I saw this recently. Didn't do much for me to be honest.

What I don't understand is how the McGuigans are not deemed as having a conflict of interest given they promote and manage Frampton. This was rightfully a big issue when Don King promoted boxers were being managed by his son Carl. What am I missing?

What am I missing?
Barry's tender fatherly concern for Frampton which surpasses any boxer-promoter relationship ever?
