Carl Frampton: My Autobiography Frampton Carl
Belfast's Carl ' the Jackal' Frampton MBE is no ordinary boxer. But Frampton's popularity far exceeds the traditional adulation for a sporting icon. One of only three fighters from the British Isles to be named the Ring Magazine Fighter of the Year, he has headlined multiple sell-out world championship bouts, with thousands of supporters flocking to be ringside.
Raised in the fiercely Loyalist Tiger's Bay in north Belfast, he narrowly escaped being consumed by the paramilitary culture there. He is regarded as a symbol of hope and unity by both sides of the sectarian divide in Northern Ireland. Instead he embraced boxing.
His ascent was rapid, and when Carl met Barry McGuigan, it seemed like a match made in heaven. While initially lucrative, their relationship turned sour and ended up in the courts. Despite emerging from the legal battle the winning party, Frampton kept his own counsel.
