    As the title states

    Scott Quigg is due to return in November, states he wants a world class opponent for his first fight back, possibly a world title shot

    My question is: Can Quigg return from a broken jaw that in his own words "left me looking like the Elephant Man for a few days" to be a contender on the world stage or capture a legitimate world title?

    Broken jaws have been the beginning of the end for many fighters down the years, will Scott be another one? :bbb

    Didn't look like the worse break, although I've heard he had complications since. I think it would be a mistake diving straight back in to a hard fight in general.

    Whenever a fighter who has had a similar injury has gone back in at the deep, they have struggled in there first fight back, which is only natural, as you would be thinking how your jaw is going to hold up.

    Be interesting to see who his comeback opponent is.

    Yes. Quigg's stock is low after ****ing away the first half of the Frampton fight and the fight was boring generally. Needs a big name to appeal to the fans. Donaire is getting older and Eddie has pulled off some seriously big names recently. Don't see why it can't happen.

    What weight is he returning at? He looked drained as **** on the scales againts Frampton.

    Should do feather imo.

    Many big names have been thrown about before with Quigg and none have ever materialised


    Hes talked about all the names in SBW apart from Doniare and Rigo but said he can go to FW if the fight is worth it

    why not Selby same promoter same tv deal and If Frampton were to beat Santa Cruz Quigg would steal a future fight.

    If the jaw is right would be a good move and good fight imo

    Doubt we'll be hearing much from Quigg in the future. The jackal took his soul!

    After Quigg and L Smith have lost their paper titles, Gallagher will be bumping his artificial win record back up. Ageing African super-flys should start limbering up.
