Sweet! The fight is taking place in my hometown, I'm definitely going to be there!
He ducked Quigg and 1.5m for this. Nice.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
Interesting that this takes place on the same night as Quigg-Martinez. Hopefully they both win and stop fucking about and fight each other.
Frampton is a good fighter, but so is Quigg the avoided guy is Rigo he is the top man in the division,
if you can beat Rigo you are the man.!
Frampton is the proper champion, is the infinitely bigger draw and would be travelling to England for the fight and Hearn is treating him like a Mexican roadsweeper. There was never a chance of a deal without Hearn doing a co promotion with McGuigan and Frampton getting at least 50% of the promotional pot, not just a cheque while Eddie makes a bundle. Hearn must have known the deal would never be acceptable but the big cheque looks good in the papers and hides the fact that it's Quigg ducking Frampton.
(Neither guy is scared of fighting the other, Hearn just doesn't want to let McGuigan have any part of the pie and Frampton feels he is quite rightly the main attraction and deserves to be compensated accordingly.)
And who is Frampton fighting anyway? Has this guy been on the telly before?

Yes he was on songs of praise.
Remember reality is an illusion caused by a lack of alcohol .
As long as it is on ITV does it really matter?
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Hold up a second... Frampton won a belt from a man he had already ironed out. The only proper champ in this division is Rigo.
Team Frampton wanted a 70-30 split to fight Quigg.
Team Quigg offered a 60-40 to the winner split. Refused.
Team Quigg then pulled the stunt of offering 1.5m. Refused. (obviously Eddie knew young Carl was never gonna make close to that in any subsequent fight and was just chinning out Barry McGuigan in public).
Frampton then accused team Quigg of low balling and revealed that he thinks the fight is worth 12m. Eddie reveals that neither Carl or Barry ever attended the meetings they scheduled. Then Carl signs with Al Haymon to fight mexican road sweeper in Texas with no British TV deal in place.
That about sums it up.

It will be on ITV, he has a contract with them.
Barry is bringing boxing back to the people.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
This is a pathetic opponent. Let's just be honest. I'm hoping the idea is that Frampton will face the LSC/mares winner in his following fight. Not as good as Quigg, but still a fine fight.
