    Rumour has it, Team Frampton have said they will not fight (yawn) if a certain un-named Commentator is to be used tomorrow night after "disrespectful remarks" made on twitter...

    Any idea who?? Surely not Big Johnny?? :-(

    Frampton has made negative comments about Halling before?

    Sky are coming across as biased but they are also the paymasters. Unless Frampton have it in the contract I can't see them backing down

    Seems high risk. Is Frampton really prepared to forfeit the fight, payday and likely the belt (no doubt Sky and Matchroom would exert influence)

    i find ironic that this sub section has complained about sky commentary for as long as i can remember...

    But when Frampton does......

    I can't see on Twitter where Johnny has disrespected Frampton, he has actually tipped Carl to win early.

    Unless it's in the contract they won't change the commentator- it's of no real consequence to Carl.

    If Sky wanted to change the commentator they could however- Andy Scott or Adam Smith.

    Don't blame Frampton and his team. The sky agenda has been in full force throughout this build up. Really biased towards Quigg when pundits, commentators etc should be as neutral as possible. Don't blame team Frampton for wanting an American ref and judges too.

    Just look at Froch v Groves I. British referees are ****e and the judges are ****e too.

    Halling is awful, shouldn't be anywhere near a microphone when it comes to boxing.

    If it is Halling they are complaining about then nobody should be upset about it, Frampton is doing boxing fans a favour.
     
  15. Quigg's not the one who sent back tickets. :lol:
