Is this at 175. If so, what on earth is Tony Quigley doing at that weight, he even admitted himself that he didn't belong at 168.
Quigley weighed 181 for his last fight The only time he's been below the super middleweight limit was his title fights
Great step up i think jeffries will be a different fighter ,training with tommy brookes and i hear he is going to be boxing at super middleweight,Jeffries wins ko
I think Maloney's plan for Jeffries is to Ricky Burns him out to the Sunderland public, probably keep him milling around at domestic level until a WBU shot comes about.
I'm reserving judgment on Jeffries until I watch him fight again after his time in America. If he hasn't improved a lot though I can't see him going anywhere.
Not a bad fight,i don`t know how good Quigley looked last time,but a Quigley of 2 years ago would of been a good test.He is to small for 175 and Jeffries could well get an impressive knockout
big step up but also against a fighter who would be 15 pounds away from his weight! Quigley has no business above 160.
Its a decent fight on paper but Quigley might be out of his depth here if it is up at 175 because Quigley should be a middleweight and inactivity and injury over the past 18 months may have taken their toll. its a shame because even after the Smith loss I thought he could do well domestically at middleweight but he has just been marred by injury. Still lets see come fight night.
