Carl Frampton beat Scott Quigg on Saturday to unify world super-bantamweight titles. The Northern Irishman was having a relatively comfortable night of it before Quigg came to life in the later rounds and turned it into a meaty scrap.
In the end, Frampton won on a somewhat controversial 115-113 split decision. But when all was said and done and the brawl was lost and won, both pugilists showed they were class acts with a great deal of genuine respect for each other.
This video shows the victor entering Quigg's dressing room - with Wayne Rooney present - and embracing his worthy adversary. As Frampton himself admits: "It's all a windup. You know what it's like, playing the game man!"
