Really? I'd be surprised if it ended up that way.

Joe did make an interesting comment I saw in an interview today- he said that Carl didnt sell his full allocation of tickets and returned some to Hearn.
I would say that's more to do with the price of them, plus hotels flights etc on top, not a cheap weekend, costing me a fortune

Na I can understand that. I think Joe was trying to say that Carl wasnt this massive ticket seller he said Carl liked to make himself out to be.

That's a fair point regarding ticket prices, hotels, flights, etc, but what about the sheer number of people that used to go out to Vegas/US generally to watch Hatton?

Hatton had a lot of sky exposure tbf, and had beaten a legend,and was now going to fight another one with real belief he could beat him (sky hype). Also where would you rather go ?;Manchester or Vegas lol, Frampton has big support at home but maybe if he wins on sat he'll get a few more on board,don't think any British fighter had the fan base of Hatton, maybe Joe C.

How does Gallagher get his guys doing the weight so well, Callum Smith is a monster at 168. .
Perhaps he's bought some new scales since Paul Smith turned up looking like Bluto for the Andre Ward fight.

He was bullshitting like usual, apparently Frampton was supposed to get 4,500 and they only sent 2,300 to his Dad who was selling them for him, all gone in no time. Considering the number of Frampton fans still looking for tickets there's no chance he didn't sell them, a few even went and got them from Quigg.

Delay in today's press conference can you believe that they are arguing about dressing rooms apparently, Frampton says he wants the best dressing room which apparently is the one Quigg always uses, they won't start the press conference until this matter is cleared up. You really could not make it up.

Hopefully Quigg stands his ground, good luck explaining the fight being off cause you can't have the dressing room you want.

This dressing room rubbish shows Frampton to be a little rattled I think.

"Contractually I'm the A side I want the dressing room Scott wants... I'm the ace here, I'm first on the bill and walking out second so I'm entitled to it. But I don't care."

Yep, sounds like someone who doesn't care.

Hasn't Carl said they should lock that dressing room and both use different ones?

The Boxing News is very informative on the bout, Q&A with Gallagher and McGuigan, Quigg and Frampton and an in depth preview. Well worth buying and reading.

I'm now leaning towards a Quigg win, I think Frampton is tight at the weight, hence his poor showing last time out.

So? He could just not be such a massive egotist and let Quigg use his regular dressing room, it's just mind games but Framoton comes across extremely insecure trying stuff like this.

:lol: at Carl calling Eddie a lanky c**t for touching him when splitting them up. Whole press conference was like a group of school kids arguing.
