Good news for Frampton, not sure it is the best news for fans though....Frampton on PBC in the US rather than arenas in UK & I Unless Haymon intends to put his other fighters on an undercard in Belfast - doubt it but could be first move into Hearn's territory? Wonder if he has a clause in the contract "regardless of the financial opportunity, no fight will be made with Scott Quigg under any circumstances. Failure to adhere to this will mean losing face and contributing to the success of Matchroom and pride cannot allow either of those things happen. PS - I would beat him though"
Regardless of this recent news - turning down £1,500,000 for Quigg was a bad move. I cant see how it was otherwise.
I wonder will he be based more in America now. His style would go down great over there, and could make him a big hit.
McGuigan just cannot compete with matchroom nor offer Frampton any serious money-hence he reaches overseas and grabs Haymon.This was his last resort or he would have a hard time explaining why he shot down a million and half for Carl and his family.Barry coming off like a spoiled and incompetent "manager".He is a joke and Haymon will call the shots from here on in.
Interesting to see how this affects his TV situation- I'd imagine he'll fight in the US more on PBC cards. Alternatively Haymon could be trying to set up shop here- ITV are open to time buying and the PBC series has largely been a success so far. Interesting times ahead.
