Carl Frampton: Eddie Hearn wants former world champion back at Matchroom

Eddie Hearn says he will give Carl Frampton a Belfast fight with Leo Santa Cruz if he joins his Matchroom stable.

The former two-weight world champion from Belfast ended his long-standing partnership with Barry McGuigan's Cyclone Promotions earlier this month.

Matchroom promoted Frampton fights early in his career and Hearn says they have "unfinished business".

"He's a box office star - I can offer him Windsor Park fights, Leo Santa Cruz in Belfast," said Hearn.

Frampton wants to complete a trilogy of fights with Santa Cruz, with Windsor Park his preferred venue.

The Mexican won their second duel in January to avenge his defeat by Frampton last year and regain the WBA featherweight title.



The 30-year-old split with his then-manager McGuigan's Cyclone Promotions earlier this month after Frampton's comeback fight with Andres Gutierrez was postponed a day before the planned Belfast bout.

Frampton weighed in one pound over the featherweight limit and hours later the fight was called off when the Mexican was injured after slipping in the shower.

Matchroom and Frampton parted ways in 2013 because of a potential conflict of interest with McGuigan, who also wanted to be his joint-promoter.

Four years later and Hearn wants Frampton back in his stable and with a possible fight later this year.

"He'll want to fight as soon as possible. It's September on Friday and you've got to get moving to get a fight this year," added the promoter.

"I'm sure he's going to be talking to people soon - I'm presuming he'll talk with us. We would be keen to do so and we're very keen to work with Carl Frampton.

"I don't know if he likes me but we don't have to be friends. I can give him the big fights he wants and buckets loads of money as well."

Carl Frampton confirms Jamie Moore as new trainer after split from McGuigans

Belfast boxer Carl Frampton has confirmed Jamie Moore as his new trainer after his split from Cyclone Promotions and Shane McGuigan.

The two-weight world champion confirmed on Twitter that he would be linking up with Moore, who has worked with Matthew Macklin and Tommy Coyle.

Moore won Irish, British, Commonwealth and European titles during his career.

Frampton, 30, ended his long-standing partnership with Barry McGuigan's Cyclone Promotions last month.

The split came after the Northern Irishman's comeback fight with Andres Gutierrez was postponed a day before it was due to take place at the end of July.

Frampton weighed in one pound over the featherweight limit and hours later the fight was called off when the Mexican was injured after slipping in the shower.

Carl Frampton has joined MTK Global with the company acting in an advisory role with the former two-weight world champion.

"I feel they can get me the best deal with a promoter," said Framption, who aims to fight again later this year.

The British Boxing Board of Control said last week that Barry McGuigan was still contracted as Frampton's manager.

Frampton's legal team later told the board they believed his management contract with McGuigan was over.

The Belfast featherweight said he was a "free agent" a fortnight ago.

Frampton resigned as a director of McGuigan's Cyclone Promotions just before his last scheduled fight in July, which was controversially cancelled when his opponent suffered injuries after he slipped in the shower.

The 30-year-old is now trained by former British, Commonwealth and European champion Jamie Moore.

MTK Global is run by Matthew Macklin, a former European middleweight champion who works as a boxing manager.

Frampton's targets include a third fight with Leo Santa Cruz after January's defeat by the Mexican.

"There was always the possibility that I could go my own way," added the 30-year-old.

"But to have someone on your side advising you and getting you the best deal possible is always important and I feel Matthew Macklin and MTK Global can definitely do that.

"It would be my dream come true to fight Leo Santa Cruz in the third fight at Windsor Park and beat him, that would be pretty perfect and ideal.

"Lee Selby is a potential fight that I want, Gary Russell Jnr, Abner Mares - these are the kind of names and calibre of fighters that I want to face at some point."
