London I think this is as 50/50 fight as you can get. The value then has to be with Munroe who has fought (very bravely) in Japan for a world title. Munroe has bags of heart, Quigg interests me. He is the better pure boxer but really he has less a resume then Bute!
Inexperience and potential against experience and toughness. I wouldnt go big on this but for me Quigg wins...

As it happens, a good friend of mine is part of Quigg's camp, and I know he's been training VERY hard for this fight, and will be at his best. I hope he wins, he's a great guy.
But I question whether he's at the same level as Munroe? I am not convinced. Quigg is a top level British fighter, and probably a high level Euro fighter. Is he world class? He hasn't proven this yet. Munroe has.
I'm not going large on this one, but getting almost +200 on what I THINK is the somewhat better fighter is too tempting to pass up completely.

Thanks Mack,
Your opinion is one I definitely listen to.
