Not by the time he fought Quigg, Monroe wasn't! Jamoye ....an ordinary bantam. Only Salinas was fresh , with any slick skills and Quigg barely passed that test. Framptons record is better. No saying it's not a competitive fight, but we have to be realistic about things too.
In terms of world title level at super-bantam - he IS 'ordinary'. Thats all I meant, that he was never a serious world title challenger at world level at 122. No disrespect to the guy at all...:good
I would agree with that, plus a 12 rounder with Hirales was very good preparation and experience at the time also stopping previously unstopped Parodi was an okay win too. Since beating Munroe, Quigg has a draw with Salinas then three wins against low level opposition some at short notice, Eddie has to take the rap for this, Quigg can only fight who is put in front of him.
People really do underestimate Quigg.. Quigg and Frampton are the 2nd and 3rd best fighters in the UK in my eyes, both equally as talented as each other..........:smile
Agree with you, Quigg is underestimated... But, he isn't the same level of fighter Frampton is in my opinion.
