    The Honeyghan that stopped Curry vs the Quartey that stopped Espana and Philips. Who wins?

    Quartey's jab would have disrupted Honeyghan's awkward rhythm.

    Ike late knockout or decision.

    Colin Jones would have a better chance at winning, as far as the British Welters of recent years go.

    Quartey's jab was better and more consistent than Curry's, though Curry was better all around. Curry was better all around technically than pretty much everyone of that era, are you saying Honeyghan would've beaten them all?

    No, of course not. Mantequilla was just stating Quartey would get the better of Honeyghan based on his jab disrupting Honeyghan. I was making the point that it would take more than a good jab to do the job. By stating that Curry had an accurate fast jab, but it did not disuade Honeyghan in thier bout.

    Sorry. I like Honeyghan, but against a top form Quartey, he would never stand a chance.

    I like Ike. That jab was very, very good and would make the difference in this fight.
