โWe have a number of options on the table and we have our mandatory, Shingo Wake, a good fighter, southpaw, a tall, rangy southpaw, tough as hell,โ said Frampton’s manager Barry McGuigan. โThen of course thereโs the Quigg fight. I think the ball is back in their court. We told them it wouldnโt be a unification. They donโt recognise him as being number one in the division in the WBA therefore itโs not going to be getting the unification tag. Itโs a voluntary defence for Carl. Iโm sure the IBF will rate him but heโll have to vacate that title.โ
โThe decision will be imminent,โ Barry continued. โItโs a stand alone pay-per-view. Itโll be embellished with lots of others if it happens.โ
London would be the most likely location for Frampton-Quigg. โI think thatโs the fairest place to have it. Weโre six hundred miles away from where we live, heโs about 250. I think itโs the fairest. It would be unfair for us to have to travel to Manchester. The bottom line is we have the valid title, itโll be for our title, weโre coming to England, weโd expect it to be a neutral venue.โ
If the Quigg fight cannot be made, Frampton’s team are also looking at options to box again in America.
