    Very possible indeed my friend.Which makes you wonder what the hell the McGuigans are playing at.They either do not share your confidence or worse still they are denying there fighter the largest payday there is simply because they dont like Hearn.Madness complete and utter madness.

    look at the constant lineup of Swift leftovers - herrera (from Provo) a consensus loss for Danny; Rod Salka -some ones leftover LOL; Lamont - a leftover from Lucas and another consensus loss. See, you never know right...:rofl

    Why does Frampton care if Quigg takes home more than £1.5m? Is he going to enjoy his new four-bed house and Merc less because Quigg got a five-bed house and a Ferrari? These kids forget where they came from awfully quick.

    I find it quite disgusting how egos and squabbling over money are used as an excuse here (and in many other cases in boxing). Yes Frampton is the draw but Matchroom have the money. Frampton wins this fight but he's being poorly advised here.

    It's egos indeed, and pretty damn stupid too.

    He and Quigg both know that it means that the lesser boxer gets more money out of this deal, and maybe even significantly more money. That's also the reason Quigg won't accept the 60/40 that Frampton wants.
    But that's just how it works. Haymon fighters get overpaid too, sometimes for fighting stiffs, sometimes for fighting much better boxers as themselves.

    Now there's a very big chance Quigg's worth drops in his coming fight, if he isn't impressive or even loses to Kiko. And then what does Frampie have to show for it?!

    McQuigan was being a prima-donna d1ck last time I checked. Saying F|loyd-type of **** "he needs to accept he's not the draw", "he needs to raise his profile"....

    Since Quigg vs Frampton is the UK's answer to Mayweather vs Pacquiao in terms of getting a deal done, I guess we'll have to wait four years for it to happen.

    You write the very wise words. The problem my friend is that the two Mr McGuigans have foolishly allowed there dislike of Mr Hearn to cloud there judgement and ruin the prime of there greatest asset Mr Frampton. This is exactly why some boxers make terrible managers. The fire and the hate are great motivators when one is experiencing gruelling training camps but a calm rational head is required when negotiation business matters.

    I am sure Mr Frampton would take this fight without any hesitation. Alas he is listening to people who are clearly not capable of removing there own emotions from any advice they give.

    Frampton clearly isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer and is getting horrid advice from the stubborn McGuigans.The McGuigans cannot compete financially with Hearn and their jealousy and hatred is costing Frampton the opportunity of a lifetime in terms of money.Frampton has been talked into fighting lesser opponents for a fraction of this huge payday and it may be gone forever.Never underestimate the stupidity of the human being-in this case,Frampton.
