It is for his promotional team. He's already selling out in Belfast. They can make a fortune with an unbeaten (it doesn't matter to hardcores but sure does casuals) young "Irish" guy, especially if they can fiddle a title, before throwing him in the deep end.
I believe Carl can win a world title without having to "fiddle it".
Quigg ducked him like a pussy, and everybody says Quigg will win a world title.
Frampton is an amazing fighter, he's got what it takes.
I agree Frampton is "world" title material. However, Rigondeaux is THE world champion and I don't think Frampton can beat him (especially at the moment).
So even if Frampton beats one of the other alphabet holders, I wouldn't put much weight in his claim to be "world" champion. But the paying public sure as fuck would, so they'd cash in on it.
Quigg didn't duck Frampton. The fight was offered to Quigg after they split to BoxNation. They knew full well that Quigg couldn't fight on BoxNation after just signing a deal with Matchroom (SKY) likewise Frampton couldn't fight on SKY after just signing with BoxNation. It's just common promotional bollocks.
The fight was offered when both were on sky about a year and a half ago.
Frampton won a fight on sky sports and called Quigg out, who was a pundit that night upstairs.
Right after the interview it went back up stairs to the pundits and the first thing they did was ask Quigg if he'd accept, and he was very, very reluctant to answer.
You say tomato,
‘n I say …… it correctly.
