    With Hatton on the main and this as the co, the card is shaping up nicely. 3 more 50-50 fights and you've got a really strong main card.

    It's already a strong main card, Munroe/Quigg should be top of the bill :yep

    Just had look. Didn't know it had other British and Euro fights. Looks like a decent bill.

    yep

    to be fair hatton promotions seems to have served up a decent domestic undercard considering the main event itself is pretty much dependent in its domestic interest

    FWIW quigg for me, far too busy during the middle rounds to lose on the scorecards

    It was very evenly contested last time out, Quigg looked to operate moving laterally and looking to be economic with his work but hold high quality with his punch selection. Try to force Munroe to lead and fall out of position which a few times Rendall did.

    Munroe did start the first round well, dropped slightly in second but he now knows what Quigg will do. Quigg has accepted he's not going to out hustle and blast Munroe so it will be interesting to see what Munroe does.

    I felt Quigg boxed nicely in the second round but i'm not sure how long he can keep up that sort of plan. It's difficult, takes a lot of energy IMO to move and pick shots and evade shots. It's fighting totally different to the norm.

    Tough fight to call, May have to revist the fight again and see if there's any signs etc.

    Randall was fuming at the end of the last fight and if he loses he probably won't fight for a world title again, I just think the fire in his belly and his experience might see him through to a closely contested points victory. Excellent card in any case.

    Great card :happy
    This will be a night of high drama-well worth the £15 :yep
    I fancy Quigg on points in a war. I think he will start well with Rendal coming on strong in the later rounds - maybe putting Scott down/badly hurting him - just see Scott holding on :bbb

    First two rounds were interesting last time, Munroe took the first and Quigg came storming back and won the 2nd, was shaping up to be a belter.

    Looking forward to this more than the Hatton fight.

    Munroe on points makes sense.

    Interesting poll, totally even numbers on a Quigg/Munroe points win, yet Munroe is deemed the likelier to win by KO? I can't really pretend to understand that, although Quigg is hittable Munroe is certainly no banger!

    Munroe is good at what he does but he will never change at this point in his career the fact is if you have the skills you should be able to outbox him he is fit and strong but technically he isn't all that great

    Blimey mate you got every result covered here.

    I'm thinking Quigg, just stronger & more energy for me.
    Great undercard...what channel are we thinking?

    :lol:

    I have a sneaky feeling BoxNation will get it, Frank is actually trying to be nice to Hatton since he heard about his comeback :-(
