    Could have chased a mandatory but didn't. Tells you all you need to know.

    Quigg has repeatedly chased Frampton and all they do is make excuses.

    Only a complete f*cking idiot or a troll would criticise a fighter for taking his mandatory

    Frampton will fight Quigg and beat him easily.

    Avalon was mandatory and a more live oponent than anyone Quigg has beat.

    The only thing that made him a 'live' opponent was the fact he was breathing.

    Len, meant to type unification fight.

    Quigg trying to sell the fight was embarrassing. **** needs elocution lessons.

    TV could be a stumbling block if Frampton badly wants to stay on ITV. I also don't see Frampton/Quigg as a PPV yet- neither do I see it as selling out a major stadium.

    If it does happen it'll be in London and on Sky, but I see Frampton fighting a straightforward voluntary next just before the Summer.

    McGuigan is money orientated and will go where the money is at that particular time regarding networks.

    I wonder why I read these boards when posters criticise fighters for taking a mandatory, call any fight that's not a unification fight a cherry pick, call any top contender a tomato can, and then you have utter morons slagging off Frampton when they don't even know what division he's in. Is there a boxing forum that's not full of idiots?

    Frampton performed well. Quigg needs to recognise the A side and stop trying to take an unfair cut.

    Stop talking out your **** and give your mouth a chance.

    Frampton vs Quigg is the biggest pay day for either fighter, why should Quigg take the paupers cut ?

    It takes two to tango.

    Frampton isn't making that kind of money against anybody else, Rigo included.

    Him and Barry should get off their high horse and lose the superiority complex.

    Quigg is an absolute joker asking for a 50/50 split.
    Ravenhill (Ulster Rugby's ground) holds near 20k. It would be amazing for a summer showdown

    Let's be very very clear here. We are NOT talking about a unification bout. This is Carl giving Scott a chance to fight for Carls title. Carl is the bigger star, the bigger draw, the bigger everything here. Frampton is the A-side here. As long as Quigg realises this everything will be fine. Nobody gets hurt...except for Scott on the night, of course....:hey. :yep. :hat

    Hush your mouth, idiot.

    Quigg brings NOTHING to the table in terms of followers or revenue.

    Do tell me - when are Bury council building an arena for Quigg to fight in?

    Quigg doesn't even have a big profile on sky.

    The man is literally the thickest Boxer in the UK. Asking for a 50/50 is beyond stupid.
