CARL FRAMPTON’S well-publicised fallout with the McGuigan boxing family, and subsequent bitter court case he brought against them back in 2020, has again hit the headlines.

It comes in the wake of the publication of the former and now retired world champion’s autobiography this past week. Simply titled My Autobiography, Frampton’s version of the acrimonious split and legal battle he fought against his former manager, promoter and trainer takes up a lot of space.

In the flurry of media appearances and interviews undertaken to promote the book, Frampton — known as The Jackal during his long and very successful ring career — did not hold back in his withering criticisms of Barry McGuigan and his family, to the point where he appears determined to ensure their reputations are shredded and left in the gutter.
