Quigg: The look on McGuigan’s face when I beat Frampton will be payment enough
SCOTT Quigg says money couldn’t buy the satisfaction he would get from upsetting Barry McGuigan by beating Carl Frampton in the Summer.
Post Frampton’s extremely impressive title defence on Saturday night the Irish Boxing legend warned Quigg against pricing himself out of a fight that could propel him to super stardom.
The Matchroom fighter admits he is content to collect a big pay day after what will most likely be a stadium fight, but claims the look on McGuigan’s face when ‘The Jackal’ is dethroned would prove payment enough.
āThatās a bonus,ā he told the Guardian when asked about all things money. āWhat means more to me is seeing a picture of McGuiganās face when I beat his fighter. The look on his face money couldnāt buy.ā
Having seen Frampton destroy his mandatory challenger and a puncher some suggest is better that Quigg, theWBA Regular champion would be forgive for avoiding the Belfast star, but he remains keen to get it on.
āThereās no calling anybody out. If they want that fight, Iām ready for it. For me, itās the biggest fight in British boxing.”
“I 100% believe Iāll beat him and heāll say the same ā and thatās what will make a great fight,” he added before praising the Frampton’s support and his performance against Chris Avalos.
āThe atmosphere was fantastic. The Irish are boxing people. They know and appreciate the sport.”
“āHe boxed well, kept calm. As long as he kept his cool it was only a matter of time before Avalos started getting reckless and overconfident. When he started doing that Carl picked the right shots. You couldnāt argue with the stoppage. He boxed well.ā
