    Munroe has fought at World Level and Quigg got KD in his last fight at British level. Should be a good fight but I'm picking Munroe by decision. I'm suprised he's the under-dog.

    I think Monroe will edge it, points.

    I think Quigg is gonna take it by very close decision, but those odds on Munroe are quite tempting.

    What are the odds looking like on a Munroe stoppage?

    :shock:

    Munroe all the way. Gonna put a few quid down on it, very favourable odds. I think he should have been made favourite.

    It wasn't long ago people were saying Quigg was the best SBW in Britain and Ireland. Pretty shocked to see the poll 21-2 in favour of the bin man.

    I can't see anything other than Munroe on points , he's still got his ring craft , boxes very cutely and gives nothing away

    Munroe UD

    I hope for fair judges, bet a bit on Munroe, but I think will be a UD, so...

    Munroe on points big at the weight & his experience at a higher level has been overlooked.

    The bookies may well have underestimated Munroe.

    Quigg close decision IMO, just slightly sharper work early on to hold off a late crisis. Could easily swing the other way if Munroe starts fast.

    I think Quigg has been able to put away guys with shots that wont bother Munroe.
    Mainly because he has a good defence they wont land, and he has a solid chin even if they do. Munroe is bigger and I'm not sure Quigg has been with someone Munroes size.
    The porblem is Munroe doesnt have the spee to land a big shot on Quigg. But he might be able to work the body which I think he will. Ultimately I see this starting out as a cagey affair with Munroe attacking the body and wearing Quigg down to grind out a UD.
    Close by maybe 2 rounds.

    I think Munores slow start will give Quigg a slight early lead. Maybe 3-2 after 5.

    But i think munroes incredible tank and strength will push Quigg back and he'll regain control.

    But then i think that Quiggs workrate come back and will give him just enough to get a tight points victory.

    Very impressed with quigg and im sorry but as for the knockdown, you cant read anything into that. It means nothing. He came back to knock him out.

    Quigg somewhere around the 115-113 region. Few hard rounds to score so i also expect and slightly bizzare scorecard in there too.

    Due to the odds I couldnt resist a fun punt on Munroe. Its going to be close but the bookeis got this wrong I think.
