Quotes from Carl Frampton

In Tiger's Bay I saw trouble I shouldn't have seen. But 95% of the people there are good and they're coming out to support me - just like in New Lodge which is the opposition or whatever you want to call it.

There's not a better sporting spectacle than an evenly-matched fight.

As a kid I could be in New Lodge in a minute. I'd go down our street, turn right and I was there.

In boxing we're allowed to come togethwe. Protestants and Catholics, the north and south, everyone. I'm in an Irish vest, even on a mural in Tiger's Bay, because boxing brings the communities together.
