Good win for Tommy Mc Carthy last night.

[HiMucker]

Decent enough fight. Usyk comfortable enough winner Chisora never hurt him at any point. Sky bias on the other hand 🙄

I'd love to see Usyk dominate the heavyweights but size looks to be the problem.

Anyone see the Davis KO of Santa Cruz? Brutal uppercut. It was lights out before he hit the canvas.

Frampton v McGuigan case settled - all confidential.

Seems the settlement has come about after 10k emails were found on McGuigans compute that had previously thought deleted.

I had read somewhere though that Framptons solicitor had not wanted the emails included in the court case.

Strange

Yeah I thought I read that too, both parties I assume will class it as a "win"

Hope Frampton gets well compensated out of it.

Barry McGuigan is an absolute tosser.

[Taylor]

Frampton has said he is very happy with the outcome.

10k deleted emails to 'free up space' sounded dodgy and now they have been recovered (and some gone through) the case is finished.

Some waste of money paying solicitors

[imtommygunn]

What a bunch of crooks. That's ridiculous.

[Milltown Row2]

Was hoping to find out more soon enough... embarrassing stuff

[imtommygunn]

I imagine it'll be tied up in terms of what can be said. It's both hilarious and disgusting at the same time

[screenexile]

Sounds like McGuigan was found out you'd have thought he'd know better after what happened with Eastwood.

I like Frampton glad he got sorted!

That'll be the McGuigans/Cyclone done with promoting I would think. Now that Josh Taylor has gone too have they any one of note left in their stable? Who in their right mind would even sign for them?

[nrico2006]

Dunno if they do promoting now. Shane coaches Okolie, Fowler, Campbell and a few others but think they are maybe ties to Matchroom.

I am sure there would be takers but would they be of quality?  I think it has been said before, but Shane should cut ties.  He seems to be a talented enough coach in his own right.

[square_ball]

Shane is a top quality trainer. Interestingly he was announced as trainer and manager of Fowler but there was no mention of Cyclone, Barry or any of the brothers. Maybe he's cutting links with them in case a Frampton/Taylor fallout happens again.

[Taylor]

Would agree that Shane is a quality trainer who would do much better without the Cyclone baggage.

Problem is now he will be continually associated with them unless he comes out and publicly splits.

Has wee Barry declared himself bankrupt yet so that Frampton doesnt get a penny?
