we think it's going to go then have a read of our preview; Frampton vs Quigg: Who Wins And How?
