    Hearn is a promoter, nothing else. Mcguigan ****ed up here by playing the prima donna card as Frmpton would almost certainly beat Quigg and they could have moved on to even bigger money.

      I don't know who's responsible for what. Maybe Mcguigan, maybe others too. Hearn can be a d1ck but he's also developed a lucrative opportunity that would othwise not exist. Frampton/Mcguigan et al underestimate Hearn's role and how much they need Quigg to make this money. It's pure greed and very foolish, especially given that Frampton would have easily won.

        Quigg is the clear B side here (he's not even a real world champion.) A 60-40 split sounds about right.

          How is 60/40 to the winner fair? Has Eddie Hearn ever brokered such a deal before? No....and the only reason he's trying to do that is because he's getting greedy and wants to chance his arm at getting that 60%.

          Frampton would be fighting in Manchester on a Matchroom show where a "win" isn't always a win.

          Frampton has the real world title and is the name. He is entitled to the bigger share of the purse from the outset.

            You're correct Quigg is the B side, but this isn't just about Frampton & Quigg. Quigg's Hearn's boy and Hearn brings the big payday because he's the one with the financial backing and Sky. It's naïve to think these big pay fights are just about the boxers. They have more to do with the backing than anything else.

            The bottom line is this: Frampton would get the biggest payday of his career so far by taking either of Hearn's offers. He'd win too, so it was a ****** move by team Frampton.

              No he is not the real world champ, 50/50 is what is fair, none of them are champions and quigg have as many fans as frampton, if it was that easy why they didn't sign and have a huge payday, a some sort name and an easy fight?

                Carl Frampton is the IBF Super Bantamweight Champion. I never said he was the lineal champion. Sensitive ass Rigotards

                Quigg doesn't have as many fans as Frampton. You have no ***ing clue what you're talking about.

                  Frampton's got more fans ... wooo hoooo! You sound like a child. So what? He's got no financial backing, just idiots like you saying what he "deserves". He deserves nothing unless he can make it happen, which, obviously, he can't.

                  Even with decades in the business McGuigan can't find a businessman to finance an offer to Quigg. Hearn may be full of **** but at least he's put an offer on the table instead of blowing hot air.

                    He's the draw in the fight. That's what dictates who gets the greater share of the money since Frampton's fans will help fill the MEN Arena that Quigg calls "home" and Frampton's fans will buy the PPV on Sky Box Office. That's "so what" you mong.

                    It was a publicity stunt not a serious offer.

                      What fight? There is no fight without Hearn's money.
