Frampton to jump ship?

Post by earsjohn »

irish-boxing.com are reporting that Carl has left Hearn to sign with W@rren!

Big news if true - I though Carl was developing nicely and becoming a bit of a star on Sky. Wonder if this will bring the quigg fight closer or make it less likely.

Great signing for BN. Hopefully it does bring the Quigg fight closer.

Why would it bring the fight closer? Hearn wanted that fight badly, said so repeatedly in his last interview.

Can't understand the move personally, can't see where it benefits Quiggs career moving forward. Still its a great move for allegedly (if true)!

I don't know why it would bring it closer, I just hope that it does.

:TU: we all hope it does. Personally I can't help but feel that the Mcguigans don't want it, because Hearn was all for the fight - mentioned that the Frampton team were 'looking at world title options' in his last interview, maybe that's where the problems started.

As long as I get to see Quigg v Frampton, I am happy enough!

Terrible move from Mc Guigan. He has no stable to put on a half decent undercard or TV deal that could do well in the Odyssey arena.

Sounds from the statement like McGuigan is getting a bit greedy. Hope it turns out as the right move for Frampton and not just McGuigan.

BJ Saunders is fighting Gary O'Sullivan. What happened to the (was never going to happen) John Ryder fight? Who officially pulled out of that one?

Wow...Frampton jumps from Eddie to Fwankie. It'll be interesting to see and hear Eddie's reaction to Carl Frampton in the future because we're so used to fighters being slated by Fwankie when they jump ship the other way.

I'll watch this with interest because I always got the impression that Frampton was a particular favourite of Matchroom and Sky and he looked to be going places.

Maybe the King isn't dead after all...?!

It seems a peculiar move from Frampton. He's had decent coverage for his good wins over Martinez and Molitor and now he's taking on TBA (to be replaced by TBC in the week of the fight no doubt). Two steps forward and one step back, IMO.

From the release it sounds like Matchroom let them go due to McGuigan wanting to be co-promoter.

The Quigg fight as far as I'm concerned is now further in the distance.
Hatton and Wazza working on a Co Production ? Can't see it.
If that was to happen surely it would have happened before now with the lack of a TV deal for Ricky.
If the reason is genuinely Hearn's concern over McGuigan's dual role Manager / Co Promotor then you have to applaud him.
Thought boxing was about fighters not the entourage.

I disagree. I think FW and Hattons relationship has mellowed somewhat over the last few years and they'd be willing to work together. Particularily with Hatton not having a broadcase partner at the moment.
