    Munroe won a eliminator for the english super feather title last weekend. He tweeted that at the start of fight week he weighed 9st 1 and only 9st3 at the weigh-in. So he cud make feather quite easy with the right notice. Wud b a good step up for selby sud he beat walsh which imo will b a tricky fight but I expect him to win

    thanks, i will add my own punctuation....!

    i think Munroe has kinda given up his boxing dreams,will still be very good move up for Selby though.

    He was ranked as a lightweight at one point this year, i dont think he knows what he wants only a couple of year ago, he said he was moving down to bantamweight then up to lightweight, won a fight for a title at super-feather but now hes a featherweight?

    No he won a eliminator at sf not a title. That was his intended weight the come back fight was made at light weight just to get him in the ring b4 close season. But with an offer of a european title shot he wud b mad not to consider it and if he can make the weight and stay strong he wud b mad not to take it.( Great chance and pay day.)

    Quigg smashed the body of monroe so if their is a stoppage I'd back that for selby. Munroe has a good chin. He cud cause selby some problems but I fancy a selby victory.

    The lowest his boxed is super ban and the lightest his weighed is 8st 8 and that was against kiko for european title. Also he weighed the same wen he fought for a world title so I was right 4 weights in his career

    I thought he said he was finished after the quigg thumping, said he couldn't get motivated for the rematch when he got koed so if that was the case he was either lying and making excuses or if it was true he shouldn't be in there and the likes of selby will do the same
