    That's not a bad shout...maybe even Kid Galahad?

    I think it'll be 2 out of:

    Scott Quigg - (almost a certainty)
    Chris Eubanks Jr
    Haroon Khan
    Kid Galahad

    the last major signing was Richard Keys. So I am thinking Carol Vorderman. They have done some work before.

    In the current climate any boxer with prospects should avoid Frank at all costs.

    no prospect should sign with Frank he doesn't put on enough shows atm for them to get the fights they need. a Quigg level fighter could sign since Frank seems to be able to manoeuvre fighters into getting world titles.

    Is Quigg trained by Gallagher?

    Not sure Gallagher would be in full support given the amount of times Stephen Smith has been ****ed about.

    Best of luck to Quigg though, if frank can put on shows again then great.

    :deal Quigg would be stupid to sign with him, he only has to look at both a fair few of his gym mates like ste and liam.

    Quigg would be a great signing for FW and it would be a decent move by Scott career-wise

    It's true FW is shite for any prospects to sign for because he doesn't get them out often enough and when he does it's usually in awful fights where they don't learn anything. At this point in his career though it would be alright Scott to do.

    Quigg just needs a television platform BADLY like all Hatton fighters. He's stagnating and it's a shame because he's such a clever fighter with a bright future. A move to Matchroom would be the best thing for any UK fighter at the moment but it seems they've got a full roster now. I'll just be glad that he'll be on BoxNation so we can see him.

    Allegedly needs to get him a solid Euro/fringe-world class opponent for May or June just so he can get back into the swing of things. Hopefully by late summer he can challenge for some sort of world title.

    JUST GET HIM FIGHTING REGULAR AND ON TV FFS!

    First of all, I don't think Quigg is out of contract and I don't think he could get out of his contract in the same way Bellew, DeGale, Groves, Burns were able to.

    Secondly, Scott Quigg still needs to fight regularly, and still needs to learn things. Frank has shown he is not capable of having even his top fighters in regular competition. Stephen Smith & Liam Smith, both title holders with a decent following that are unable to secure regular fights.

    If Quigg became a free agent. Top Rank, Goldenboy or Matchroom. All capable of getting him big fights and paying him well.

    This is the point I was thinking of when Quigg was mentioned earlier in the thread.

    He trains alongside several Frank fighters who just aren't getting the dates they need, so if Quigg is thinking of a stable change, surely he'd know that moving to Frank wouldn't necessarily change his predicament? There is only one British promoter who keeps his fighters as active as they should be, from world level to prospects, and that's Hearn. I can't see a fighter like Quigg jumping ship to another promoter who can't fulfill promises. Others in his gym, including Gallagher, will likely make him aware of that too.

    They have all been pretty vocal about it.

    If your a trainer and you have a prospect working with Hearn right now you are in dreamland. Who were the last top line prospects to be handled the way Cardle, Yafai & Smith have been in the past year?
