    DeGale is more well known because the SMW division is much more fashionable in this country and because of the Groves fight. Fat Mick and channel 5 sent DeGale's career backwards.

    Fury doesn't shift tickets which is why the Chisora fight was cancelled. We all know it. He is well known, more for his antics than his career, but he can't sell a ticket to save his lift. There were 17 undercard fights on his bill which says it all.

    Mick can make all the offers he likes, he does it knowing they won't happen as Quigg is a Sky fighter. I don't hear Mick saying that he's happy for Galahad to fight on Sky, do you?

    degale is most well known thanks to his olympic gold, not a fight only the hardcore followed. before froch groves wasn't a name.

    as for fury, all the conspiracy theories in the world don't change the fact he sells more than quigg. and his boxnation deal does suggest fat mick's happy to let his fighters appear on rival channels if the money is right. although galahad quigg would do much better on 5 than sky, unless you live in a parallel universe.

    He's a world champion who fights on Sky.

    Lots is the answer you are looking for.

    He's not a world champion.

    Because he fights on sky? What fan base has he got? How many tickets does he sell? And he's hardly as popular than Frampton. And he's been on Sky basically his whole career, and he's still a nobody.

    So, what does Quigg bring to the table?

    Yes he is. The fact you can't accept that is why you're a waste of oxygen.

    So what's Rigo then? Quigg's "belt" may as well be just that, a belt.

    Sham.

    In theory, you can only have one world champ if you go down that road and as McGuigan has made it clear Carl is scared to face Rigo, I'm sure you'd agree that Carl's "belt" may as well be just that, a belt.

    There's nothing to reply to.

    DeGale's medal was 6 years ago. He's not thought of in the same way as Audley in that respect and Audley won his years before.

    If him winning the medal was such a big thing for his publicity why can't he sell out small shopping centres?

    Fury's a HW. Of course he will outsell Quigg. How many SBW's in this country could outsell Fury?

    Do you think Mick has that much say in Tyson's career? Dream on. I don't know the intricacies of the contract, but he very much calls the shot. Mick was probably delighted to allow FW take over for the short term whilst he counts the cash with his fat fingers.

    In what world would Quigg - Galahad do better on 5? I assume you can only mean viewing figures.

    It's a legit IBF belt the same as Rigo has the legit WBA belt. Quigg's belt mean's nothing.

    But we dont just have one world champion but each organisation has their own real champion. One of which Carl is.

    So what does Quigg bring to the table other than a stutter?

    Quigg brings a big pay day and sky box office

    He also beats frampton hence why frampton team don't want the fight
