Scott Quigg - Jamie Arthur UK Fight night live thread

[Beanz]

Will be interesting to gauge Quiggs progression after Framptons good performance last week. Does he need to stop Arthur to be considered ahead of the Irish lad.

Arthur's not a particularly technical fighter, and shouldn't prove to be too much of a problem for Quigg. He does have a great engine, and is likely to make it into the last third of the fight at least. Quigg will want the KO if he is really to be impressive.

You are right and I think Arthur is a bigger test for Quigg than Hughes was for Frampton. Will be interesting if Quigg gets a fight with Munroe tho.

Murray looking a little rusty against a quite average opponent.

Nice threads, black robe with Gold detailing. Important when you are defending the most beautiful belt in the world. Quigg in 5.

Okay, I'm going to throw my hat on Quigg in 7 impressive rounds.

Quigg needs to throw more hooks close in. Arthur looks huge.

[superheavyrhun]

Okay....not going as I'd envisioned, and I'm chuffed about it. I may have a Welsh slant on this, but I've got Arthur taking 1,3 and of course 4 on a 10-8. 39-36 Arthur.

[superheavyrhun]

Forget what I said on my prediction, I don't know s**t. Cracking fight, and giving Quigg the fifth.

[Beanz]

That is a sweet left hook to finish it. Ricky Hatton would be proud of that. Premature stoppage maybe, but great performance by Quigg. Showed composure and quality.
