    Can Million Dollar Crolla defeat Perez on the Quigg/ Martinez card and win a world title. Discuss.

    I really hope so but I fear not.

    Yeah. I think Perez might be too much but I still give Crolla a chance. I like his chances more than I did v Abril anyway (and it will be a better fight)

    I really hope after everything he has been through he can do this but I personally don't think Crolla is world level and he will get stopped. European level at the best. He is a credit to boxing how he has come back but Perez should be to strong for him

    I would say this is the crolla card and not the quigg card as crolla actually sells tickets, Quigg couldn't sell out a phone box

    ...although I don't really class Perez as world level, so this is as good a chance as he will ever get.

    The bookies have installed Perez as 8/13 favourite for this with Crolla at 13/10..

    Really not sure to be honest, I haven't seen any of this guy so I will have to do a bit of research. I really hope Crolla can do it but Perez looks to have a very good record.

    A kind of unmotivated blown up Gamboa beating him in a dull one sided loss is his biggest claim to fame.

    I noticed that and it made me think, still I really don't know though. Good fight though and as mentioned before will be more entertaining than the Abril fight but I hope there are no lasting mental effects from the attack.

    Perez by one sided tko. The reality is, Crolla should not be anywhere near a world title, got ko'd by Matthews, got a gift draw in the second fight and beat a shot John Murray.

    Gift draw? He clearly won the second fight. Mathews was extremely lucky.

    IMO Crolla won the second Matthews fight. Differences in opinion make the third more exciting - hopefully beats Perez and sets that up
