That hotel must have been filled to the brim with cotton socks.

it shows you just how hard the McGuigan family were working on Frampton's behalf mate

the hallmark of pure graft mate, cotton socks littering the hallways

which was lucky for Frampton's sparring partner who got turfed out of his room onto the corridor, he made himself a makeshift camp bed and blankets from all the discarded socks.

Over 40 hotel rooms ffs. Probably the presidential suite as well. Meanwhile the sparring partner is kipping in the hallway you couldn’t make it up.

Scott Harrison was in town.

Tbh I found McGuigan being party to a sparring partner being treated like trash to be particularly damning.

A sparring partner had to sleep on the floor in a hall way to make room for members of the McGuigan family when they arrived stateside it was alleged. McGuigan didn’t deny that was the case but suggested it wasn’t an uncommon occurance.



I imagine sparring partners will be booking their own rooms from now on then. mind you, sounds like they're all used to being turfed out into the corridor, according to Bazza

I think with Bazza he’s not just any former fighter but a former world champion. He treats those he deems beneath him as scum. I’ve never met him but I used to be a big fan. Whenever I’ve mentioned him to anyone whose met him or dealt with him, he gets bad press.

Honestly it’s a shite game the boxing mate. Hard on its participants.

My mates unbeaten as a pro and was fairly touted as an amateur and he hates the game. The stuff he’s told me would make u sick.

In business, you are completely alone, and professional boxing more than any other sport forces its participants to be businessmen.

If this allegation is true, it makes Bazza's efforts towards establishing a fighter's union all those years ago seem particularly cynical.

Maybe he paid Carl in white cotton socks ??

If so he should consider himself lucky. They meant a lot to Bazza and his family.

I know of one sparring partner who travelled down to London and they had a whip around and gave him £20 for the spar

Sounds odd but surely the hotel thing was the eve before/after the fight - Why on earth would you have sparring partners on hand then? It must have been a thank-you (as back-handed as it was)? Turfing him out the ultimate F-you.

He must have been in the corridor in a house. It wouldn’t work in a hotel like.

It would if your group has blown 20 large ones on rooms alone that night.

My mates just sparred a world champion for a week and was very well treated. So some folk are decent at least.
