Frank Warrén Says Door is Wide Open For Scott Quigg To Join
Promoter Frank Warrén has invited Scott Quigg to compete with fellow featherweights Carl Frampton, Josh Warrington and Lee Selby next year.
Quigg worked as a pundit for BT Sport during Frampton's homecoming in Belfast, and when asked in an interview on the brand new Box-Nation Podcast about where the Bury boxer fits into the Featherweight division, Warrén invited Quigg into the mix.
"Scott, if you've not got a promotional contract, come and join the party! Come over with us, it's where it's happening. You'd be a great addition to what we're doing. He's a lovely lad and he can be part of that," Warrén told Steve Lillis.
After the fight, Quigg admitted that he would love a rematch with Frampton: "Listen, I'm always going to want that rematch. The only thing I can do is keep working on me, keep winning and hopefully it happens."
Warrén also reflected on Frampton's return to winning ways.
"Let's put it into perspective. First of all, he's been out the ring for 10 months," he argued. "He had a big problem with the fight that never happened [in the summer], and all the stuff that went around that."
Leeds Featherweight Warrington was also ringside, as he prepares to take on Selby next year, with the winner potentially in line to face Frampton at Windsor Park. Warren believes it is an exciting time in Britain in the 126lbs division.
"We've got this situation with the featherweights. Josh Warrington is on board. Lee Selby boxes on the 9th of December at the Copper Box in London. [If] he comes through his fight, he's got his mandatory defence against Josh. That'll take place in late April," revealed Warrén.

I thought it was sounding pretty much a given,

What's happened to his relationship with Matchroom?
Re: Frank Warrén Says Door is Wide Open For Scott Quigg To Join
Quigg will take offer imo
Re: Frank Warrén Says Door is Wide Open For Scott Quigg To Join
Quigg / Warrington wouldn't be a bad fight, Selby is in the stable now. Wouldn't be a bad move for him to jump ship.

I think Selby is in the same boat as DeGale; they're appearing on a Warren show as a one-off and aren't actually attached to any promoter at the minute.
DeGale was on a domestic contract with Matchroom and Haymon for the US shows I believe.

Quigg doesn't come across that intelligent, but when it comes to business and boxing he is very switched on - he will know what promoter will work the best for him.
I'm a big fan of Eddie, I think he has made boxing a sport many people talk about now and I do like his shows - obviously there is the PPV issue, but for Quigg and the fights he wants, I think he will be better off with Frank.
I expect Scott to move promoters and I wouldn't be surprised at all if we see either Frampton v Quigg II or Quigg v Warrington next year.
It would be amazing if Frank done a show like: Frampton v Selby Headlining the show, with Quigg v Warrington as chief support - the winners face each other.
