    Didn't you claim Martinez was going to KO Quigg early? Can Quigg be matched with any decent fighter you wouldn't predict to KO him? :think

    Think the poll may be slightly underrating Donaire's punch resistance. He was stopped by giant featherweight Walters but to my knowledge that's the only time he's ever been hurt.

    Quigg got outboxed for 5-6 rounds by cuban Salinas before Salinas slowed down and it ended in a draw. The brit guy did not look a million dollars !

    Quigg's improved since then and Salinas can be a tricky customer.

    Yeah but I officially picked Quigg by KO:yep

    Quigg beats most guys at Bantamweight not named Rigondeaux, Donaire or Frampton.

    Didn't Darchinyan hurt him a few times in their rematch? I can't remember how badly it was but I seem to have a vague memory of him doing so. I might be remembering that wrong though. But I definitely remember thinking that he gave him a lot of trouble prior to the stoppage and it looked like he was the one who was on his way to victory.

    if quigg has the discipline and is good enough to just wait and counter donaire, he has a good chance to win. that's what darch was doing.

    if quigg comes at donaire, he's getting ko'd.

    It's not an easy fight to predict. Quigg is a damned good fighter and many have been underrating him for quite a while now.

    respect your opinion serge but i really dont rate quigg much i see him as below rigo frampton and donaire in that order i feel he got lucky with the kiko fight i know thats how it goes sometimes but he was definatly looking like he was in for a struggle

    if only kiko could have taken him more rounds it would have answered a bit more about quigg

    I had a sneaky feeling he was going to stop Kiko, who I like too. I'm not just basing my opinion of him of that fight though. He's impressed my numerous times in the past too. I've always rated him behind Frampton, but like I said I feel many have been underrating him and I don't think there's much separating them. He might not be on Rigo's level, or even Donaire's, but I still think he's a very good fighter.

    I like Donaire but he is pretty much done imo and Quigg is gonna whoop him.

    I can't remember Darchinyan hurting him much, but Darch was ahead at the time of the stoppage.
