    Looking forward to seeing this fight.
    Should be interesting to say how it plays out.

    Quigley has definitely underperformed as a pro. I thought he would be a contender but he looks to be just a gatekeeper level if that.

    Mosley is a hard worker and awkward as hell, but he seems to have a chip on his shoulder that makes him a bit better than he really should be.

    I'd pick Mosley to win based on that chip on his shoulder, he has more to prove.

    Quigley should win on pure talent but he doesn't really seem to have his heart in boxing anymore.
    He always looks like he comes to fight in round one, but after getting hit a few times he doesn't seem to fight the same, almost a survival mode.

    Just my 2 cents,

    Two guys with lots of expectations hanging over them before they ever made their pro debuts (for different reasons) but neither of whom should ever get within sniffing distance of a championship IMO.

    Sytlistically and in terms of matchmaking parity, actually has the makings of a decent slugfest.

    Who do you favour in this one?

    I think it's great matchmaking, both fighters probably legitimately feel like they are the favorites.

    I'll be rooting for SMJ but it honestly is 50-50.

    Really interesting crossroads fight. I like these kind of fights are getting made.

    Maybe it's his level of opposition but I get the feeling Mosley Jr has learnt something from his losses and has gradually improved a little.
    Fights a bit more of a steady, no frills brand of boxing that's suits his strengths more.

    Quigley undoubtedly more athletically talented with a strong amateur pedigree. But his style I dont think is suited to long term pro success.

    Over 10. I actually side slightly with Jason to hold on to an early lead and squeak home. But agree it's a pretty evenly matched fight all things considered.
