Carl Frampton Signs With MTK Global
Carl Frampton has a signed a deal with MTK Global.
Both parties announced the deal today on Twitter.
“MTK are a relatively new organisation and recently celebrated their fifth anniversary. But if you look at what they have already done, they have big-name fighters like Billy Joe Saunders and recruited a lot of boxers from Ireland and I feel that they can get me the best deal with a promoter. There was always the possibility that I could go my own way, but to have someone on your side advising you and getting you the best deal possible is always important and I feel Matthew Macklin and MTK Global can definitely do that,” commented Frampton on MTK’s website.
Here’s are the announcements.

Frampton will get some new stablemates that are already well established in the British boxing scene.
Hughie Fury, Billy Joe Saunders, Liam ‘Beefy’ Smith, and Michael Conlan to name a few are also a part of MTK Global.
Frampton has a couple of opponents in mind that he would like to eventually fight.
That would be the dream come true to fight Leo [Santa Cruz] in the third fight at Windsor Park and beat him, that would be pretty perfect and ideal. That’s an objective of mine to fight at Windsor one day and that’s what I want to do and hopefully, it will happen,” said Frampton.
“Lee Selby is a potential fight that I want, Gary Russell Jnr, Abner Mares these are the kind of names and calibre of fighters that I want to face at some point. All of them would be difficult fights in their own right and I’m hoping with MTK now we can get the right fights and the right promotional deal.”
