Carl Frampton is Ready For a Belfast Showcase
By Terence Dooley
Barry McGuigan’s managerial charge Carl Frampton returns to Belfast on September the 18th; Ukraine’s Yuriy Voronin is coming over to fight the rising prospect at the Ulster Hall in order to gauge McGuigan’s charge’s potential. Frampton is 6-0 (3); the 23-year-old believes that Voronin, who recently lost to Scott Quigg and Joe Murray, is a perfect opponent for his first bill-topping contest.
“He’s a good experienced customer with plenty of ringcraft and there’s no doubt this is a big step-up for me,” declared Frampton when speaking to belfastmedia.com.
“Some people may look at it being only my seventh fight but I feel ready and even admit there is a wee bit of pressure on me to perform and the nerves will kick in as the fight night approaches. I got fantastic support in the King’s Hall on the Paul McCloskey [Giuseppe Lauri] undercard [a points win over Ian Bailey] and I’m looking to prove that I’m worthy of topping a bill in an historic venue like the Ulster Hall.”
