Scott Quigg reckons still living at home with his parents is the ideal preparation for his title unification bout with Carl Frampton.
Quigg unashamedly still lives with his parents Kenny and Lynsay in a two-bedroom, terraced house in Bury where he grew up. The WBA super bantamweight champion confessed to the Mirror that he had no desire to change his living situation before throwing down with Frampton.
“Why change something now? I don’t want to have to go and get my own shopping.”
“It sounds stupid, but I can get out of bed and walk back in my room five minutes later and my mum’s been in and made it. All I have to do is concentrate on boxing.”
The English pugilist has a very close relationship with his Mum, who sounds like his biggest fan who’s seen the least amount of him actually fighting.
“My mum Lynsay is my best mate. She goes to all the fights, but she’ll be sitting in the lower tier with her hands over her eyes. She won’t watch.”“She knows how much I train and the work I put in. She knows what I do and yet she’s still worried sick because she knows how much it means to me. If she wasn’t that close to me, wasn’t my best mate and didn’t see what I put into training, she’d be even more worried.”
Quigg v Frampton is scheduled to go down on 27 February at the Manchester Arena.
