'It's sad for the fans because we wanted it to happen,' 'Carl was willing to travel to England to put his title on the line, and when the champion does that he normally gets the majority of the purse.' 'Carl is a valid champion. Scott Quigg is the WBA's 'regular' champion, not the real champion, which is Guillermo Rigondeaux.'
The lack of a unification fight will disappoint a number of Frampton's fans who packed out the Odessy arena last month for his latest title defence.
McGuigan explained that they wanted more of the purse because Frampton was a man who could sell more tickets than Quigg,
'Carl has drawn crowds of 16,000 in Belfast. I don't want to be rude to Scott Quigg, but he's never headlined a show. We wanted a minimum of 60-40, not the winner takes 60-40 because that's unfair on the fighters.'
