Wasn't Quigg in the wings for the Booth-Arthur winner?

    Was that not guaranteed? :huh I recall he was supposed to be the #1 contender to one of the titles.

    Quigg vs. Booth sounds like fun; hopefully we do see it.

    It's been confirmed by the EBU that Booth will be facing Kiko Martinez for the Euro title like Maloney said. Purse bids to be made soon. I'm guessing Booth will be made to vacate the British title.

    Ure more likely to see Quigg vs Arthur for either the British or Commonwealth belt.

    i think quigg beats both of them at the minute, booth looked old against arthur on saturday and arthur can be drawn into a war and cuts easy.

    if booth is fighting for the euro title i hope he looks better than on saturday or he could get hurt.

    I wouldn't put Quigg in with Booth just yet.

    Even though Booth is just short of world class, he's still capable of handily beating all the European level fighters out there.

    Arthur vs Quigg would be a messy fight, I'd prefer Matthew Marsh to be honest.

    Quigg looks the part and has lots of potential, but his opposition to date has been relatively weak. An inbetween opponent would be ideal.

    Booth will tool Martinez something rotten, 118-110 or similar.

    Quigg vs Arthur is a good fight as is Martinez vs Booth.

    If Booth wins he can defend agaisnt Munroe.
    Winner of Quigg vs Arthur can fight Frampton. The winners fight for the lot.
