    @timthejab @boxingnewsed @flintoff11 gives him a chance for 2013? Very bad form Boxing News #Disappointing


    3h Boxing News ‏@BoxingNewsED
    @ClonesCyclone Maybe an oversight on some fronts, maybe opinion on others. Either way, Carl with have his say in the ring, no doubt.


    3h Barry McGuigan ‏@ClonesCyclone
    @BoxingNewsED Tris, no oversight you've not given him the credit he deserves throughout his professional career #NoSupport

    3h Boxing News ‏@BoxingNewsED
    @ClonesCyclone That's not fair. He's been a Hot Prospect, had a big feature, been on the cover at least once - all within 15 pro fights.

    3h Barry McGuigan ‏@ClonesCyclone
    @BoxingNewsED Go back and analyse the reports on his fights. As his manager Im telling you I have been disappointed with your support.

    @ClonesCyclone That's great, Barry. That's your job as a manager. But I believe we have been fair. And we are not here to 'support'/favour..


    3h Boxing News ‏@BoxingNewsED
    @ClonesCyclone ..fighters. We tell their stories, let them tell them and honestly critique fights. Carl's story has been well told by BN.


    3h Barry McGuigan ‏@ClonesCyclone
    @BoxingNewsED Tris, we'll agree to disagree.


    3h Boxing News ‏@BoxingNewsED
    @ClonesCyclone Agreed.

    Was Quigg in as one to watch in 2013?

    Hardly a hissy fit by any standard.

    Obviously BN are never going to rate Frampton as highly as McGuigan does

    Frampton's mum probably doesn't rate him as highly as McGuigan does.

    True

    Be honest though you'd love to have a manager/advisor who was that much in your favour, must give Carl such a boost

    Barry comes across like a Bully at times.

    Bit daft from Barry, not everyone has to rate his fighter as highly as he does.

    This is EXACTLY why I dislike McGuigan and I haven't really got behind Frampton yet. Barry McGuigan is ****ing annoying and a sensitive little ******* when it comes to Frampton. He bites people's heads off when they don't suck Carl's **** like he does.

    Tris Dixon got it spot on, it's not his and Boxing News' job to tell people how great Frampton is, they just report on his fights. Wind your neck in Barry.

    But it IS Barry's job to look out for and push his fighter. If only more managers were as passionate for their men, the standards in the industry would be a lot better.

    You shouldn't hold it against Frampton for Mcguigans actions...

    I know mate but it's really hard to support anyone when they're hanging around with someone who's acting the ***** that Barry is. Part of me wants Frampton to fail purely just to laugh at McGuigan and so he'll shut up.

    Carl needs to tell Barry to calm down a bit, it's fine him being vocal in his support of Frampton but going mad at people just cause they're not on board the Frampton train yet is really ****y.

    LOL, FFS! Where's the hissy fit?

    This is more like what I'd call a hissy fit! McGuigan said very little, and LOL at the reactions on here!...sometimes I read **** on the british forum, and think it could have easily been written by a woman, on her period!
